Words disappear My wit's gone to bed Never know what to say I never know where the cards will lay Here's to feeling not another slip again I'll warm by the fire I'm staying out of the rain Tonight I need you to... Leave the light on for me to go by Leave the light on for me to find My flight's arrived I'm ready for the show My pride's up above But I'm down underneath of it all I came here afraid I'll leave here a wounded man Just a staircase away A place I have made A place I need you to... Leave the light on for me to go by Leave the light on for me to find Leave the light on for me to reach for Leave the light on for me to stay
