Lighthouse Lyrics
This kind of love is more than a lifeline
For a man as weak as me
Who has no self belief
This kind of love is more than amazing
For a man who lost his way
Who thought it was too late
[Pre-Chorus 1: Shane Filan]
How did the sea
How did the sea
How did the sea get so rough
I would've drowned
I would've drowned
If you hadn't given me your love
[Chorus: Shane Filan, All]
You're the light in the dark
You're the seat in the park
You're the lighthouse
You're the lighthouse, that I need
You're the key to the door
You're the Port in the storm
And I need to find a shore
When I can't swim anymore
You always guide me back to solid ground
You're my lighthouse
This kind of love is, more than a feeling
For a man who rarely cried
I get all choked up each time
You say you love me, but you could've walked away
Could've gave my problems back
Could've left, but you took the chance
[Pre-Chorus 2: Mark Feehily]
How did the waves
How did the waves
How did the waves get so high
I would've died
I would've died
If you hadn't loved me just in time
[Chorus: Mark Feehily, All]
You're the light in the dark
You're the seat in the park
You're the lighthouse
You're the lighthouse, that I need
You're the key to the door
You're the Port in the storm
And I need to find a shore
When I can't swim anymore
You always guide me back to solid ground
You're my lighthouse
Yeah, I owe it all to you everything I have, right now
I owe it all to you everything I didn't have, you found
Everytime take me, back to you
[Chorus: Shane Filan, All]
You're the light in the dark
You're the seat in the park
You're the lighthouse
You're the lighthouse, that I need
You're the key to the door
You're the Port in the storm
And I need to find a shore
When I can't swim anymore
You always guide me back to solid ground
You're my lighthouse
[Outro: Shane Filan, Mark Feehily]
When I need to find the shore
Cause I can't swim anymore
You always guide me back to solid ground
You're my lighthouse
