The Lighthouse You Stood Beside When I picked up that perfect seashell I looked to my far left Under the pitch black clear skies And above the deep dark waters Was a light A light to steer away ships And show waves where to hit In my hand was the seashell that I was planning to give to you Over there was the light And you were in my head I thought you were over beside the light And by morning time the waves would have Washed you up on the sand I'm standing on The next morning I woke up and went to the Sand where I stood the night before All that was there was another perfect shell Which gave me hope for another dream filled night I look over to the far left But the sun shadowed out the light |
