Janis Ian Light a Light song lyrics

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

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

When you’re gone, the sun don’t shine

Light a light, light a light for me

Bring me back home again

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

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

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
