I never wanted a fortress
I just wanted a home
To put my worries and failures
And make them not alone
Look for a hand reaching out
Thought everybody knows
To keep the light on
I saw it coming in waves
Thought it was low tide
I should be running for cover
Cause it is high time
That I know better to be
A better friend to me
I’ll keep the light on
I guess we know it never is
The way we dreamed it to be
Thought you’d be running back to me
But I was wrong
And I wonder if you think of me
The way you drift in my thoughts
I think I loved you too much
I’ll keep the light on
I won’t keep beating myself up
Cause you never called
During the end of the world
I guess you were better off
I didn’t know I could be erased so easily
I still keep the light on
I guess we know it never is
The way we dreamed it to be
Thought you’d be running back to me
And I wonder if you think of me
You’re in my thoughts so casually
I think I loved you too much
I’ll keep the light on
I won’t keep beating myself up
Cause you never called
During the end of the world
I guess you were better off
But I know better to be
A better friend to me
I’ll keep the light on
