Lighthouse (Letra)

Curso de Violão - Fórmula Violão

Bouncing like a buoy
Drifting on the water
Singletary solitute man begins to holler
He says "man overboard"
I jump ship on the trip
It was a worldwide cruise
Trading riches for some fishes
I’ve got nothing more to lose
I’m a man overboard
I’m a man overboard

If it wasn’t for the lighthouse
Where would my life be?
On a trip bound for nowhere
On a unforgiving sea
I thank god for the light

Legs and arms are burning
I swim against the tide
Keep an eye above the water
So i can see the light
I’m a man overboard
I dream about the saviour
I dream about the shore
I feel the sand
You take my hand
And we will walk forevermore
I’m a man overboard
I’m a man overboard

If it wasn’t for the lighthouse
Where would my life be?
On a ship bound for nowhere
On an unforgiving sea
I thank god
If it wasn’t for the lighthouse
Where would my life be?
On a ship bound for nowhere
On an unforgiving sea
I thank god for the lighthouse
I thank god for the light

Lighthouse (Letra)

Curso de Violão - Fórmula Violão

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

The lighthouse lost its light on her a long time ago
She got so used to it, this long and winding road
I’ll never ever let you go, oh
I can’t believe she whispered to me
I don’t wanna breathe
Oh no

This ship of fools sails west by night-time and by day
Circumnavigates her globe like a bullet gone astray
Come on home baby, where it’s safe
I can’t believe she whispered to me
I don’t wanna breathe
I don’t wanna breathe

Even if you drink from the chalice of cheap escape and fade away
I’ll never ever let you go
I can’t believe she whispered to me
I don’t wanna breathe
I don’t wanna breathe
She whispered to me
Now I can’t believe she whispered to me
Oh lord, lord, lord

Let the light from the lighthouse,
Let it shine on me
i wonder, i wonder
if the light, from the lighthouse
would shine, would shine,
would shine on me.

Here is my thought
this is my plee,
Lord let ur holy light, shine on me
I wonder will you, hear my prayer
I know i’m not worthy, but i need your help
Lord shine your light, Shine it this way
Shine it so i can see which way to take,
My faith is in you,
To bring me through
I have One question.

I wonder….
i wonder….

LIGHTHOUSE (written by Josh Cunningham)

Lighthouse tall and grand
Standing on that cold headland
Shine your light across the sea
For a wayward sailor girl like me

Lighthouse man
Guide this sailor back to land
Steer my ship on through the storm
Back to water safe and calm

Sometimes I need a lighthouse for my own
It gets so dark I can’t see which way I’m going
Oh lighthouse man I’m all at sea
Shine a little lighthouse light on me
Lighthouse man I’m all at sea
Shine a little lighthouse light on me

Lighthouse man can’t help us all
Some he’ll save and some will fall
He’ll show you where the danger lies
But he can’t help it if you capsize
He’ll light your way but that is all
Steer your own ship back to shore

Won’t you light my lonely way back home
This sea is full of misery and woe
Oh woe betide those that say
They don’t need no light to light their way
They think they’re safe enough on their own
Drown in murky depths below

We all need a lighthouse for our own
It gets so dark I can’t see which way I’m going
Oh lighthouse man I’m all at sea
Shine a little lighthouse light on me

Lighthouse (Letra)

waving from the harbour
there behind a wave
another boat is sailing
blind into the sand
navigate the island
sweep a little wreck
weigh another
anchor here
i live in a lighthouse
on planet me
i project my heart out
on the beam
and here
in the lighthouse
the mood
is harbour dark
i’m burning my heart out
from a fire
to a spark
when it’s out there
above the water
colour of the sand
wing of dust and hover
rest upon the hand
could have been a sailor
navigate the night
dying like and incect
in the light
i live in a lighthouse
here on planet me
i project my heart out
to the sea and here
in the lighthouse
the mood is
harbour dark
i’m burning my heart out
from a fire
to a spark
then it’s dark
