[Verse 1] There’s a coffee cup still by the window And your jacket hanging by the door I keep telling myself I’ll move it But I never make it that far The house gets quiet after midnight Every shadow knows your name And I still leave the porch light burning Like you might come home again [Pre-Chorus] Some things time can carry Some things time can’t change [Chorus] When the porch light fades And the whole world goes still I can hear your voice in the old oak trees Rolling down that hill I know goodbye was never something Either one of us could say So I’ll keep a little light on Till the porch light fades [Verse 2] Your old records keep on turning Like they don’t know you’re gone There’s a crack in every silence Where your laughter still lives on I’ve learned how to live with missing I’ve learned how to stand alone But every road I take still somehow Feels like it’s leading home [Pre-Chorus] Some hearts learn to let go Mine just learned to wait [Chorus] When the porch light fades And the whole world goes still I can hear your voice in the old oak trees Rolling down that hill I know goodbye was never something Either one of us could say So I’ll keep a little light on Till the porch light fades [Bridge] Maybe love don’t disappear Maybe it just changes shape Maybe every little memory Is a light we get to save [Final Chorus] When the porch light fades And the morning starts to rise I can feel you in the quiet Like a hand against my side And if goodbye was never spoken Maybe love just found a way To keep a little light on After the porch light fades [Outro] Yeah, I’ll keep a little light on After the porch light fades
