Ali, Ali

When do you think you might come home?

I left the light on

I left the light on

She drove away on a snowmobile

Trying to have some fun

Looking for an adventure

She said I'll be back soon in a little while

Just keep my supper warm

Heard a word from Alaska

Where she put an end to her tracks

And found herself a castle

Change the face but the name's the same

Now she's taking them all by storm

Ali, Ali

When do you think you might come home?

I left the light on

And do you think you're far enough away now

To leave all your troubles behind?

Just leave them all behind

She fell in love with a carpenter

Worked in a café and got herself some snowshoes

She wrote to me and she told me

Biking through the Andes

Hiking through the West Coast

Skiing through the tundra, having fun

Still looking for her adventure

I went to her room just yesterday looking for a clue

And all of her things were still in their place

Trophies and her glasses and I wondered

If I know her at all, anymore

Just a little girl, she's still a little girl

In my dreams, a little girl

She's still my little girl

Ali, Ali

When do you think you might come home?

I left the light on

And do you think you're far enough away now

To leave all your troubles behind?

Just leave them all behind
