Tally Hall — Light and Night

[Rob Cantor] We ought to leave a light on, leave a light on, underneath the moon Sitting in the sight of every eye I believe in you Open your window, look out and see me Slow I am coming a long way to be [Nellie McKay] An accidental light on Such as I am, by the lonely sun Ever is the light on, is the light on Ever meant to run Cold but I'm outside and waiting to see Blowing the snow coming closer to me [Chorus: Rob Cantor & Nellie McKay] Tonight I'm arriving alive and alight Tonight all the black, and the gray and the white And I want to be like you are the one light I want to see your eyes looking back and into mine [Nellie McKay] Better when the light comes in the night-time opening the door Hoping to be right, it's open every night. So whatcha waiting for? [Rob Cantor & Nellie McKay] Open your window look out and see me Slow I am coming a long way to be [Chorus: Rob Cantor & Nellie McKay] Tonight I'm arriving alive and alight Tonight all the black and the gray and the white And I want to be like you are the one light. I want to see your eyes looking back and into mine [Rob Cantor] Something is real. Maybe not. Something is gone. Something is here. Only thought. All that you want. Everything else will follow [Chorus: Rob Cantor & Nellie McKay] Tonight I'm arriving alive and alight Tonight all the black and the gray and the white And I want to be like you are the one light. I want to see your eyes looking back and into mine
