Backstory:
This song came about at a Marc Alan Barnette workshop that was held in Green Bay, WI. I was teamed up with Mike Heath to cowrite a song. Mike had the title, but we couldn't figure out which direction to go with the song. After some time had passed, the storyline came to me. I shared my thoughts with Mike, we made some changes and, well, here it is.
Lyrics:
DON’T TURN OFF THE LIGHT

Friday night is here again
Same two pillows, same old bed
You're reading Harlequin Romance
I'm watching reruns of Friends
At eleven we'll share a good night kiss
Babe we've gotta do more than this...
(chorus)
Don't turn off the light
I want to look deep in your eyes
And see heaven again
Watch my fingers trace your face
Drink in your beauty and grace
I want to smell the sweet soft scent of your skin
Oooh let's do this right
Don't turn off the light
When daylight finds us wrapped as one
Waking with the rising sun
I’ll turn to you and kiss your lips
'N whisper this is what I've missed
Then I'll kiss you again and smile at you
And see your love come shining through
(chorus)
(instrumental bridge)
(1/2 chorus)
Don't turn off the light
I want to look deep in your eyes
And see heaven again
Oooh let's do this right
Don't turn off the light
Girl let's do this right
Don't turn off the light
(tag)
When Friday night comes back again
I’ll be holding my best friend...
