build yourself a boat, babe
make yourself sa <span id="hidden1"il
float into the ocean
to nowhere
yeah, i see you' re lookin'
looking for a sign
praying for a beacon
so here' s the light
[pre-chorus]
my arms will be wide open
for the moment you arrive, arrive
[chorus]
when you set sail on your journey
and happiness is far away
love will guide you ' til the mornin'
lead your heart down to the bay
don' t resist the rain and storm
i' ll never leave you lost at sea
i will be your lighthouse keeper
bring you safely hom to me
i will be your lighthouse keepr
bring you safely home
[verse 2]
yeah, i see you' re lonely
going in alone
fire up the engine
stoke the coal
floatin' on a feeling
fighting with the tide
hope you' ll be home for christmas time
[pre-chorus]
my arms will be wide open
for the moment you arrive, arrive
[chorus]
when you set sail on your journey
and happiness is far away
love will guide you ' til the morning
lead your heart down to the bay
don' t resist the rain and storm
i' ll never leave you lost at sea
i will be your lighthouse keeper
bring you safely home to me
i will be your lighthouse keeper
bring you safely home to me. ...Expand 276
