[Verse 1]
The door swung, on ya, hon'
A month before the night turned cold
I'll be on my way
An hour or two
Is all I can stay
[Verse 2]
You can't fail on me now
The sheltered hand, what we said
It's just a matter of course
All my hope, selling you short
[Chorus]
But I won't carry on when you are gone
There's a light, in your eye, delivered in song
[Verse 3]
I woke up on the floor
A shaft of light, caught my eye
Looking around
For the steady beat of a familiar sound
[Chorus]
But I won't carry on when you are gone
There's a light, in your eye, delivered in song
[Outro]
All men are bordered
All men are free
To pray for wisdom
And let this be
