Porch Light Left On
by Juno Hart
“I wrote this walking home after a long shift, when the streetlights were just flickering off and the sky was going blue. I kept the beat sparse and the falsetto close to the mic so it feels like someone waiting up for you.”

Lyrics
Shift is finally over, the sky is turning blue Streetlights flicker on like they were waiting for me too Window cracked a little, got the city in my ear Sirens in the distance but my mind is finally clear Passed the corner market and the barber pulling down the gate Every block I know by heart, I'm not even running late Phone is on the seat, it can wait until I'm home Tonight the only thing I need is the road and a slow tone Miles behind me, I can see it from the hill That little yellow glow, it's burning still Porch light left on, porch light left on Somebody saved the night for me till I got home Porch light left on, shining down the street It's the warmest thing I know and it's calling me to sleep Porch light left on Pulling up the driveway, hear the gravel under tires Kitchen window glowing, there's a kettle on the fire Took the long way round tonight just to hold the quiet close Everybody needs a place where the weight of the day slows Hung my keys up by the door, kicked my boots against the wall Heard a little footstep coming down the hall All the hustle that I carry, I can set it down right here Love is just a light that says come in, you're welcome here Miles behind me, I can see it from the hill That little yellow glow, it's burning still Porch light left on, porch light left on Somebody saved the night for me till I got home Porch light left on, shining down the street It's the warmest thing I know and it's calling me to sleep Porch light left on Moths are dancing round it like a tiny crowd Crickets keep the tempo, not too soft and not too loud If you're still out driving, take your time, take your time There's a light somewhere that's burning and it's yours and it's mine Porch light left on, porch light left on Somebody saved the night for me till I got home Porch light left on, shining down the street It's the warmest thing I know and it's calling me to sleep Porch light left on Home, home, the light is on Home, home, I'm not alone
