lyrics

she says she'll take me home
but she knows i haven't been drinking
she says there's nothing wrong
but so much happens in the
time you spend blinking
and there's just one light that's on tonight
and i let it shine, but i pull the shades closed tight
there's just one light that's on tonight

she says "i've never been here before
it's the wrong side of town
and these bands all sound the same"
she says "there's nothing wrong
or at least no one left you can find to blame"
and she's the only light that shines tonight
and she may try to put it out, but she's burning bright
she's the only light that shines tonight

she says she hates the desert rain
but it looks just like she must feel this evening
she says there's nothing wrong
that won't be allright when i start leaving
there's just one light that's on tonight
and it may lead me home, or get me in a fight
there's just one light that's on tonight
