Porch Light Lyrics

Lyricist: Noah Kahan, Aaron Dessner

{Verse 1}

I Would Ask You How You’Ve Been, It’S All Over The Internet

But, Hey, I Mean, We Knew That After All

If You’Re Looking For An Autopsy Or A Half-Assed Half-Apology

Then I Think You Picked The Wrong Time To Make This Call

{Verse 2}

It Is Not Irrelevant That You Stopped Taking Your Medicine

But I’M Giving You The Benefit ’Cause It’S Raining Now

You’Ll Ask Me How The Weather Is And I’Ll Slip Into Some Eloquently

Rambling Mixed-Messaging, I Shoulda Shut You Down

{Refrain}

But When It’S Cold And It’S Cold And It’S Cold And It’S Cold

I Don’T Know, I’M Alone, I’M Alone, I’M Alone, I’M Alone

{Verse 3}

I Hopе You Tell Me That You’Re Winding Down, That You Lost Thе Taste To Face The Crowd

That Whatever Made You Famous Made You Sick

But You Can Only Do What Pain Allows, It Ain’T Up To You To Make It Out

And There Ain’T No Shame In Calling This Thing Quits

{Refrain}

But You Don’T And You Don’T And You Don’T And You Don’T And You Don’T

You’Re A Ghost, You’Re A Ghost, You’Re A Ghost, You’Re A Ghost, You’Re

{Chorus}

Poison Spreading To My Lungs

I Ain’T Holding Breath, Ain’T Holding Any Faith At All

And I’Ll Pray For You, Be In Pain For You, I’Ll Leave The Porch Light On

Heartbroken, Each Morning When It’S Me That Turns It Off

{Post-Chorus}

So It Goes, So It Goes, So It Goes

{Verse 4}

You Act Like We Just Sit Up Here And Wait For You To Reappear

But, Baby, There Are Bills To Pay And Your Dad’S Road Needs Salt

And I Try To Drown Out All The Talk, The Eyeballs In The Parking Lots

And Tell People It Ain’T Me You Want, But I Guess You’Re My Fault

{Refrain}

You’Re A Ghost, You’Re A Ghost, You’Re A Ghost, You’Re A Ghost, You’Re A Ghost

And I Choke And I Choke And I Choke And I Choke On The

{Chorus}

Poison You’Re Spreading To My Lungs

I Ain’T Holding Breath, Ain’T Holding Any Faith At All

And I’Ll Pray For You, Be In Pain For You, I’Ll Leave The Porch Light On

Heartbroken, Each Morning When It’S Me That Turns It Off

{Post-Chorus}

So It Goes, So It Goes, So It Goes

{Bridge}

Oh-Oh

Oh-Ah!

{Chorus}

Poison Spreading To My Lungs

I Ain’T Holding Breath, Ain’T Holding Any Faith At All

And I’Ll Pray For You, Be In Pain For You, I’Ll Leave The Porch Light On

Heartbroken, Each Morning When It’S Me That Turns It Off

{Post-Chorus}

So It Goes, So It Goes, So It Goes
