Lighthouse Lyrics

Sat here now, in my little flat

Somehow confused about, where I'm going back

Cause right now I'm surrounded

By ten by nine walls

Packed bags, guitar cases like my friends from halls

I didn't go to no uni, didn't earn a degree

But I'm twenty years old- there's life left in me

Just the real world called

And asked where I was at

And I said I'm writing stories on the floor this I'm sat

Come, and rest now

In the middle of the storm

Can I be a lighthouse

To guide you back home

Come and touch down

From being so high

I'll be a lighthouse

With the door open wide

Transition into remission, it's a family tradition

Every four years I'm moving to a house on a mission

Make home, lay your roots

Learn new people's names

Join a club, learn to bake, you get used to the pain

Out here, in the open, as a child unspoken

I found my voice through the tones

Of the strings that I've broken

And through all the noise, and the pre-owned toys

I learnt from nights of sorrow

That they'll come great joy

Come, and rest now

In the middle of the storm

Can I be a lighthouse

To guide you back home

Come and touch down

From being so high

I'll be a lighthouse

With the door open wide

I'll be a lighthouse

With the door open wide

I'll be a lighthouse

With the door open wide

I'll be a lighthouse

With the door open wide

I'll be a lighthouse

With the door open wide

Oh that I'd have wings, like a dove

I'd fly away and rest

I'd fly far away, to the quietness

Of wilderness

How quickly I'd escape

From the wild storm of hatred

For you have ransomed me, and I know

That you will keep me safe

Come, and rest now

In the middle of the storm

Can I be a lighthouse

To guide you back home

Come and touch down

From being so high

I'll be a lighthouse

With the door open wide

I'll be a lighthouse

With the door open wide
