Janis Ian — Light a Light

[Verse 1] I hear your voice in every corridor I see your face in every picture frame I feel your eyes in every starry sky Lover, am I coming home again [Verse 2] Now am I humble, who once was proud Now am I silent, who once was loud Now am I waiting for the sound of your saying— Lover, am I coming home again [Chorus] When you're gone, the sun don't shine Light a light, light a light for me Bring me back home again [Verse 3] And how we loved, 'til the years were days How we laughed all our tears away And now the time begins to fade Lover, am I coming home again [Verse 4] There's a wisdom in the teachings of the old familiar songs And a sorrow in repeating all the old familiar wrongs And a lesson to be learned, though I've known all along Lover, am I coming home again [Chorus] Light a light, light a light for me Light a light, light a light for me Light a light, light a light for me Bring me back home again Bring me back home again
