Lighthouses Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
To the best thing in your life
There are things you don't appreciate
At all
So it's best that you don't try
Holding back the time
Are you ever gonna be
Postcard from heaven
Go to where you belong
Never find the perfect situation
until you know where you're from
If you ever say goodbye
No regrets, I won't ask why
And I wish you all the best luck
In the world
Should you ever change your mind
Holding back the sunshine
Are you ever gonna be
Quite satisfied
Postcard from heaven
Go to where you belong
Never find the perfect situation
until you know where you're from
Postcard from heaven
Go to where you belong
Never find the perfect situation
until you know where you're from
The opening lines of the song Postcard From Heaven by Lighthouse Family immediately discuss the importance of recognizing and appreciating the best things in life before it’s too late. The track deals with the theme of appreciating what we have while we have it, and the consequences of taking things for granted. The lyrics advise listeners to avoid trying to cling to the past, as it can only lead to unhappiness and frustration.
The message in the chorus of the song reinforces this idea of letting go of the past and moving forward. The repeated lyric “Postcard from heaven, go to where you belong” encourages us to think about our origins and returning to them as the key to finding our way. The idea that we can’t find the perfect situation until we know where we come from is a powerful one that resonates with many listeners.
Overall, the song’s lyrics encourage us to treasure our loved ones, appreciate the present, and look forward to the future with a sense of purpose and optimism.

To my daughter Winter who I miss every second of my life I'd give anything to know you are safe and happy. To hear you say "I love you daddy" just once and to tell you how sorry I am that I couldn't protect you like I promised.
I love you more than I ever thought possible and it hurts more than I ever feared losing someone could.
Rest in peace my angel
