Keep A Light In The Window Lyrics - Singles - Solomon Burke

Now it was just the other day 

These are the words I heard a soldier sing 

He said, "Tell my babe 

To keep a light in the window 

Till I come home, till I come home" 

Well, I don't know 

How long or how soon 

Maybe tomorrow, it may be never 

Or maybe this afternoon

Somebody tell my baby 

To please keep a light, keep a light 

Keep a light in the window 

Till I come home, home, home 

Now darlin' you know 

How much I need you 

You see I been gone 

So long, so long 

But there's nothing 

Will ever change the way I feel 

I'm just asking you to hold on, baby 

Please hold on, listen 

I'm risking my life every day 

To end this fight 

But deep down inside my soul right now 

I believe I know, I said, I know this cause is right 

Photos 

I just want you, baby 

Please keep a light 

Keep a light burning 

In the window 

Till I, till I, till I, till I, till I come on home again
