Well the leaves on the trees they been falling And a cold wild wind blows through your bones I've been gone too long and left you all alone And your wondering if I'm ever coming home In the long cold hours of the evening Your wondering if I'm just a memory I'll be coming home to melt your heart of stone So baby leave a light on for me The love of a good hearted woman Is something that ain't easy to find If you leave her waiting on your kisses She may get ideas in her mind Long are the roads that I travel Searching for a long lost melody But I'll be coming home to melt your heart of stone So baby leave a light on for me
