Leave the Light On
Chasing Hope: Embracing Light in the Dark Lyrics
Lyrics
You started over yesterday
You initiated a new beginning recently
In dirty rain the sky was so grey
In unpleasant weather with gray skies
You listen to the engine sing
You pay attention to the sound of the engine
And you forget about everything
Engrossed to the extent that you forget about everything else
Let the sun shine
Encouraging the sunlight to shine brightly
Like it's never shined
As if it has never shone before
Across a blue sky
Over a clear blue sky
And watch the time fly
Observing time pass swiftly
Free all the lonely boys who love no one
Advocating for the liberation of lonely boys who lack affection
And dream on through the years and leave the light on
To persist in dreaming through the years and keep a light on
You never felt a night so cold
You've never experienced such a cold night
Your angry eyes were tightly shut closed
Your eyes filled with anger tightly shut
You fell out of love with rock and roll
You fell out of love with the essence of rock and roll
You shot a hole in your radio
You metaphorically damaged your connection to music
Let the sun shine
Encouraging the sunlight once again
Like it's never shined
As if it has never illuminated the sky
Across a blue sky
Over a serene blue sky
And watch the time fly
Observing time elapse quickly
Free all the lonely boys who love no one
Advocating for the liberation of lonely boys who lack affection (repeated)
And dream on through the years and leave the light on
To persist in dreaming through the years and keep a light on (repeated)
Don't you dream on
Discouraging the act of dreaming (contrasting with line 11)
