Lighthouse Songtext

There is a storm in the distance

The wind breathing warning of its imminence

There is a lighthouse, five hundred yards down

You and I will be safe there



There is a girl who haunts that lighthouse

She saved me, I was swimming

So young I almost drowned

Under the water, she sang a story

Of losing her lover, she calls a warning


Love, you are foolish, you're tired

Your sleeplessness makes you a liar

The city is burning

The ocean is turning

Our only chance is the lighthouse



Her lover was a sailor

She went and she waited there

The door locked from the outside

Lover never arrived so she sings there

Soft as a siren, luring the ships off their course

How alarming



We went in, we climbed up and looked out

The door locked from the outside

Three ghosts in a lighthouse
