Leave A Light On For Me
The world today feels suffocating
With darkness closing in tight.
We stumble along blindly
Searching for a light.
In the dark we are helpless
And subcumb to our fear.
Only a light can save us
From the hatred we hold dear.
Turn a light on for the sinners,
Turn a light on for the saints.
Turn a light on for the artist
So we may finally see what he paints
Shine light into the Valley
Of the Shadow of Death,
So we may go gracefully
Releasing our last breath.
Then together we will wake
And see the world lit anew;
Leave a light on for me, darling,
And I'll turn one on for you.
