Porch Light Lyrics & Chords By Aoife O'donovan

The darkest night I ever seen
It was the night you came to me
On your knees whispering 'I'm sorry'
Keeping time with your heartbeat
I danced along on two left feet
You kissed my cheek
And left me on a city street.

Tell me where'd you go when you left my home on the bike alone
There was room for me on your handlebars
We could've seen the stars

You wanna live a life of restlessness
Wander 'round singin' the blues
You find solace in the bar-room girls
They got nothing to lose
You want a little life of loneliness -
Baby, so do I
I wanna sit under the porch light and watch the yellow moon rise

If I were to let you go
How far you'd fall I'll never know
I'd grab your toes and swing you like a circus show
Tame the tiger, swallow fire,
Tip-toe 'cross the tightrope wire
Would you help me find another stone to grind and another man to mind?
Would you recognize that I might be a prize
I might be a prize?

You wanna live a life of restlessness
Wander 'round singin' the blues
You find solace in the bar room girls,
They got nothing to lose.
You wanna live a life of loneliness -
Baby, so do I
I wanna sit under the porch light and watch the yellow moon rise.
