Light, lovely light, won't you shine in my window
Love, precious love, how could I live without you
People tug on your shirt, say you're lucky
You got everything you want
What kind of changes make a man
But you don't, yet you dare not say
Plush rooms make a blind in your eyes to see, blindin' me
Ohh, I'd like to know
All the things you planned
Makes you drop that you used to hold in your hand
Go upstairs with a someone who says she cares
Love, precious love, won't you come full of circle
Have I taken leave of my senses?
Warm, won't you be, please be there in the winter
Been too long on the road
How can I do this to myself?
Then gone, leaving you with the coldest room, the oldest gloom
Then you know that you're on your way
Maybe cynics veins are my lifeblood
So I'll try, try to understand
Home, ever home, how could I ever doubt you
Love, precious love, won't you fill every room
Want to tear down all his fences?
Like the devil she does what comes ever into your mind
Go downtown, people runnin' around they climb slowly draggin' you
Been too long on the road
May be bitin' the hand that I feed
What it is that devours your freedom
Downtown horns make a dent in your mind
