Lyrics
I miss the old lighthouse down by the shore
That and it's keeper I'll see no more
I miss the old lighthouse surely I do
The lights and the fog horn, white seagulls, too
I still hear the storm howling, waves pounding the rocks
The ships sailing by while I stand on the docks
I hear a voice shouting I see the light
Thank God for the memories of the lighthouse at night
Buoys are bouncing like red rubber balls
The lighthouse still standing so brave and so tall
Now dark fills the night as the whitecaps fall
The only thing left are the plagues on the wall
I see the old lighthouse in my mind night and day
And all of the memories gone by the way
I see the old lighthouse surely I do
If you'd ever lived there I know you would ,too
Yes, if you'd ever lived there I know you would, too
