about

Written about the romance and longing that long-distance relationships bring, ‘Lighthouse’ features acoustic piano as well as 3 voices, blending together like the waves at sea. Reminiscent of Joni Mitchell and Phoebe Bridgers, the song starts off like a calm shore and leaves you floating in stormy waters.

lyrics

LYRICS:

You’re always gone and I’m greedy for you
Selfish as the sun for the moon
I wanna breathe you
Near me
Harder to hear you
When you’re gone

The second time you come back to me
Won’t hesitate like I did
I wanna trust in myself
Maybe there’s purpose in fear

I can’t make out the lines of us
When you’re always in the air
You are my lighthouse shining
I am the waves of wonder wishing I was there

But distance is harder
A dream
Always letting go of you and me
And I need more time
To breathe
How do you love so easily?
And will you come back to us,
Or will you disappear?
And will there be something left
When you return here..
