There's a light that I leave on It's just an illusion 'cause there's no one at home It shines just like it used to When I could come home to you There's a song on the radio I love to hear it 'cause you loved it so It reminds me of the things we used to do When I could come home to you [Chorus] Guess I'm just fooling myself I've always been a fool for you I'm still living for the day my dreams come true And I can come home to you Like the ring I still wear My heart's still waiting It'll always be here Do you ever think about those days too? When I could home to you [Chorus] There's a light that I leave on It's just an illusion 'cause there's no one at home...
