The Lighthouse Lyrics

Easy for anyone to see

The one I loved went out to sea

Got caught up in all of the waves

And the fishermen's debris

I wasn't as sad as I'd thought

After all, it wasn't anyone's fault

The sun keeps deciding to rise

And I keep going along with it

(Ooh) there's a boy in the lighthouse

(Ooh) I can see him through the trees

And everyone else keeps moving on

But I swear, he never leaves

Word started getting around

Apparently, my love didn't drown

He sailed to an island

Met a princess, and got him a crown

But I'm still not too shaken up

After all, it was anyone's luck

Monsoons have been bad in the east

Maybe his boat got stuck

And there's a boy in the lighthouse

He sends me letters sometimes

Sitting up there with the light out

But he writes the prettiest lines

I would go up there and find him

But, to tell you the truth

I'm afraid it's all in my mind

So, I watch the lighthouse from the roof
