You are needing a friend |
|
For to follow, for to fend |
|
And I haven't got a clue |
|
If getting I'm through to you |
|
My lighthouse |
|
. |
|
In the violent moonlight |
|
I am searching the tide |
|
In a vessel, in the storm |
|
And you're the kind host, in the port |
|
My lighthouse |
|
. |
|
And we'll be there to right our wrongs |
|
In the time it took to write this song |
|
And we'll beat the ghost with our bare hands |
|
And we'll skin the corpse and we'll love and laugh |
|
And we'll dance all everlasting day |
|
And you'll sing to me everything I meant to say |
|
And we'll drink to the gentle, and meek and the kind |
|
And the funny little flaws in this earthly design |
|
From the Reeperbahn to the Sundarban |
|
I will heed your call from the dust and the sand |
|
And I'll save all my stories for thee |
