I can't be no use to you if I can't be good for myself

I can't make it better for anybody else

Maybe it's our light's gone out

Turned off in an empty house

Nothing's gonna change until I do

And I can't be no use to you if I can't make this on my own

I can't make it better if I can't face this all alone

And it would be so easy to stay easy, and that's what I fear

I'd never want to look back and regret it all by staying here, and

Maybe it's our light's gone out

Turned off in an empty house

Back there's not a place that I can be

On my own

So far from home

From where we've been

I'm scared, and yet I'm not alone

I know that you are here with me

Inside my heart, you'll always be

You're all I've ever known

I'm just afraid of slipping backwards

Back there's not a place that I can be

All that I am is slowly turning

And now you're not in front of me

Baby, it's the last thing that I'd ever want to do

Is go ahead and leave you now

Maybe it's the moment that you find a way to run

'Cause, baby, I can't turn around

Maybe it's our light's gone out

Turned off in an empty house

Back there's not a place that I can be
