Leave The Light On

Beth Hart

I seen myself with a dirty face, 
I cut my luck with a dirty ace 
I leave the light on, 
I leave that light on
I went from zero to minus ten 
I drank your wine then 
I stole your man 
I leave the light on, 
I leave that light on. 

Daddy ain't that bad he just plays rough
I ain't that scarred when I'm covered up 
I leave the light on, I leave that light on
Little girl hiding underneath the bed 
was it something I did 
Must be something I said 
I leave the light on, better leave the light on. 

I wanna love 
I wanna live 
I don't know much about it 
I never did 

17 and I'm all messed up inside 
I cut myself just to feel alive 
I leave the light on, 
I leave that light on 
21 on the run,on the run,on the run,
from myself, from myself and everyone 
I leave the light on, 
Better leave the light on. 

Cause I wanna love 
And I wanna live 
I don't know much about it 
And I never did, 
I don't know what to do, can the damage be undone 
I swore to God that I'd never be what I've become 

Lucky stars and fairy tales 
I'm gonna bathe myself in a wishin' well 
Pretty scars from cigarettes 
I...never will forget, I...never will forget 

I'm still afraid to be alone 
wish that moon would follow me home 
I leave the light on, 
I leave that light on 
I ain't that bad I'm just messed up 
I ain't that sad but I'm sad enough 

Cause I wanna love 
And I wanna live 
I don't know much about it 
And I never did, 
I don't know what to do, can the damage be undone 
I swore to God that I'd never be what I've become 

na na na na na na na na... 
I leave that light, I leave that light, I leave that light on

God bless the child with the dirty face, who cuts her luck with a dirty ace 
She leaves the light on, 
I leave that light on
