[Verse 1]

This world's not my home

I'm a stranger to the storm (Save me, save me)

Where the race is quickest

The tide runs strong (Save me, save me)

A big sky above me, west winds blow

Sailing long distance, breaking the foam

[Chorus]

There's a lighthouse shining in the black

A lighthouse standing in the dark

All the world's a ship

Shipwrecked on the seas

Breaking up in pieces

We're clinging to the reef

There's a lighthouse

[Verse 2]

There's a sky full of trouble

Lifetimes and fear (Save me, save me)

Taking the soundings

Now the tempest is here (Save me, save me)

And daylight is breaking on outstretched hands

Lost on the ocean, reaching for land

[Chorus]

There's a lighthouse shining in the black

A lighthouse standing in the dark

All the world's a ship

Shipwrecked on the seas

Breaking up in pieces

We're clinging to the reef

There's a lighthouse

There's a lighthouse shining in the black

A lighthouse standing in the dark

All the world's a ship

Shipwrecked on the seas

Breaking up in pieces

We're clinging to the reef

There's a lighthouse

A lighthouse

A lighthouse

There's a lighthouse

[Outro]

Holdin' on, holdin' on

Holdin' on, holdin' on

You gotta keep holdin' on, holdin' on

Oh, holdin' on, holdin' on

Holdin' on, holdin' on

Oh, you gotta keep holdin' on, holdin' on

You gotta keep holdin' on, holdin' on

Holdin' on, holdin' on
