Keep the Porch Light On (버전 2) – Callie Rae Hutton

Verse

Gravel dust and taillights fading down the line

Screen door slaps behind me like a shot of shine

Got my boots half-laced and my heart wide open

Radio's alive and the night's still hopin'

Truck bed full of moonlight, gravel road unwound

Every mile behind me makes a sweeter sound

Freedom tastes like diesel and a summer breeze

Nothing but the static and the fireflies

Pre-Chorus

So how far can a girl run

Before the running turns to home

Maybe both at once tonight

Maybe I don't gotta choose alone

Chorus

I'm gonna dance tonight like the world ain't watching

Spin till the stars blur into gold

Chase this freedom till the dark stops talking

But baby, keep the porch light on

So I know right where to go

When the music fades and the fire's low

I'll come back, but not too soon

Keep the porch light on till I'm done with the moon

Verse

Neon in the window, gravel in my hair

Some girl on the tailgate don't got a single care

Bonfire sparks are climbing like they're chasing the sky

I'm chasing something wilder, something running me by

Every song's a highway, every hook's a door

I keep on driving further than I've gone before

But there's a lamp still burning back on Cedar Lane

Steady as a heartbeat through the wind and rain

Pre-Chorus

So how far can a girl run

Before the running turns to home

Maybe both at once tonight

Maybe I don't gotta choose alone

Chorus

I'm gonna dance tonight like the world ain't watching

Spin till the stars blur into gold

Chase this freedom till the dark stops talking

But baby, keep the porch light on

So I know right where to go

When the music fades and the fire's low

I'll come back, but not too soon

Keep the porch light on till I'm done with the moon

Bridge

Maybe freedom ain't the leaving

It's the knowing you'll be there

Every road that I keep chasing

Circles back to Cedar Square

So let me run until I'm dizzy

Let me burn this whole night down

Long as one lamp's always waiting

I can dance this whole town

Chorus

I'm gonna dance tonight like the world ain't watching

Spin till the stars blur into gold

Chase this freedom till the dark stops talking

But baby, keep the porch light on

So I know right where to go

When the music fades and the fire's low

I'll come back, but not too soon

Keep the porch light on till I'm done with the moon

Outro

Keep it burning, keep it low

Keep the porch light on

I'll be home
