[Intro] Mm, yeah I still hear your keys in the hall I still reach for you when the room goes quiet Mm, yeah [Verse 1] You left your jacket on the back of my chair I keep meaning to move it, but I never go there The coffee machine still hums like you’re here in the kitchen And I stand there half awake, like I’m waiting for a mission I tried to be fine, tried to act like a man Tried to fold up the hurt and fit it in my hands But every little thing in this place has your name on it And I’m learning the hard way what it costs to want it [Pre-Chorus] So I’m pacing the floor at 2 a.m. Thinking maybe I should call, then I don’t again There’s a crack in the dark where the morning comes through And I’m stuck in between what I lost and what’s true [Chorus] Leave the door light on Just in case I’m wrong Just in case I come back When the night gets long I’m not saying forever I’m not saying I’m strong Leave the door light on Leave the door light on [Verse 2] I drove past your street with the radio low Saw somebody on the porch and I let it go That old brick house still looks like a place people stay Mine feels like a room that the wind blew away My friends keep saying, “Man, you gotta move on” And I nod like I get it, but they don’t know this song It’s not that I want to live in a place that broke me It’s just hard to cut loose when the hurt still owns me [Pre-Chorus] So I’m pacing the floor at 2 a.m. Thinking maybe I should call, then I don’t again There’s a crack in the dark where the morning comes through And I’m stuck in between what I lost and what’s true [Chorus] Leave the door light on Just in case I’m wrong Just in case I come back When the night gets long I’m not saying forever I’m not saying I’m strong Leave the door light on Leave the door light on [Bridge] Maybe love is not a house you burn Maybe it’s the thing you leave to learn Maybe I don’t need a clean goodbye Maybe I just need one more night And if I show up changed, don’t ask me where I’ve been Just let me in, or don’t let me in Either way, I’ll face it now I can’t keep living in the pause somehow [Final Chorus] Leave the door light on Just in case I’m wrong Just in case I come back When the night gets long I’m not saying forever I’m not saying I’m strong Leave the door light on Leave the door light on Leave the door light on Yeah, leave the door light on [Outro] Mm, yeah I still hear your keys in the hall But I’m learning to walk through the dark Mm, yeah Leave the door light on
