Lighthouse Keeper

Catch a break, catch a plane, catch something else It's hard to catch the truth when you've been running from yourself Take a long shower, take a day or two Just do things in your own time Do what you've gotta do You want to be a lighthouse keeper All alone at the very edge of the world? Go ahead young girl You wanna be a lion tamer, get your head bitten off any way you can? Go ahead young man All I'm saying is I know people Finding redemption under a bridge The path to happy ain't straight So get your kicks any way that you can kid You can't change the direction of the wind but adjust your sails All it takes is a moment for your good intentions to prevail And they won't Fail You reckon you're Mother Theresa And yours alone is the world to save? Well, I remember those days You reckon you're Mahatma Gandhi And not eating is gonna prove 'em all wrong? We're too far gone Why not try patience? Try kindness? Try something new! Take 10 minutes, have a breather, yeah take some time to just do you You can't change the direction of the wind but adjust your sails All it takes is a moment For your good intentions to prevail And they won't fail
