[Verse 1] I told you I'd leave a light on In case you ever wanted to come back home You smiled and said you appreciate the gesture I took your every word to heart 'Cause I can't stand us bein' apart And just to show how much I really miss you [Chorus] Every light in the house is on The backyard's bright as the crack of dawn The front walk looks like runway lights It's kind of like noon in the dead of night Every light in the house is on Just in case you ever do get tired of bein' gone Every light in the house is on [Verse 2] If I should ever start forgettin' I'll turn the lights off one by one So you can see that I agree, it's over But until then I want you to know If you look south you'll see a glow That's me waitin' at home each night to hold ya [Chorus] Every light in the house is on The backyard's bright as the crack of dawn The front walk looks like runway lights It's kind of like noon in the dead of night Every light in the house is on Just in case you ever do get tired of bein' gone [Chorus] Oh, every light in the house is on The backyard's bright as the crack of dawn The front walk looks like runway lights It's kind of like noon in the dead of night Every light in the house is on Just in case you ever do get tired of bein' gone Every light in the house is on
