chris smither - leave the light on كلمات أغنية

if i were young again, i’d pay attention – to that
little-known dimension
a taste of endless time
it’s just like water – it runs right through our fingers
but the flavor of it lingers – like a rich, red wine
in those days we were single – we lived them one by one
–
now we hardly see ‘em – they don’t walk – they run
but i’ve got plenty left i’ve set my sight on
don’t wait up – leave the light on – i’ll be – home –
soon

short break

i’ve never seen my life in such a hurry – but if i
stop to worry – i get left behind
it’s just a party, but you don’t get invitations – and
there’s just one destination
you better be on time.
for years we rhymed in couplets – and we sang ‘em two by two
now we hardly rhyme at all – but here’s a few
and if they hurt, there’s bullets left to bite on
don’t wait up – leave the light on – i’ll be – home –
soon

short break

that drummer in my head needs inspiration
there’s a lack of syncopation – and it holds me to a line
it’s just so hard to leave these cages that we’re thinking
by stages we’re just sinkin’ – to a slow decline
for years we lived in waltz time – we danced them
three by three
now it’s hard to dance, but if you stick with me –
we’ve got what we need to spend the night on –
don’t wait up – leave the light on – i’ll be – home –
soon

break

these races that we’ve run were not for glory – no
moral to this story –
we run for peace of mind.
but the race we’re running now is never-ending – sp-ce and time are bending
and there’s no finish line –
i will live to be a hundred – i was born in ’44 – 33 to go, but i ain’t keepin’ score –
i’ve been left for dead before – but i still fight on –don’t wait up – leave the light on
i’ll be home soon

’cause i been left for dead before – but i still fight on –
don’t wait up – leave the light on
i’ll be home soon
