Jack Ferry - Lighthouse Lyrics

It transpires that while I was admiring you
Everyone saw something else
When they gave me their criticisms
I should not have kept them to myself
Give me a Lighthouse
I'll show you a shipwreck
All you were good for
Was making me feel bad
Let's smash our hearts against the rocks until we're bleeding
And then let's stay there til the sea starts receding
While you may have been just what I needed
You're not what I'd ever want
When the stormy pinkness approached
I should not have been so nonchalant
Give me a Lighthouse
I'll show you a shipwreck
All you were good for
Was making me feel bad
Let's smash our hearts against the rocks until we're bleeding
And then let's stay there til the sea starts receding
Maybe in a few years things could go right
Wouldn't be goodbye, just good night
We'd be older and wiser too
But the oldness and the wiseness would remind me
Of the things I hate about you
Give me a Lighthouse
I'll show you a shipwreck
All you were good for
Was making me feel bad
Let's smash our hearts against the rocks until we're bleeding
And then let's stay there til the sea starts receding
