Lyrics Waylon Jennings

Waylon Jennings

Shutting Out the Light

I left the light in my window

Burning bright for you

And the door to this heart of mine

I left that open too.

We once had a love together

I believe that it was true

But now you search for somethin' better

So I'm shutting out the light on you.

Yes, I'm shutting out the light in my window

Locking up the heart that beats for you

This heart of mine can't take it any longer

So I'm shutting out the light on you.

I still recall when you told me

But I've made your every dream come true

But we now are dreaming of another

But baby, are you only foolin' you?

If I had a chance I'd wait forever

There's no use pursuing what's not true

This heart of mine can't take it any longer

So I'm shutting out the light on you.

Yes, I'm shutting out the light in my window

Locking up the heart that beats for you

This heart of mine can't take it any longer

So I'm shutting out the light on you...
