Porch Light

Lyrics

The darkest night I ever seen
 It was the night you came to me
 on your knees whispering 'I'm sorry'
 Keeping time with your heartbeat
 I danced along on two left feet
 You kissed my cheek
 and left me on a city street.
 Tell me where'd you go when you left my home on the bike alone
 There was room for me on your handlebars
 We could've seen the stars
 You wanna live a life of restlessness
 Wander 'round singin' the blues
 You find solace in the bar-room girls
 they got nothing to lose
 You want a little life of loneliness –
 Baby, so do I
 I wanna sit under the porch light and watch the yellow moon rise
 If I were to let you go
 how far you'd fall I'll never know
 I'd grab your toes and swing you like a circus show
 Tame the tiger, swallow fire,
 Tip-toe 'cross the tightrope wire
 Would you help me find another stone to grind and another man to mind?
 Would you recognize that I might be a prize
 I might be a prize?
 You wanna live a life of restlessness
 Wander 'round singin' the blues
 You find solace in the bar room girls,
 they got nothing to lose.
 You wanna live a life of loneliness -
 Baby, so do I
 I wanna sit under the porch light and watch the yellow moon rise.
