Do you remember how it felt
when it all crashed down?
Cause I've been trying to
forget but I swear that
I still hear the sound
What started as a gentle
hum began to quiet down
It's turning to a ring
and getting louder now
Chipping away? at the
pavement outside your house
Shut my eyes and hope I wake up
To the wave of the breeze from
your screened in porch Just
promise that you'll leave
the light on To
point me toward true north
Can you feel the arrhythmic
sound of the rain beating down?
It's getting steady now
but I still feel something
hanging around
With every second glance
all in and out of phase
We're few and far between
and getting further away
Been tripping over the
coastline since I left town
Shut my eyes and hope I wake up
To the wave of the breeze from
your screened in porch Just
promise that you'll leave
the light on To
point me toward true north
So hold on tight until
I?m back home Turn away
from the dark when the
sun goes down Just promise
that you?ll leave the light
on to point me
toward true north.
Leave the light on
Leave the light on
Leave the light on
Leave the light on
Shut my eyes and hope I wake up
To the wave of the breeze from
your screened in porch Just
promise that you'll leave
the light on To
point me toward true north

So hold on tight until
I?m back home Turn away
from the dark when the
sun goes down Just promise
that you?ll leave the light
on to point me
