I Kept The Light On For You.

Instrumental

Verse 1

You just wanted to live it all

Every drop, every night

We told you where the danger was

You never saw the signs

You turned deaf to every voice

That tried to pull you back

And I kept watching from the side

Afraid you'd never turn around

Pre-Chorus

But I held on

When letting go felt easier

I held on

When everyone else walked away

Chorus

I kept the door open

For the one who slammed it shut

I believed you could still change

Till it cut right through my pride

I kept the light on for you

Long after you'd gone cold

I thought hope would be the last thing

But hope showed up too late

Instrumental

Verse 2

It started small, or so it seemed

One more, then one more again

I watched it slowly take you down

And still I called it a phase

Then you were running out of roads

And running out of time

You thought that crime could pull you through

When nothing else would work

Pre-Chorus

Stubborn you kept walking

Stubborn me kept waiting

I couldn't let go of the one

I thought you could become

Chorus

I kept the door open

For the one who slammed it shut

I believed you could still change

Till it cut right through my pride

I kept the light on for you

Long after you'd gone cold

I thought hope would be the last thing

But hope showed up too late

Bridge

We fought and the windows broke

Words we couldn't take back

Every time I tried to reach you

We just pushed each other back

Still I gave hope one more chance

Still I waited for the change

Then hope came knocking at the door

But you were already gone

Instrumental

Final Chorus

I kept the door open

For the one who slammed it shut

I believed you could still change

Till it cut right through my pride

I kept the light on for you

Long after you'd gone cold

I thought hope would be the last thing

But hope showed up too late

Outro

Hope showed up late

Hope showed up late

For you

For you

Instrumental
