Summer plantin's gone to seed
Seed's a plenty for times in need
Leave your light on dear darlin'
Your eyes will shine for me again
Night's a fallin' black as coal
Coal was warmer in those days
Leave your light on dear darlin'
Your eyes will shine for me again
Cryin' wolves at my door
Cryin' babies will cry no more
Leave your light on dear darlin'
Rain and sickness fills the air
Breathe the rest for better wear
Leave your light on dear darlin'
Your eyes will shine for me again
Chorus
Chorus
Leave your light on dear darlin'
Your eyes will shine for me again
Your eyes will shine for me again
