Lighthouse Lyrics by James Taylor

Lighthouse Lyrics

    Off the coast of africa
    Bound for south america
    A world away from here
    Is a ship that sails the sea
    Is a man who's just like me
    And i wish that i was there

    I'm a lonely lighthouse, not a ship out in the night
    I'm watching the sea
    She's come half-way round the world to see the light
    And to stay away from me
    There is a shipwreck lying at my feet
    Some weary refugee from the rolling deep
    Ah, would you lose it all and fall for me?

    (chorus)
    Couldn't we shine?
    I'm rolling all my golden moments into one
    Like to shine like the sun for one more summer day
    Shine like a lighthouse for one last summer night
    Flashing on, flashing, fading away

    Well if you feel lost and lonely and don't know where to go
    And you hear this song on the radio
    Or even if you're feeling healthy and strong
    You might like to sing along
    But just because i might be standing here
    That don't mean i won't be wrong this time
    You could follow me and lose your mind

    - chorus -

    Off the coast of africa
    Bound for south america
    A world away from here
    Is a ship that sails the sea
    Is a man who's just like me
    And i wish that i was there
