Lyrics
[Verse 1]
You left your blue cup by the kitchen sink
A coffee ring dried where the morning sun hits
I found your note underneath the bread
Three crooked words: “Take care,” you said
[Chorus]
I’ll leave the porch light on till Sunday
Let the screen door swing the way it does
If you come back with the rain on your jacket
There’s a dry towel waiting just because
I can’t make a promise for tomorrow
But I know this house still knows your name
So I’ll leave the porch light on till Sunday
And let the rest of it change
[Verse 2]
Your old work gloves are beside the stairs
One thumb worn thin from the fence out there
The dog still turns when a truck rolls by
Then settles down with a little sigh
[Chorus]
I’ll leave the porch light on till Sunday
Let the screen door swing the way it does
If you come back with the rain on your jacket
There’s a dry towel waiting just because
I can’t make a promise for tomorrow
But I know this house still knows your name
So I’ll leave the porch light on till Sunday
And let the rest of it change
[Bridge]
Maybe Sunday comes and goes
Maybe the old road takes you home
Either way, when evening falls
There’ll be a little light for us all
[Final Chorus]
I’ll leave the porch light on till Sunday
Let the screen door swing the way it does
If you come back with the rain on your jacket
There’s a dry towel waiting just because
I can’t make a promise for tomorrow
But I know this house still knows your name
So I’ll leave the porch light on till Sunday
And let the rest of it change
[Outro]
That blue cup’s still beside the sink
I’ll leave the light on, if you think
You left your blue cup by the kitchen sink
A coffee ring dried where the morning sun hits
I found your note underneath the bread
Three crooked words: “Take care,” you said
[Chorus]
I’ll leave the porch light on till Sunday
Let the screen door swing the way it does
If you come back with the rain on your jacket
There’s a dry towel waiting just because
I can’t make a promise for tomorrow
But I know this house still knows your name
So I’ll leave the porch light on till Sunday
And let the rest of it change
[Verse 2]
Your old work gloves are beside the stairs
One thumb worn thin from the fence out there
The dog still turns when a truck rolls by
Then settles down with a little sigh
[Chorus]
I’ll leave the porch light on till Sunday
Let the screen door swing the way it does
If you come back with the rain on your jacket
There’s a dry towel waiting just because
I can’t make a promise for tomorrow
But I know this house still knows your name
So I’ll leave the porch light on till Sunday
And let the rest of it change
[Bridge]
Maybe Sunday comes and goes
Maybe the old road takes you home
Either way, when evening falls
There’ll be a little light for us all
[Final Chorus]
I’ll leave the porch light on till Sunday
Let the screen door swing the way it does
If you come back with the rain on your jacket
There’s a dry towel waiting just because
I can’t make a promise for tomorrow
But I know this house still knows your name
So I’ll leave the porch light on till Sunday
And let the rest of it change
[Outro]
That blue cup’s still beside the sink
I’ll leave the light on, if you think
