Could You Put Your Light On, Please Lyrics
Could You Put Your Light On, Please by Harry Belafonte
She went sliding through my questions,
Gliding 'round the answer.
Whatever it was, she knew it was holy,
And each time I tried to hold her
Her smile came sad and slowly.
She said, "No one knows me."
Could you put your light on please, it's kind of dark tonight.
And I feel a little lonely, yes, I need a little light.
Could you put your light on please, let me hear a friendly sound.
I could make it through 'til morning if you could let your light shine down.
She had a dream, I had my typewriter.
While I was hacking out such a heavy world
She was weaving one much lighter.
But I'll never know just how much it cost her,
And as I slept beside her something turned and tossed her.
And it did till I lost her.
Could you put your light on please, it's kind of dark tonight.
And I feel a little lonely, yes, I need a little light.
Could you put your light on please, let me hear a friendly sound.
I could make it through 'til morning if you could let your light shine down.
Bright times were brighter than they'd ever been before, I tell you,
Night times were lighter, But they'll never, never be no more.
Could you put your light on please, it's kind of dark tonight.
And I feel a little lonely, yes, I need a little light.
Could you put your light on please, let me hear a friendly sound.
I could make it through 'til morning if you could let your light shine down.
