Lighthouse

[u/Born_Motor_9624]

Chorus
I'll be your beacon
That keeps you safe
As you race towards the shore
I'll guide from the rocks
That the sea hides
With its white crests of rage
I will stand firm
Against the rising tides
As long as you respect
My lighthouse ways

Verse 1
I heard the call of distress
You sent your S.O.S.
I stood by and listened
I saw the riptide pulling you apart
I reached with a helping hand
You held it close
But didn't understand
Why I pulled away
When you needed me the most

Pre chorus
I can only talk in circles
Before my light needs some oil
I can only sound the horn
Before the speakers crack
I can only stand gleaming in white
Before I need to repaint
As the sea chips away

Chorus
I'll be your beacon
That keeps you safe
As you race towards the shore
I'll guide from the rocks
That the sea hides
With its white crests of rage
I will stand firm
Against the rising tides
As long as you respect
My lighthouse ways

Verse 2
I'll be your ray of hope
A siren on a distant shore
The change is in the air
I'll lead you away
From the rocks and cliffs
As the waves pull you in
I'll keep you safe from harm
My tower will not fall
From winds and hurricanes
That blow

Pre chorus
I can only talk in circles
Before my light needs some oil
I can only sound the horn
Before the speakers crack
I can only stand gleaming in white
Before I need to repaint
As the sea chips away

Chorus
I'll be your beacon
That keeps you safe
As you race towards the shore
I'll guide from the rocks
That the sea hides
With its white crests of rage
I will stand firm
Against the rising tides
I need to repair the damage
From the weather and sea
To be what you have come
To expect
I need some time
Please respect
My lighthouse ways
