Luke Ritchie - The Lighthouse lyrics

Calling out Over my home town It draws them in, draws them in The ones they never found A lighthouse Sleeps in fits Watching all from sky to sea And all the life that hangs between Won't you take me to the island And the bay that I love Take me deep into the weave and Take me straight to the heart Because I want to tell you there I want to tell you myself And you know I love you more Than even life itself But I'm holding something here – And I fear for us both – In the shape of a letter That could tear us apart And I need you here I need you here now And late at night They wonder what they did To see their boys grow up and run away They're watching with a gaze that never breaks They miss the years that simply slip away The lighthouse sees all this Watching all from sky to sea And all the life that hangs between Won't you take me to the island And the bay that I love Take me deep into the weave and Take me straight to the heart Because I want to tell you there I want to tell you myself And you know I love you more Than even life itself But I'm holding something here – And I fear for us both – In the shape of a letter That could tear us apart And I need you here, need you here The light that cuts through everything The light that always stays clean The light that brings you back to me
