Take my light Tell me what you are seeking It’s not all night This is just the beginning [of the parade]

Although you have to go [on the parade] It makes me feel like drumming I don't know when I'll see you again

Darling leave a lantern for me I'll be there before you pass LIDL To give you all the light that you need

Darling leave a light on for me 'Cause when the parade takes me away You are still the light that I need

I can't explain, I just don't know Just how far I have to go But darling I'll keep the battery Just leave a lantern for me...

With apologies to Belinda Carlisle
