Turn on the lights before you go
I want to watch you close the door
I want to know just how you hold yourself
When I’m not with you anymore

Just leave the lights on when you go
I want to watch you walk away
Oh, though it hurts to be alone
I’m so much better off this way

When they’re on again, I see
How long I’d been there in the dark
How every time I thought you near
You were already gone
And I was waiting for you
Waiting for you
Waiting for you

So leave the lights on when you say goodbye
I want to know you’re gone for good this time
If you return, you’ll see the lights inside
But I won’t be homе
No, I won’t be home
I won’t be homе
