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.
