[Verse 1]
G
A car crash second date
Is playing out across the table
A
Behind us
G
Glasses of Sangiovese
The poor girl's being driven crazy
A
But it's a vital phase
To arrive at the right place
D
They're only filling the void
Look at us on our high horses
A
Baby, they're background noise
But we are connected by forces
G
That have landed us in a restaurant
As I'm watching the stars in your eyes
A
I ask you to ask me again to give this another try
[Chorus]
D
Leave the light on, I've thought this one through
A
Trust looks nice on me around you
G
Like a fitted dress and knee-high boots
A button up shirt, midnight blue
A
Like how I look good on you
I know you think it too
[Verse 2]
G
It's October in L.A
With loves toxic and unfaithful
A
Behind us, now we can obtain it
The haven we both craved
D
When we were filling the void
Tending to flames bound to burn out
A
But baby, they're background noise
Pleasantly strange how it turns out
G
When you lean into the serene and new
Way of loving in spite of old wounds
A
So to ask you to ask me again
I hope you know it speaks volumes
[Chorus]
D
Leave the light on, I've thought this one through
A
Trust looks nice on me around you
G
Like a fitted dress and knee-high boots
A button up shirt, midnight blue
A
Like how I look good on you
I know you think it too
[Chorus]
D
Leave the light on, I've thought this one through
A
Trust looks nice on me around you
G
Like a fitted dress and knee-high boots
A button up shirt, midnight blue
A
Like how I look good on you
I know you think it too
[Bridge]
Bm7 G
All our airport goodbyes and hellos becoming
A Bm7 G
Plans to paint the kitchen cupboards yellow
A Gm7 G E
Running towards hope has shown this time around I'm onto something
F#m G
Now the year ahead is looking bright
A
I'll be home later tonight
[Chorus]
D
Leave the light on, I've thought this one through
A
Trust looks nice on me around you
G
Like a fitted dress and knee-high boots
A button up shirt, midnight blue
A
Like how I look good on you
[Chorus]
D
Leave the light on, I've thought this one through
A
Trust looks nice on me around you
G
Like a fitted dress and knee-high boots
A button up shirt, midnight blue
A
Like how I look good on you
