[Verse]

Come up to my lighthouse

For I have something I wish to say

It can wait for a moment

Well, in fact, it can wait all day

I just wanted to bring you up here

So you could have the chance to see

The beauty of this situation

That you could share with me


[Chorus]

It may seem strange to talk of love and then lighthouses

It's not strange to me, hey hey hey hey

All alone, you and I in our high tower

That's the way to be, he-he-he


[Verse]

Some laugh at my lighthouse

They say that it is just an ivory tower

But I don't mind because I know

Their envy grows by the hour

See, I have a purpose up here

To guide the ships upon their way

All this is mine, it could be yours too

But what do you say?


[Chorus]

It may seem strange to talk of love and then lighthouses

It's not strange to me, hey, hey, hey, hey

All alone, you and I in our high tower

That's the way to be, he-he-he

He-he-he

A-hey, hey, hey
