Ever since I saw your face

Your constant love and changing pace

I watch the shape begin to blur

Never seems to falter


Ever since we grew apart

The days before I filled your heart

Never seems to feel like anything at all


Leave a light on as we sway

The only thing we have that's true

Leave a light on as the silent record plays

The only one that’s left is you


Ever since the air ran thin

I felt the night crawl back within

We lost the spark beneath the fur

Never seems to falter


Ever since we hit the floor

The silence broke through even more

Never seems to feel like anything at all


Leave a light on as we sway

(You can’t control the speed of life)

The only thing we have that's true

(There’s no second side now)

Leave a light on as the silent record plays

The only one that’s left is you (is you is you is you)


It's a different point of view

And you can't see through

But you will, until, you can’t believe it’s real


Every moment meaningless 

A victim of your restlessness

Your open-ended holiness

The end of every happiness


Leave a light on as we sway

(You can’t control the speed of life)

The only thing we have that's true

(There’s no second side now)

Leave a light on as the silent record plays

The only one that’s left is you
