Leave the Light On

Frost coats the window
The cold reveals my breath
Snow falls in darkness
As I wait here on the steps

We were only boys
Or so we told ourselves that night
You lost your composure
Now I’m lost in hindsight

Could I have changed the outcome?
Or was it written on the wall?
What is left to salvage?
Do you care at all?

I’ll leave the light on for you
I keep hoping that you’ll come to
But you caused this cold spell
Only time will tell
There’s nothing else I can do

I want to forgive
And give you another chance
I want to relive
And replay the circumstance
I want to forgive
And give you another chance
I want to forgive
I want to forget
I want to relive

I’ll leave the light on for you
I keep hoping that you’ll come to
But you caused this cold spell
Only time will tell
There’s nothing else I can do
Because this is your fault
