 Please leave  your light on for  me
 Let it shine  all through the night
 I know by now  you're not expecting  me
 I've been so  long out of sight
 I'm coming through  the darkest hour  now, mama
 Don't give up  on me just yet
 Well I got  no excuses  for ya
 But I sure  got some regrets
 I sure got  some regrets
 I went out from the halls  of grace
 Turned my back on my own
Please  leave your light  on for me
 Cause I've been taking  the long  way home
 Please go  easy when you see  me, mama
 Cause I just  might fall apart
 I know I've  tried your patience
 I know I've stretched your heart
 The sky  fell down hard upon  me
 I've been  crawling in the dirt
 Nobody's fault  but mine  for sure
 And not just me who's hurt
 And not just me  who's hurt
 I went out from the halls  of grace
 My soul turned into stone
 Please  leave your light on  for me
 Cause I've been taking  the long  way home
