You say your time has come
You're tire of waking up
Don't be obscene,
I can't conceive of
Living without you
You say you drag me down
No one should want you now
I start to cry,
You kiss my eyes and say
I'm not allowed to
Burning beacon in the night
Can't feel its heat or see its lights
That single solitary guide
It must get lonely there sometimes
You were a child forgot
Lessons of love untaught
Now no embrace can quite replace
The one that never found you
I was raised tenderly
All that was taught to me
I will apply,
Your parents tried
But they didn't know how to
Burning beacon in the night
Can't feel its heat or see its lights
That single solitary guide
It must get lonely there sometimes
Let me stand by you
The honor is mine
Let me stand by you
Loneliest light
Loneliest light
Loneliest light
Burning beacon in the night
Can't feel its heat or see its lights
A single solitary guide
