Keep A Light In The Window

Now it was just the other day

These are the words I heard a soldier sing

He said, "Tell my babe

To keep a light in the window

Till I come home, till I come home"

Well, I don't know

How long or how soon

Maybe tomorrow, it may be never

Or maybe this afternoon

Somebody tell my baby

To please keep a light, keep a light

Keep a light in the window

Till I come home, home, home

Now darlin' you know

How much I need you

You see I been gone

So long, so long

But there's nothing

Will ever change the way I feel

I'm just asking you to hold on, baby

Please hold on, listen

I'm risking my life every day

To end this fight

But deep down inside my soul right now

I believe I know, I said, I know this cause is right

I just want you, baby

Please keep a light

Keep a light burning

In the window

Till I, till I, till I, till I, till I come on home again
