[Verse 1]
When I wake up at 3 in the morning
Witching hour too strong
Like a witch, I know I need my potion
I, I, I might find love
I'm looking for it in an alphabet soup cup
I'm looking under my thumb (I'm looking under my thumb)
It's looking like a little rain cloud loves me
I, I, I
[Chorus]
I'll try for all of my life
Just to find someone who leaves on the light for me
Leaves on the light for me
Ah-ah
[Verse 2]
Mr Magic and the trapdoor ladies
Big walk, no talk
Glitz and glamour doesn't age like wine does
I, (I-I) I, (I-I) I, (I-I) I'm countin' on love
When the book is in the final chapter
Man, it's always sad to go
Whatcha taking from the rightful lender?
I, I, I
[Chorus]
I'll try for all of my life
Just to find someone who leaves on the light for me
Leaves on the light for me
Ah-ah
I'll try for all of my life
Just to find someone who leaves on the light for me, ah
Leaves on the light for me
Ah-ah
