Lyrics
Wouldn't be the first time love made a fool of me
Love has previously caused me to appear foolish.
Wouldn't even care, but now you're here to see
My indifference towards love changed because of your presence.
It comes as no surprise
I expected this outcome.
Just leave the light on
Keep the light on, possibly as a symbol of hope or waiting.
What I wouldn't give if you could have it all:
I wish you could experience everything:
The sun that's going down
The setting sun.
The bed that breaks the fall
A comforting bed.
The cradle and the bow
Metaphorical references to nurturing and protection.
So you can take comfort now
To provide solace or reassurance.
You can take comfort now.
Reiteration of offering comfort.
Sometimes a heart can break and make it's own relief
A broken heart finds its own way to heal.
The way a cold dark night invites the fire thief
The analogy of a cold night welcoming the "fire thief," symbolizing a comforting force amidst darkness.
He wants to show us how
The "fire thief" desires to demonstrate something significant.
So we can take comfort now
So we can find solace or reassurance.
We can take comfort now
Repetition emphasizing finding comfort.
We can take comfort now
Further emphasis on seeking comfort.
Leave the light on.
Reiteration of leaving the light on, reinforcing hope or waiting.
