Lighthouse

young love separated because of duties, hoping to last until they will be together again

I was just a small sailing boat

lost at the middle of the sea

trying to keep and find myself

go back home and again be me.

Beyond the waves I saw a light

shines and glitters beside the shore

As I came close I felt at ease

I felt that comfort never ceased.

She helped me find my missing piece

and filled me up with love and bliss

Along her coast I rest myself

Then I begin to love again.

I stayed along with her for months

we gave worth to that glimpse of time

but for long times a boat can't stay

for the sea calls it back to sail.

So I sailed to the horizon

leaving my lighthouse back at shore

and as I sail I kept an oath

that when I'm back, I'll never go.

Our memories kept me sailing

pushing through seas mighty waves

and even storms may come my way

my ship shall sail throughout the day.

Everything comes to an end

sailors retire and go home

When I come back I'd hope to see

my lighthouse still waiting for me.
