So come the evening

I'm out on the dunes

Looking for a token, something to prove

All I remember is more than a flame

In my fantasy, fire



Whatever I've done to receive

Whatever I need to redeem

Whatever you say

Even if I wait a lifetime



I know, I swear

If you leave a light on, if you leave a light on for me

I'll come there

You can leave a light on for me



In comes the morning

I'm stood in my track

Looking at the reasons for me to head back

So unexpected, the kindness you've shown

That I will not forget it



Whatever I've done to receive

Whatever I need to redeem

Whatever you say

Even if I wait a lifetime



I know, I swear

If you leave a light on, if you leave a light on for me

I'll come there

You can leave a light on for me



You breathe the will into the weak

And coach the cage bird to fly free

You ease the lost cause out of me

With your sweet hand to bring me home

I'm not alone, oh, oh, oh



I know, I swear

If you leave a light on, if you leave a light on for me

I'll come there

You can leave a light on for me



I know, I swear

If you leave a light on, if you leave a light on for me

I'll come there

You can leave a light on for me
