8th Day – If I Could See The Light lyrics

(Looking for a light in the window)

If I could just see the light in the window
(See the light in the window)
Then I'd know the coast is clear
(Know for sure the coast is clear)

If I could just see the light in the window
(See the light in the window)
Then I'd know the old man's there

I stole some love from a woman
Who belongs to another man
Loving my neighbor's old lady
I know it's a crying shame

But the love she whips upon me
I can't find nowhere else
If her old man see us, I'm in trouble
I just can't help myself

When the shades are down
(Shades are down)
I know he's still home
When the shades are up
She's waiting there all alone

(Looking for a light in the window)

If I could just see the light in the window
(See the light in the window)
Then I know it's safe to go on in
(Know it's safe to go on in)

If I could just see the light in the window, baby
(See the light in the window)
Then I know it's safe to love again
(Baby, see the sign just one more time)

The other night we were loving
Like we never loved before
We heard her old man at the door
I dropped down on the floor

Crawled my way to the window
Jumped out with my shoes in hand
I swore that night when I escaped
I never would sneak again

But my love came down
(My love came on)
And my heart persuaded my mind
Here I stand behind a tree
Waiting for some kind of sign

(Looking for a light in the window)
(Looking for a sign from the window)

Don't you know my heart
Is yearning (yearning)
Just to see her love light
Burning (burning)

Lemme see the light
See the light in the window
Baby, let me see the light
See the light in the window

Let me see it (see the light)
(The light, the light in the window)
Babe, let me see it

Let me see it (see the light)
(The light, the light in the window)
Babe, let me see it

Light in the window (see the light)
(The light, the light in the window)
Baby, let me shine, oh

If I could just see the light in the window
(See the light in the window)
Then I'd know the coast is clear
(Know for sure the coast is clear)
