I've been to London, been to Paris, Australia and Rome
There's sexy boys in every city but they're not what I want
Some got money, some got fame, some got cars, some got clothes
But if it just ain't you then I don't wanna know

'Cos, baby, now I realize that I was wrong
When I said I didn't need you so
Miss you bad so now I'm coming home
So you better leave the light on
Wait for me and just leave the light on

It's been like a permanent December
So much colder than I can remember
When I get you back this time I swear that I won't
Won't ever let you go
Won't let you go, no
Won't let you go, go, go, go
Won't let you go, no
Go, go, go, go, no, no, no, no

I've been to New York, been to L.A and to Baton Rouge
I met a boy in every city, no one kept me amused
But don't call me a Lolita, 'cos I don't let 'em through
'Cos I'm saving all my loving for someone and it's you

'Cos, baby, now I realize that I was wrong
When I said I didn't need you so
Miss you bad so now I'm coming home
So you better leave the light on
Wait for me and just leave the light on

It's been like a permanent December
So much colder than I can remember
When I get you back this time I swear that I won't
Won't ever let you go
Won't let you go, no
Won't let you go, go, go, go
Won't let you go, no
Go, go, go, go, no, no, no, no
Won't let you go, go, go, go
Won't let you go, no
Go, go, go, go, no, no, no, no

Hey!
What do you say?
'Cos I've been all around the world and they just ain't the same
Hey!
What do you say?
Without my baby I go crazy and I just gotta scream (ha)

But now I realize that I was wrong
When I said I didn't need you so
Miss you bad so now I'm coming home
So you better leave the light on
Wait for me and just leave the light on

It's been like a permanent December
So much colder than I can remember
When I get you back
This time I swear that I won't
Won't ever let you go
Won't let you go, no

It's been like a permanent December
So much colder than I can remember
When I get you back this time I swear that I won't
Won't ever let you go
Won't let you go, no
Won't let you go, go, go, go
Won't let you go, no
Go, go, go, go, no, no, no, no
Won't let you go, go, go, go
Won't let you go, no
Go, go, go, go, no, no, no, no
