Lyrics
LEAVE A LIGHT ON You can look but you won’t see me coming You look right close and you’ll see me running And Honey thems my heels you’re looking at. Once I said I’d never leave you But not I’ve found I can’t believe you And Honey I can’t live like that. Ch So leave a light on in the hallway if you think I’m coming home tonight And if you don’t now honey that’ll be alright Cause I talk and you don’t listen You balk and keep on dishing Out that line bout how you’ll treat me right But you still haven’t seen the light But if you want to see one tonight Leave a light on in the Hallway if you think I’m coming home tonight. 2 I’ll leave here wide ass open Cussing you and I’ll be hoping I’ll never pass this way again But if I try to deceive me I’ve got 15 friends that say they’ll slaid me So honey I guess this is where we end. CH 3 I know where I’ll be before the night is over High as a kite and thinking this over Wondering just how long its gona last Then I get this nice warm feeling Soothes my soul and my hearts a healing If you’d offer now I’d have to pass. LEAVE A LIGHT ON You can look but you won’t see me coming You look right close and you’ll see me running And Honey thems my heels you’re looking at. Once I said I’d never leave you But not I’ve found I can’t believe you And Honey I can’t live like that. Ch So leave a light on in the hallway if you think I’m coming home tonight And if you don’t now honey that’ll be alright Cause I talk and you don’t listen You balk and keep on dishing Out that line bout how you’ll treat me right But you still haven’t seen the light But if you want to see one tonight Leave a light on in the Hallway if you think I’m coming home tonight. 2 I’ll leave here wide ass open Cussing you and I’ll be hoping I’ll never pass this way again But if I try to deceive me I’ve got 15 friends that say they’ll slaid me So honey I guess this is where we end. CH 3 I know where I’ll be before the night is over High as a kite and thinking this over Wondering just how long its gona last Then I get this nice warm feeling Soothes my soul and my hearts a healing If you’d offer now I’d have to pass.
