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 me down
               
No one should want you now
                                
When I start to cry, you kiss my eyes and say
           
I'm not allowed to

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

             
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

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

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

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