Wait for Your Lights Lyrics

If you like the way you feel
I'll leave you alone
Tell me now, the things you'd steal
If you had a home
I guess it's pain, the skin you're in
Burning through time
I'd like to see your face again
In the sunshine

I'm gonna wait for your lights
To come on
I'm gonna wait for your lights
To come on

And though now your brother's gone
He still sits with you
The little girl you used to be

So proud and so true
Walking through the city streets
They bow down for you

I'm gonna wait for your lights
To come on
I'm gonna wait for your lights
To come on

I'm gonna wait for your lights
To come on
I'm gonna wait for your lights
To come on
I'm gonna wait for your lights
To come on

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
