[Verse 1]
I look out the window, everything's quiet
The night is cold and dark
There's one light on in the neighborhood
And that's mine
It's been this way every night
Since we've been apart
One light on in the neighborhood
And that's mine

[Chorus]
One light on in the neighborhood
I try to sleep but it does me no good
A lonely light that always burns
Like the love I have for you
It seems like the light should go out
But it's burning brighter and there ain't no doubt
There's one light on in the neighborhood
And that's mine

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 2]
The latе show ends, but I can't sleep
So I turn the radio on
With one light on in thе neighborhood
And that's mine
The paper comes, again I greet
Another lonely dawn
With one light on in the neighborhood
And that's mine
