Aoife O'Donovan - Porch Light lyrics

The darkest night I ever seen It was the night you came to me On your knees whispering 'I'm sorry' Keeping time with your heartbeat I danced along on two left feet You kissed my cheek And left me on a city street. Tell me where'd you go when you left my home on the bike alone There was room for me on your handlebars We could've seen the stars You wanna live a life of restlessness Wander 'round singin' the blues You find solace in the bar-room girls They got nothing to lose You want a little life of loneliness – Baby, so do I I wanna sit under the porch light and watch the yellow moon rise If I were to let you go How far you'd fall I'll never know I'd grab your toes and swing you like a circus show Tame the tiger, swallow fire, Tip-toe 'cross the tightrope wire Would you help me find another stone to grind and another man to mind? Would you recognize that I might be a prize I might be a prize? You wanna live a life of restlessness Wander 'round singin' the blues You find solace in the bar room girls, They got nothing to lose. You wanna live a life of loneliness - Baby, so do I I wanna sit under the porch light and watch the yellow moon rise.
