Lyrics

Build yourself a boat, babe Make yourself a sail Float into the ocean To nowhere Yeah, I see you're looking Looking for a sign Praying for a beacon So here's the light My arms will be wide open For the moment you arrive, arrive When you set sail on your journey And happiness is far away Love will guide you 'til the morning Lead your heart down to the bay Don't resist the rain and storm I'll never leave you lost at sea I will be your lighthouse keeper Bring you safely homе to me I will be your lighthouse keeper Bring you safely home Yeah, I see you're lonely Going in alone Fire up the engine Stoke the coal Floating on a feeling Fighting with the tide Hoping you'll be home for Christmastime My arms will be wide open For the moment you arrive, arrive When you set sail on your journey And happiness is far away Love will guide you 'til the morning Lead your heart down to the bay Don't resist the rain and storm I'll never leave you lost at sea I will be your lighthouse keeper Bring you safely home to me I will be your lighthouse keeper Bring you safely home to me
