Song information
Artist: Harry Chapin Album: Heads & Tales
Lyrics
She moved so well 'cause she was a dancer She went sliding through my questions Gliding 'round the answer
Whatever it was, she knew it was holy And each time I tried to hold her Her smile came sad and slowly She said, "no one knows me."
Could you put your light on please, it's kind of dark tonight And I feel a little lonely, yes, I need a little light Could you put your light on please, let me hear a friendly sound I could make it through 'til morning if you could let your light shine down
She had a dream, I had my typewriter While I was hacking out such a heavy world She was weaving one much lighter But I'll never know just how much it cost her And as I slept beside her something turned and tossed her And it did till I lost her
Could you put your light on please, it's kind of dark tonight And I feel a little lonely, yes, I need a little light Could you put your light on please, let me hear a friendly sound I could make it through 'til morning if you could let your light shine down
Bright times were brighter than they'd ever been before, I tell you Night times were lighter, but they'll never, never be no more
Could you put your light on please, it's kind of dark tonight And I feel a little lonely, yes, I need a little light Could you put your light on please, let me hear a friendly sound I could make it through 'til morning if you could let your light shine down
