Leave a lighthouse in the wild,
Cause I'm coming in
A little blind
Dreamer of a lighthouse in the woods
Shining a little light to bring us back home OR To help us get back into the world

When to find you in the backyard,
Hiding on the ceilings of our lives OR Hiding behind all, all busy lives
Dreamers of a light house in the woods
To help us get back into the world

Cause I know
I've seen you before
Won't you shine
A little light
On us now

Won't you shine a little light
In your own backyard
Won't you shine a little light
In your own backyard

Dreaming of a lighthouse in the woods
Dreaming of a lighthouse in the woods
