David Cook - “Light On” Lyrics
Never really said too much
Afraid it wouldn’t be enough
Just try to keep my spirits up
When there’s no point in grieving
Doesn’t matter anyway
Words could never make me stay
Words will never take my place
When you know I’m leaving
(Chorus)
Try to leave a light on when I’m gone
Something I rely on to get home
One I can feel at night
A naked light, a fire to keep me warm
Try to leave a light on when I’m gone
Even in the daylight, shine on
And when it’s late at night you can look inside
You won’t feel so alone
You know we’ve been down that road
What seems a thousand times before
My back to a closing door and my eyes to the seasons
That roll out underneath my heels
And you don’t know how bad it feels
To leave the only one that I have ever believed in
[Chorus]
Sometimes it feels like we’ve run out of luck
When the signal keeps on breaking up
When the wires cross in my brain
You’ll start my heart again
When I come along
[Chorus]

i dont like thee pic. david looks awful everytime he applies eyeliner to his eyes. Why does he do that?!
as for the song, its lright. i was expecting it to be better. David’s voice was not very tuned nd it sounded rough and harsh. The studio versions of his performances on idol were a lot better. I really hope the other songs in his album are better than this. ‘light on’ diddnt sound like it was coming from the david cook i have come to like so much. chris cornell isnt a lyric genius, david shouldnt have teamed up with him. the lyrics of the songs featured in analog heart were better.
boooring!
i like him he’s cool
Probably gonna need a few more plays to looove it.
First play sounds good, second half of the song sounds better than the first half. But heck yeah, looking forward to more DC music..
sounds corny…and im not digging the makeup he has been wearing lately..or the tats..but that’s me. He seems a nice guy but..I love Archie!
Its Amazing! I really love the song. I think it is going to be a big hit.
I love him more for his talent than his looks, but, yeah! he looks gorgeous.
He is very versatile vocally, this new song proves what we already knew. This song is a good transition from a year of covers in AI7 and his indie project Analog Heart (favorite CD of mine).
OMG, THOSE EYES ARE KILLING ME! *thud*
I’m glad I helped him win, now I’m going to enjoy the ride.
Right on, LIGHT ON!!!
omg… i loved it. but im hatin that pic. …….he looks kike a chipmunk…lol ily
<3
What did they do to his face in that picture? He looks gross!
Okay, first of all, DAVID! What is up with the picture!?!?
I love you and all, but, come on. No makeup, please!
Love the song, love ALL songs, love you. (:
You’re so amazing.
you think the eyeliner in this picture is bad, you should’ve seen him in concert in St. Louis - he looked like a racoon.
i thing to say: love him
i think this song is AWESOME!!! && i also think that he is lookin hot
btw most rockers wear eyeliner
GREAT JOB DAVID!!!
love the new song
&& cant wait until CD comes out
this song is profound…it really reflects david’s personality….
it doesnt matter what he looks…so long he keeps on singing and writing what’s in his heart and soul….
David cook is awsome and this new song is great. Can not wait until November 18 for his album to come out
That is the CREEEEEpiest pic of him I have EVER seen. WTH was he thinking ok’in that photo? And the song… don’t get me started. He has lost his mind. seriously.

Oh, man. What happened to David Cook? I thought he was pretty cool on Idol. Great voice, decent person. They really messed with his voice on this song, though. UGH. I guess most of the people who love it are chicks who are still infatuated, but believe me, Cook has sounded light years better on other songs that he put out by himself.
And, yeah. Hate that eyeliner look.
OMG love the song!!! it’s awesome just like david but i liked the idol david better the one that doesn’t where eye linear. Sorry david but the eye linear looks horrible your a sexy guy but it makes you look horrible…….. but i love you alot!! keep on rockin!\
love you jessica
Love it. love DC
amazing amazing amazing.
that’s all i can say :)
amazing looks, voice and talent.
i cant stop listening to his song!
I LOVE HIMMMMMMMMMM!!!!
im a huge david fan, and i think if us david fans think about it- this is (or isnt) him. the real david is the one in analog heart, the swearing moody singer we dont know. but i think us david fans want to beleive in our hearts this is the idol david we all know and love- but its not.
the idol-david isnt him- and this isnt him either.
i want the idol-david, but i want him to be himself, but i dont want the analog-heart david- which is the real him…
i think hes too relaxed now, he needs to pick it up before underdog archie picks up the slack, and becomes the next daughtry.
im mixed..
OMG i loveeeee this song soooooooooooooooo much!!!!!!! it is amazzzzzing!!!!! not the greatest picture though, i liked the way he looked on idol better but who cares I STILL LOVE HIM!!!!!!!
Love the song, love the lyrics, love the melody. I can’t wait to buy this on iTunes so I can play it in my car! wow!
OK…the picture? Really not liking it. Very pretty boy-ish. What happened to David Cook from Idol? The only way I really recognize him is because of his lips! But wow…I want the edgy emo David Cook back! This photo is pretty and all, but it’s like what a lot of people are saying…kind of creepy and does not look like the David Cook we all are fans of.
