KEEP A LIGHT ON Songtext

KEEP A LIGHT ON Songtext
Keep a light on
Like the stars in the sky
Let it shine on
Burn bright in the night
Hold on to the fire
′Cause that sun's gonna rise
Keep a light on
When it gets dark, dark outside
Growing up from where I′m from
You get used to having none
Man, we was treading water
Blowing smoke inside the house
When they'd cut the power out
Hard times was hitting harder
Pops would grab some hickory, then he'd start us up a fire
Life was getting heavy while his pockets getting lighter
I could see it in his еyes
We was barely gеtting by
But all he′d ever say is
Keep a light on
Like the stars in the sky
Let it shine on
Burn bright in the night
Hold on to the fire
′Cause that sun's gonna rise
Keep a light on
When it gets dark, dark outside
Always heavy on her mind
Mama working overtime
Keeping food up on the table
Yeah, she taught me how to grind
′Fore I ever made a dime
She was praying with the faithful
She was just a kid while she tryna raise a baby
Up into a man who's tryna give her what she gave me
I could see it in her eyes
We was barely getting by
But all she′d ever say is
Keep a light on
Like the stars in the sky
Let it shine on
Burn bright in the night
Hold on to the fire
'Cause that sun′s gonna rise
Keep a light on
When it gets dark, dark outside
Shine on, shine on, shine on
So keep a light on
Like the stars in the sky
Let it shine on
Burn bright in the night
Hold on to the fire
'Cause that sun's gonna rise
Keep a light on
When it gets dark, dark outside
(Burn bright in the night)
Shine on, shine on, shine on
(When it gets dark outside)
Oh, shine on, shine on, shine on
(Burn bright in the night)
Yeah, shine on, shine on, shine on
When it gets dark outside
Like the stars in the sky
Let it shine on
Burn bright in the night
Hold on to the fire
′Cause that sun's gonna rise
Keep a light on
When it gets dark, dark outside
Growing up from where I′m from
You get used to having none
Man, we was treading water
Blowing smoke inside the house
When they'd cut the power out
Hard times was hitting harder
Pops would grab some hickory, then he'd start us up a fire
Life was getting heavy while his pockets getting lighter
I could see it in his еyes
We was barely gеtting by
But all he′d ever say is
Keep a light on
Like the stars in the sky
Let it shine on
Burn bright in the night
Hold on to the fire
′Cause that sun's gonna rise
Keep a light on
When it gets dark, dark outside
Always heavy on her mind
Mama working overtime
Keeping food up on the table
Yeah, she taught me how to grind
′Fore I ever made a dime

Let it shine on
Burn bright in the night
Hold on to the fire
'Cause that sun′s gonna rise
Keep a light on
When it gets dark, dark outside
Shine on, shine on, shine on
So keep a light on
Like the stars in the sky
Let it shine on
Burn bright in the night
Hold on to the fire
'Cause that sun's gonna rise
Keep a light on
When it gets dark, dark outside
(Burn bright in the night)
Shine on, shine on, shine on
(When it gets dark outside)
Oh, shine on, shine on, shine on
(Burn bright in the night)
Yeah, shine on, shine on, shine on
When it gets dark outside
