Leave the Light on Lyrics

by Beth Hart

I see myself with dirty face,
I cut my luck with a dirty ace,
I leave the light on,
I leave the light on.

I went from zero minus ten,
I'll drink your wine,
Then I stole your man,
I leave the light on,
I leave the 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 the light on.

Little girl hiding underneath the bed
Was it something I did
Must be something I said
I leave the light on,
I better leave the light on

Yes, I wanna love
And I wanna live
I don't know much about it,
And I never did. No no?

17 and I'm all messed up inside
I cut myself just to feel alive
I leave the light on
I leave a 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 the 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,
No 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

Lalalala? I leave thatI 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
