"Leave a Light On" is a song by American singer Belinda Carlisle, recorded for her third studio album Runaway Horses (1989). Penned by Rick Nowels and Ellen Shipley and produced by the former, it was released as the album's lead single on September 25, 1989, via MCA Records in North America and Virgin Records internationally. In Japan, the album's second single, "(We Want) The Same Thing", was released simultaneously with "Leave a Light On" in October. The track features a notable slide guitar solo from George Harrison of the Beatles. "Leave a Light On" proved to be a major success for Carlisle more internationally than in America. It reached top five status in countries like Australia, Austria, Ireland, and the United Kingdom, but barely missed the top ten in the United States, peaking at number 11 on the Billboard Hot 100 and number 12 on the Cash Box Top 100 Singles charts. A music video was made for the song, directed by Peter Care, which saw Carlisle singing in the desert and in Las Vegas. The track has been certified Silver by the British Phonographic Industry (BPI) for shipments of 200,000 copies.
