Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Coming up the driveway late at night
Through the window I can see that light
Sharon's coffee cup still on the stand
As she waits up, Bible in her hand
Been that way since I was just sixteen
Sneaking in from places I shouldn't been
Never mad, just glad I made it back
Wisdom in her eyes, that's just a fact
[Chorus]
That kitchen light burns faithful and true
Just like the love she's given me and you
No matter where life takes me, I know
There's one place I can always go
'Cause Sharon keeps that light burning bright
Guardian angel in the dark of night
Some things in life you can count on
That kitchen light's still on
[Verse 2]
Remember when I lost that baseball game
She made cookies, said I'd win next game
When that first heartbreak tore me down
She stayed up till sunrise came around
Every triumph, every time I fell
She was there to hear the stories I'd tell
Never rushed me, always took her time
Making sure this heart of mine was fine
[Chorus]
That kitchen light burns faithful and true
Just like the love she's given me and you
No matter where life takes me, I know
There's one place I can always go
'Cause Sharon keeps that light burning bright
Guardian angel in the dark of night
Some things in life you can count on
That kitchen light's still on
[Bridge]
And even now with my own home
When troubles come and I feel alone
I know exactly where to turn
Where that familiar light still burns
[Final Chorus]
That kitchen light burns faithful and true
Just like the love she's given me and you
No matter where life takes me, I know
There's one place I can always go
'Cause Sharon keeps that light burning bright
Guardian angel in the dark of night
Some things in life you can count on
That kitchen light's still on
