I remember it/ Dumping in a rainstorm/ Sitting in the ?? since summer,
keeping warm/ I remember it/ Every restless night/ We were so young then/
We thought that everything we could possibly do was right/ And we moved/
Stolen from our very eyes/ And I wonder where you went to/ And tell me,
when did the light die?/ You will rise, you will return/ Phoenix from the
flame/ You'll learn, you'll rise, you'll return/ Being what you are/ There
is no other choice/ For you to burn/ And I never meant to hurt you/ I swear!/
I didn't mean those things I said/ I never meant to do that to you/ Next
time I'll keep my hands to myself and stay--/ Lord, I should love you/
What do you want to do?/ Does she need you like I do?/ Do you love her?/
Is she good for you?/ Does she need you like I do?/ Do you want me?/ Should
I leave?/ I know you're always telling me that you love me/ Sometimes I
wonder if I shouldn't believe/ Oh, I love you/ God I love you/ I'd kill a
dragon for you and die!/ But I will rise/ And I will return/ The Phoenix
from the flame!/ I have learned/ I will rise/ And you'll see me return/
Being what I am/ There is no other choice/ For me to burn
(noticeable change in tone of music)
Well, you shoulda left the light on/ You shoulda left the light on/ Then I
wouldn't've tried/ And you'd never've known/ Well, I wouldn't've pulled you
tighter/ No, I wouldn't've pulled you close/ I wouldn't've screamed "NO!
I can't let you go!" if the door wasn't closed/ No, I wouldn't've pulled
you to me/ No, I wouldn't've kissed your face/ You wouldn't've begged me to
hold you if we hadn't been there in the first place/ Oh, but I know you
wanted me to be there/ Every look that you threw told me so/ But you shoulda
left the light on/ You shoulda left the left on/ Light on, oh/ Light on, oh/
Wouldn't've made it burn away/ But you're still spitting fire/ Makes no
difference what you say/ You're still a liar/ You're still a liar/ You're
still a liar!
