lyrics

LIGHTHOUSE
Byrd/Supa..
3/15

I WAS DOWN AND SO TORN UP
WASTED EVERYDAY
I FOLLOWED MY OWN LIES
UNTIL I LOST MY WAY
GOT AN ENDLESS LIST OF MY REGRETS
I'M TRYIN' TO GET PAST
I THINK I'VE HAD ENOUGH AT LAST

THERE'S A LIGHTHOUSE OUT IN THE DISTANCE
AND IT SHINES TO GUIDE ME HOME
WHEN I'M LOST…
YOUR LOVE LIFTS ME HIGHER
WHEN I CAN'T MAKE IT ON MY OWN

NOW I HIDE MY PAIN DEEP INSIDE
SO NO ONE ELSE COULD SEE
I KEPT PLAYIN' WITH FIRE
UNTIL IT BURNED A HOLE IN ME
AND I RAN WITH MY RECKLESS WAYS
THOUGHT I'D NEVER FALL
UNTIL I CRASHED AND FINALLY LOST IT ALL

THERE'S A LIGHTHOUSE OUT IN THE DISTANCE
AND IT SHINES TO GUIDE ME HOME
WHEN I'M LOST…
YOUR LOVE LIFTS ME HIGHER
WHEN I CAN'T MAKE IT ON MY OWN

DON'T WANNA WIND UP IN AN EARLY GRAVE
THIS ROAD TO RUIN IS KILLIN' ME
IT'S TIME FOR CHANGIN' CAUSE’
I DON'T LIKE WHAT I SEE
I’VE GOT TO
I’VE GOT TO BELIEVE

THERE'S A LIGHT HOUSE OUT IN THE DISTANCE
AND IT SHINES TO GUIDE ME HOME
WHEN I'M LOST…
YOUR LOVE LIFTS ME HIGHER
WHEN I CAN'T MAKE IT ON MY OWN

THERE’S A LIGHTHOUSE
THERE’S A LIGHTHOUSE
THERE’S A LIGHTHOUSE
AND IT SHINES TO GUIDE ME HOME
GUIDE ME HOME
