All the streets are empty,
And the days just crawl.
Feel a little stranger
Daylight losing to the fall.
Shaking at the window
With a rattle so fine.
Maybe late September,
Coming down the line.
Chorus:
Shine a little light on love.
Shine a little light on love.
Shine a little light on love.
Seen it in the headlines
Like I seen it on your face.
You can throw out all the reasons.
But you never walk away.
If the hour's too idle,
All the changes coming slow.
You can leave it on your doorstep
'Til it doesn't even show.
(Chorus)
