[Verse 1]
Last thing that I said to you
In the driveway muttering profane
"I never want to see your face again
I never want to see your face again"

[Chorus]
But I will leave the light on
Leave the light on
Leave the light on
Leave the light on
In case you're coming back

[Verse 2]
Change my heart and count the days
All I remember all I remember is 'we'
Things fall to pieces
Hold the reasons for another day

[Chorus]
But I will leave the light on
Leave the light on
Leave the light on
Leave the light on
In case you're coming back
But I will leave the light on
Leave the light on repeats
In case you're coming back

[Bridge]
I saw your car in the street
I saw you looking back
Why does everything end up like that?
I saw your car in the street
I saw you looking back
Why does everything wind up like that?

[Chorus]
But I will leave the light on
Leave the light on
Leave the light on
In case you're coming back
