[Verse 1]

Lighthouse in the storm standing on a lonely shore

An old man calls, the tide is coming in

And as the waves are getting higher

Swallow water more and more

I start sinking to the ground, I cannot swim

Calling out for you to save me, S.O.S. what's going on?

Oh, I forgot that you have left me with a feeling that was wrong

How could I assume you'd always lend the hand that helps me out

If it's you that I still count on, I will drown without a doubt


[Verse 2]

80 feet below the surface, only darkness, all I see

Is a ray of hope the lighthouse shines for me

And as my breast starts aching and I'm running out of air

I recognise it's always been there

And in this very second, how I wish that it was you

Who has lit the fire for me, but you haven't got a clue

And again I find excuses for the things you said today

'cause with you I had utopia, but you have gone away
