[Verse 1]
She was just a wooden ship and I was just a light
Sailin' in the ocean, tossed up in the night
I was just a lighthouse, a candle in the sky
No one ever told me I would lead her through the night
She could squint her eyes and see, glimmerin' in the clouds
In the middle of a hurricane, no one was around
No one ever told me I would lead her through the night

[Pre-Chorus]
Woo, woo
And I was her light

[Chorus]
Our love was functional
But was it natural?
Keep the light on for me, keep the light on
Our love was functional
But was it natural?
Keep the light on for me, keep the light on

[Verse 2]
He was just a lighthouse that no one else could see
Hidden in the distance and buried in the leaves
I was just a ship at sea, sailin' through the night
He was gettin' brighter, but only in his eyes
He would squint his eyes and see the ship upon the sea
Little would he know of all the love that it would bring
No one ever told me I would make this candle bright
[Pre-Chorus]
Woo, woo
And I was his light

[Chorus]
Our love was functional (Woo, woo, woo)
But was it natural? (Woo, woo, woo)
Keep the light on for me, keep the light on
Our love was functional (Our love was functional)
But was it natural? (Woo, woo, woo)
Keep the light on for me, keep the light on

[Bridge]
Doesn't matter if it's meant to be
All I know is you either want from me

[Chorus]
Our love was functional (Woo, woo, woo)
But was it natural? (Woo, woo, woo)
Keep the light on for me, keep the light on
Our love was functional (Our love was functional)
But was it natural? (Woo, woo, woo)
Keep the light on for me, keep the light on
