The Walkabouts
-
The light will stay on
I go to sleep, before
I go to sleep, before
the devil wakes
The devil wakes
and I wake up, before
And i wake up, before
the angels take
The angels take
all my worldly desires
All my worldly desires
all my yardsticks of fear
All my yardsticks of fear
all my secrets untold
All my secrets untold
all my motives unclear
All my motives unclear
hangin' down in the fire
Hangin' down in the fire
burnin' them higher
Burnin' them higher
won't take them away from here
Won't take them away from here
and long after we're gone
And long after we're gone
the light will stay on X2
The light will stay on x2
watched the city ... city of crows
Watched the city ... city of crows
watched them fly, watched
Watched them fly, watched
'em all flyin' low
'em all flyin' low
out above the flood plain
Out above the flood plain

just above the dirt road
Just above the dirt road
they were hungry as winter,
They were hungry as winter,
hungry as us
Hungry as us
not afraid to be flyin', not
Not afraid to be flyin', not
afraid to be lost
Afraid to be lost
and long after we're gone
And long after we're gone
the light will stay on X2
The light will stay on x2
and if you bury me, add
And if you bury me, add
three feet to it
Three feet to it
one for your sorrow, two
One for your sorrow, two
for your sweat
For your sweat
three for the strange
Three for the strange
things we never forget
Things we never forget
and long after we're gone
And long after we're gone
the light will stay on X2
The light will stay on x2
and long after we're safe
And long after we're safe
the lights will not fade X2
The lights will not fade x2
