Lighthouse
Tresor Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
In the darkness of my night you’re the lighthouse
Under water and still we are breathing
Pull me in while we fight off our demons
Nobody said this would be easy
I’ll live to fight another day for us
We belong baby don’t you go running
Come away with me oh my light
I’ll walk the the line
And give you time
Never leavin your side
I’ll keep you near through all seasons
Got me burnin' and turnin’ hey
Only if you knew how deep is my love
Tell me what’s hidden inside hey
And I will shield baby till we’re long gone
I see you’re fighting your heart is weeping
Creeping up between the lines
Memories are starting to crawl
Are you gonna come before nightfall
You remember I used to hold you
And lay in the sun laughing till our bodies hurt
Come along baby my heart is yearning
Nothing is lost let me in one more time
Come away with me oh my light
I’ll walk the the line
And give you time
Never leaving your side
I’ll keep you near through all seasons
Got me burnin' and turning hey
Only if you knew how deep is my love
Tell me what’s hidden inside hey
And I will shield baby till we’re long gone
Got me burnin' and turning hey
Only if you knew how deep is my love
Tell me what’s hidden inside hey
And I will shield baby till we’re long gone
You hear me calling
You keep your distance
You keep me coming
I keep on crawling
You hear me calling
You keep your distance
You give me something
I keep on crawling
Got me burnin' and turnin hey
Only if you knew how deep is my love
Tell me what’s hidden inside hey
And I will shield baby till we’re long gone
Got me burnin' and turnin hey
Only if you knew how deep is my love
Tell me what’s hidden inside hey
And I will shield baby till we’re long gone

Are you gonna come before nightfall
Will you be able to face your fears and come to me before it's too late?
You remember I used to hold you
Remember the intimacy and love we shared together
And lay in the sun laughing till our bodies hurt
We used to be so carefree and happy together, enjoying life to the fullest
Come along baby my heart is yearning
I'm longing for you to join me and rekindle our love
You hear me calling
I'm reaching out to you and asking you to come back to me
You keep your distance
You're hesitant to come close to me once again
You keep me coming
Despite your reservations, you keep drawing me closer to you
I keep on crawling
I am determined to win back your love, no matter how much effort it takes
