Porch Light Burning

Intro

Mm

Mm-hmm

Mm

Verse 1

Three in the morning and the hallway hums

A half-drunk cup still sitting on the shelf

I rearrange the photographs you left behind

Hoping that one might tell me something else

Year and a half since you closed that door

I still set the table for two

Pre-Chorus

And I keep waiting

Kept believing

Kept the porch light burning through the evening

Chorus

I leave the light on

I leave the door unlocked

I hear your footsteps

But nobody's there

I leave the light on

I leave the door unlocked

I hear your footsteps

But nobody's there

Verse 2

Yesterday I thought I saw your jacket moving

Just a curtain caught up in the draft

I told the neighbors that I'm fine I swear I'm fine

Folded laundry left the same way that you laughed

My fingers trace the telephone wire

Static where your voice should be

Pre-Chorus

And I keep calling

Kept on calling

Kept your number ringing through the morning

Chorus

I leave the light on

I leave the door unlocked

I hear your footsteps

But nobody's there

I leave the light on

I leave the door unlocked

I hear your footsteps

But nobody's there

Bridge

Someday I'll turn the key

Someday I'll kill the glow

But grief is just a room

You keep on entering slow

Guitar Solo

Chorus

I leave the light on

I leave the door unlocked

I hear your footsteps

But nobody's there

I leave the light on

I leave the door unlocked

I hear your footsteps

But nobody's there

But nobody's there

But nobody's there
