lyrics

Lights On, I was pacing in the hallway
Lights On, I was pacing all night
Lights On, didn't see a soul all day
Missing all our guiding light

Lights On, didn't get any sleep now
Lights On, didn't sleep for days
Lights On, tell me what you believe now
Staring down everything you gotta change

And oh, how are you gonna react?
Why can you never relax?
Maybe I just don't know how to act around somebody like you

Lights On, I'll tell you what I'm thinking
Lights On, I'll finally tell you what's there
Lights On, when I couldn't stop drinking
It meant the world that you still cared

Lights On, you were having a hard time
Lights On, you had a really hard year
Your light's one each and every nighttime
If you need a friend then I'll be right here

And oh, how are you gonna react?
Why can you never relax?
Maybe I just don't know how to act around somebody like you

You could see the stars in Brooklyn for the very first time
The power was cut, you were on my mind
I'm always gonna love you even if you're not mine
My light's always on for you

And Oh how are you gonna react?
Why can you never relax?
Maybe I just don't know how to act
Around somebody like you

You could see the stars in Brooklyn for the very first time
The power was cut, you were on my mind
I'm always gonna love you even if you're not mine]
My light's always on for you

Breakdown in the middle of the highway
Breakdown in the middle of the night
Break down these complicated reasons
That we leave on our lights

The lights on
My light's always on for you
