I never thought [bad word] so soon
I'd be with you inside this room
Heaven's taking you from me
Your hand grows weak, it's telling me it's time to leave

Help me say goodnight, I won't say goodbye
Leave the light on, I'll be home in time
Help me say goodnight, I won't say goodbye
Leave the light on, I'll be home in time

How can a granite stone symbolize
The kaleidoscope that was your life?
Your words will stay alive in me
My knees grow weak, the tears I leave are healing me

Help me say goodnight, I won't say goodbye
Leave the light on, I'll be home in time
Help me say goodnight, I won't say goodbye
Leave the light on, I'll be home in time

Well, I'll be home in time
I'll be home in time

Help me say goodnight, I won't say goodbye
Leave the light on, I'll be home in time
Help me say goodnight
I'll be home in time

Help me say goodnight
I won't say goodbye
(I'll be home)
Leave the light on
(I'll be home tonight)
I'll be home in time
(I'll be home in time)
