Lyrics:

Ali
Ali
When do you think you might come home?
I left the light on
I-I-I-I left the light on

She drove away on a snowmobile
Trying to have some fun
Looking for an adventure
She said 'I'll be back soon
In a little while
Just keep my supper warm'

Heard word from Alaska
Where she put an end to her tracks
And found herself a castle
Change the face but the name's the same
Now she's taking them all by-y storm

Ali
Ali
When do you think you might come home?
I left the light on
And do you think you're far enough away now
To leave all your troubles behind
Just leave them all behind

She fell in love with a carpenter
Worked in a cafe and got herself some snowshoes
She wrote to me, she told me
Of biking through the Andes
Hiking through the west coast
Skiing through the tundra
Having fun
Still looking for her adventure

I went to her room just yesterday looking for a clue
And all of her things were still in their place
Trophies and her glasses
And I wondered, if I'd know her at all, anymore
Just a little girl
She's still a little girl
In my dreams a little girl
She's still my-y little girl

Ali
Ali
When do you think you might come home?
I left the light on
And do you think you're far enough away now
To leave all your troubles behind
Just leave them all behind
