Leave on the Lights

from Leave on the Lights by Parker Ainsworth

lyrics

you came and went like passing sunlight through the trees
warming my lips and chest i ran toward your company
the light was always strong though shadows raced so quick between
shifting the focus far away from what we're born to be

i'm lighting candles
on an alter full of stones
i close my eyes and hear you humming a new song
i'll take a book to bed
i'm going to be alone again tonight
i leave on the lights

over the mountains in the desert just beyond
you bloom again with love rising like the morning sun
i chose to let you go to know ourselves again
and now i take the time to love myself as you once did

i'm lighting candles
on an alter full of stones
i close my eyes and hear you humming a new song
i'll take a book to bed
i'm going to be alone again tonight
i leave on the lights

i'm lighting candles
on an alter full of stones
i close my eyes and hear you humming a new song
i'll take a book to bed
i'm going to be alone again tonight
i leave on the lights

tonight... i leave on the lights...

about

Parker Ainsworth Los Angeles, California

“Parker Ainsworth has the voice of a man whose lived many lives in one lifetime. He’s a mystic wandering bard…you can hear the Texan smoke in his voice and his finger picking should be studied. He’s a painter with words and his palette is plentiful. I was a fan in an instant.” ~ NohoArtsDistrict ... more
