Leave the Porch Light Dim

You said you'd had enough of people
I said I had had my fill
We can leave the shoes beside the doorway
Let the house go soft and still
You were smiling through the screen door
Before I even parked the car

Leave the porch light dim
Let the living room stay warm
If you want me close beside you
I've got nowhere else to go

You put on the old slow record
I put water on for tea
We were dancing in the kitchen
Before the kettle got to sing
I can tell you're getting tired
I can stay as quiet as you need

Leave the porch light dim
Let the living room stay warm
If you want me close beside you
I've got nowhere else to go

There is nothing left to prove here
There is nobody to impress
You can put your head against me
I like this part of us best

Leave the porch light dim
Let the living room stay warm
If you want me close beside you
I've got nowhere else to go

Leave the porch light dim
I'll lock up when you say
