Story Behind The Song

Song about letting a lover go and hoping they find their way back

Lyrics

I'll leave the light on

Sometimes you gotta roam
Search to find a home
before you realize home is what you left behind

I've tried to make it clear
How much I want you here
But there's an answer there that only you can find

I can see the longing in your hungry, restless soul
I see it in your eyes, you need to go

I'll leave the light on
I'll leave the key beneath beneath the mat
Should you ever choose the road that leads you back
You've set your sights on
Brighter lights and bigger dreams
But that world out there ain't always what it seems
But then again fate might have just one more ace up its sleeve
Waiting for someone like you who believes
If you wake one day and find the dream is gone
I will be waiting
I'll leave the light on

You know I love you so
I won't ask you not to go
And leave you wondering about the things you might have missed
So baby don't look back
Find the things you lack
And take the journey now on which your heart insists

Leave no stone unturned, no road left unexplored
That little voice inside can't be ignored

But, I'll leave the light on..
