[Verse 1]
You say your time has come
You're tired of waking up
Don't be obscene, I can't conceive of
Living without you
You say you drag us down
No one should want you now
When I start to cry, you kiss my eyes and say
I'm not allowed to

[Chorus]
Burning beacon in the night
Can't feel its heat, or see its light
That single solitary guide, it must get lonely there sometimes

[Verse 2]
You were a child forgot
Lessons of love untaught
Now no embrace can quite replace
The one that never found you
I was raised tenderly
All that was taught to me
I will apply, your parents tried but they didn't know how to

[Chorus]
Burning beacon in the night
Can't feel its heat, or see its light
That single solitary guide, it must get lonely there sometimes

[Bridge]
Let me stand by you
The honor is mine
Let me stand by you
Loneliest light, loneliest light, loneliest light

[Chorus]
Burning beacon in the night
Can't feel its heat, or see its light
That single solitary guide, it must get lonely there sometimes
