Lamplight
David Essex · Thank You [2012]
Shining from your window
Babe, I see your lamplight
Let it shine on me
Oh, if I see your window
Baby, do you feel low
Waiting on your fear, no
Waiting on me
And I don't really
Wanna go alone
But I get the feeling
I better get on home
Ooh, baby, would I look right
Climbing up the drainpipe
Baby, would it feel right
If I stayed all night
And I don't really
Wanna go alone
Should I pack my bag
And get on out, get home
Yeah, I be rocking and reeling
Reeling and feeling
Gotta get to you, babe
Just gotta get through
I can see lamplight
Shining from your window
Babe, I see your lamplight
And it shine on me
Uh uh, shine on me
Uh uh, shine on me
Uh uh, shine on me
Shine on me
Ah, shine on me
Now now, shine on me
Shine on me
Shine that shine on
Woo, on me
Now it gonna shine on me
Gonna shine on me
Gonna shine on me...
