Keep a light in your window tonight Your wandering boy is coming home
Just be sure that it's still burning bright I promise never more to roam
Oh, what a wonderful feeling that in a little while
I will be traveling way down that last long mile
So keep a light in your window tonight Your wandering boy is coming home
I have a letter that just came today From mother asking me to please come home
I wrote right back to mother just to say I'm sorry that I left you all alone
So won't you keep a light in your window tonight Your wandering boy is coming home
Just be sure that it's still burning bright I promise never more to roam
Oh, what a wonderful feeling that in a little while
I will be traveling way down that last long mile
So keep a light in your window tonight Your wandering boy is coming home
