Karaoke - Looking For The Light

Karaoke - Looking For The Light - Rick Trevino

When I was young I was frightened by shadow monsters on my wall

And I was convinced they would get me in the dark if I slept at all

I knew she was there in her bedroom so I'd tiptoe down the hall

Lay my head on the floor and try to see under her door

I was looking for the light

When it was on I knew everything was all right

Before I could knock she'd open the door

And I'd look up and seen that smile

She always knew when I was looking for the light

At 19 I had all the answers thought I could make it on my own

As we were packing she said "Don't ever forget this is always your home"

Soon I found a one room apartment has monsters of it's own

So sometimes I'd go out and drive by that old house

And I was looking for the light

When it was on I knew everything was all right

Before I could knock she'd open the door

And I'd look up and seen that smile

She always knew when I was looking for the light

I stood there filled with fear as she was passing away

They said "She can't hear you now all we can do is pray"

As I squeezed her hand she opened her eyes

And smiled for me one last time

She always knew, when I was looking for the light
