I woke up this morning
Same old questions in my head
At least the weather's getting cooler now
No longer forced to leave my bed
The sun shines through my window
Makes my old house creak and moan
Reminds me of the old lady down the market
Sitting in the sun, stretching her weary bones
And I'll leave the light on
So you can see
I'll leave the light on
Should you decide to visit me
Time is time and time is time and time just rolls along
It's with you every second
Though it has no shape or form
Sometimes I get so anxious
As your path leads you away
But I know it's only my loneliness
And it passes with the day
I've been an angry and a jealous man
And I have no right to be
Perhaps it's just my wicked, wicked ways
Catching up to me
Still I've done my time
And I've paid the price
After all what's just a little pain
If I learn from my mistakes
Then my loss becomes my gain
Still I'll leave the light on
So you can see
I'll leave the light on
Should you decide to visit me
This is the end that is no end
With the beginning yet to come
I'm going to throw the doors wide open
I'm going to let my spirit run
I'm going to take the path that is most yielding
And in time my steps shall disappear
I'll pound my head against the wall no more
I'll be still so I can hear
And if I drop all my pretensions
About how much you broke my heart
I really do feel grateful
As we drift further apart
I will follow my distant vision
I'm going to listen to my voice
You showed me the way to freedom
You really made the only choice
And so you see
I'll leave the light on
Should you decide
Should you ever decide to visit me
