Could You Put Your Light On Please? lyrics

Artist Harry Chapin
Album(s) Heads & Tales

Lyrics

She moved so well 'cause she was a dancer
She went sliding through my questions
Gliding 'round the answer

Whatever it was, she knew it was holy
And each time I tried to hold her
Her smile came sad and slowly
She said, "no one knows me."

Could you put your light on please, it's kind of dark tonight
And I feel a little lonely, yes, I need a little light
Could you put your light on please, let me hear a friendly sound
I could make it through 'til morning if you could let your light shine down

She had a dream, I had my typewriter
While I was hacking out such a heavy world
She was weaving one much lighter
But I'll never know just how much it cost her
And as I slept beside her something turned and tossed her
And it did till I lost her

Could you put your light on please, it's kind of dark tonight
And I feel a little lonely, yes, I need a little light
Could you put your light on please, let me hear a friendly sound
I could make it through 'til morning if you could let your light shine down

Bright times were brighter than they'd ever been before, I tell you
Night times were lighter, but they'll never, never be no more

Could you put your light on please, it's kind of dark tonight
And I feel a little lonely, yes, I need a little light
Could you put your light on please, let me hear a friendly sound
I could make it through 'til morning if you could let your light shine down
