I'll leave the light on when you go away, hey
Even when that night come you can find your way, hey
Even when you're leaving, got my love all night, all day
I'll leave the light on always
Packing up my bags again
Long gone with the midnight wind
Lord knows these situations
And all occasions
I'm in the dark again
Packing up is time to go
Don't forget me on the California coast
Lord knows how it tears your patience
And expectations
That's when she said
I'll leave the light on when you go away, hey
Even when that night come you can find your way, hey
Even when you're leaving, got my love all night, all day
I'll leave the light on always
Hotel walls and a TV light
Northbound chain on a quiet night
I know when the daylight's breaking
You'll be waiting
When I come back again
A couple thousand miles to go
I never really feel alone
Even when the nights get late and
Summer's fading
That's when she says
I'll leave the light on when you go away, hey
Even when that night come you can find your way, hey
Even when you're leaving, got my love all night, all day
I'll leave the light on always
I'll leave the light on when you go away, hey
Even when that night come you can find your way, hey
Even when you're leaving, got my love all night, all day
I'll leave the light on always
