In the truth of the midnight hour
Under cover of the night sky
I stand as a lonely lighthouse
Shining my bright light
Out onto the dark sea
Knowing it will draw him to me.

The bright lights of the stars above
Reflect on the endless dark sea
Millions of imaginary diamonds
Just out of reach with each breaking wave.
Their dancing lights drown mine completely.

Yet I stand as a lonely lighthouse
In the hopelessness of the midnight hour
Under cover of a beautiful lie
Shining my fading light
Out onto the dark sea
Hoping it will draw him to me.

I imagine the waves will bring him
Slowly closer to shore.
In the nostalgia of the midnight hour
Under cover of memories of love
A stand as a lonely lighthouse
Hoping those memories bring him back for more.

Far across the sea
Stands another lonely lighthouse
Shining its light out onto the dark sea
Could it be him
Searching for me?
