lyrics

Leave the Light On

Treat me like a criminal
Put all the blame on me
Win the war of the roses

If you need to see malintent
In every word I say
Lay down your diagnosis

I’m desperately looking
For something to say or do
But I can’t make you love me
I just leave the light on for you

I leave the light on
For want of a better clue
I leave the light on
Light on for you
At least something to pursue
I leave the light on
Light on for you, light on for you

Punish me with disregard
Let it all hang out, they say
All is fair in love and war

If you need to be juggernaut
Dash me to the ground
I will stand watch your door

When no word is spoken now
How could we see it through
But I can’t make you talk to me
I leave the light on for you

I leave the light on
For want of a better clue
I leave the light on
Light on for you
I leave the light on
That’s all that I can do
I leave the light on, light on for you

Anthony's Garden Munich, Germany

Singer-songwriter Joerg Mair counts on the wisdom of a pure folk-song reduced to its essentials. Dealing with love and hate, personal and global crisis, the lyrics are the driving force of every song.

His Trio „Anthony’s Garden“ (Wolfgang Peyerl - drums, Markus Angeli - upright bass) runs in the folk-tradition of Stephen Stills, José González, Bon Iver, Nick Drake or Ry Cooder.
