James Taylor Lighthouse song lyrics

off the coast of Africa, bound for South America

a world away from here

is a ship who sails the sea

is a man whos just like me and i wish that i was there

im a lonely lighthouse not a ship out in the night

im watching the sea

shes come half way round the world to see the light

and to stay away from me

there is a shipwreck lying at my feet

somewhere a refugee from the rolling deep

how could you lose it all and fall for me

couldnt we shine

im rolling all my golden moments into one

like to shine like the sun

one more summer day

like to shine like a lighthouse

one last summer night

flashing on flashing

fading away

well if you feel lost and lonely and dont 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

couldnt we shine

rolling all my golden moments into one

like to shine like the sun

one more summer day

like to shine like a lighthouse

one last summer night

flashing on flashing

fading away

off the coast of Africa, bound for South America

a world away from here

is a ship who sails the sea

is a man whos just like me and i wish that i was there

yeah yeah yeah yeah

like to shine like the sun

for one more summer day

shine like the lighthouse for one last summer night

see me flashing on flashing on, fading away

couldnt we shine

just one more time id like to shine like the sun for one more summer day

like to shine like the lightouse for one last summer night
