The engine revs in that pickup truck,
another night you're gone,
running from God only knows,
but i'll leave the light on for you.
you left town one night with nothing but a note,
you had to find yourself you said,
but if you ask me, you belong right here,
but i'll leave the light on for you.
it's the day we first met,
where you told me you loved me,
but you're nowhere in site,
but i'll leave the light on for you.
and i'm sitting on the couch alone,
just like every other night,
but i'll leave the light on for you,
just incase you decide to come home.
