Don't forget to leave the light on

I've worn out my boots, been beaten by the road

Got scars on my hands where I've fallen on the stone

But dreams of you keep me warm in the cold

There's a compass in my heart shows me where to go

Now I found myself under a distant star

Never thought I'd go so far

Now I find myself beneath the darkest moon

Knowing all I need is you

Don't forget to leave the light on, I'm coming home real soon

Don't forget to leave the light on, it guides me home to you

There's a patchwork of promises I'm trying hard to keep

A basket full of memories, that haunt me in my sleep

But dreams of your laughter, of your love and sweetest sighs

Lift my heavy heart under the weight of our goodbyes

I've been adrift in the ocean, lost out at sea

But I'm coming back to the arms, where I know I'm meant to be

Don't forget to leave the light on, I'm coming home real soon

Don't forget to leave the light on, it guides me home to you

Don't forget I rely on, everything you do

So don't forget to leave the light on, it guides me home to you

Until you see me in the distance, in the last few rays of light

Until you hear me, calling out your name, from the darkness of the night

Don't forget to leave the light on, I'm coming home real soon

Don't forget to leave the light on, coming home real soon

Don't forget to leave the light on, guides me home to you
