Would you believe me now

If I told you I got caught up in a wave?

Almost gave it away

Would you hear me out

If I told you I was terrified for days?

Thought I was gonna break

Oh, I couldn't stop it

Tried to slow it all down

Crying in the bathroom

Had to figure it out

With everyone around me saying

"You must be so happy now"

*Oh, if you keep reaching out

Then I'll keep coming back

And if you're gone for good

Then I'm okay with that

If you leave the light on

Then I'll leave the light on

**And I am finding out

There's just no other way

That I'm still dancing at the end of the day

If you leave the light on

Then I'll leave the light on

And do you believe me now

That I always had the best intentions, babe?

Always wanted to stay

Can you feel me now

That I'm vulnerable in oh-so many ways?

Oh, and I'll never change

Oh, I couldn't stop it

Tried to figure it out

But everything kept moving

And the noise got too loud

With everyone around me saying

"You should be so happy now"

* **

Oh, leave the light on

Oh, would you leave the light on?

If you keep reaching out

Then I'll keep coming back

But if you're gone for good

Then I'm okay with that

If you leave the light on

Then I'll leave the light on

And I am finding out

There's just no other way

That I'm still dancing at the end of the day

If you leave the light on

Then I'll leave the light on

Oh, if you leave the light on

Then I'll leave the light on

Oh, if you leave the light on

Mm
