You Left The Light On – Prakash George Lyrics

Intro

Soft light

Open door

I came in

With my name half gone

Verse 1

You didn’t ask for the story

You didn’t ask me to prove the bruise

You just pulled the chair beside you

Like you already knew

No rescue, no sermon

No hands trying to make me new

Just a quiet kind of mercy

That didn’t look away from the truth

Pre-Chorus

I didn’t know

How much I’d been waiting

For a place that didn’t flinch

When I arrived undone

Chorus

You left the light on

You left the light on

And I found my way back

By the shape of what you kept

You left the light on

You left the light on

Not to save me from the dark

Just to let me in it

Verse 2

You don’t hold me like I’m fragile

You hold me like I’m here

Like every scar I carry

Has a pulse you can hear

And I was so used to leaving

I mistook it for my name

But you made a room inside your life

That didn’t ask me to change

Pre-Chorus

I didn’t know

How much I’d been waiting

For a place that didn’t flinch

When I arrived undone

Chorus

You left the light on

You left the light on

And I found my way back

By the shape of what you kept

You left the light on

You left the light on

Not to save me from the dark

Just to let me in it

Bridge

Maybe home was never shelter

Maybe home was never safe

Maybe home is someone staying

After they know your real name

Quiet

Steady

Unafraid

The kind of love that doesn’t change

When it sees the worst of you

And still makes room

Final Chorus

You left the light on

You left the light on

And I found my way back

By the shape of what you kept

You left the light on

You left the light on

Not to save me from the dark

Just to let me in it

You left the light on

And that’s the line that breaks me

You left the light on

And I finally came home

You left the light on

You left the light on
