The Lighthouse Keeper’s Daughter

Lyrics for the song ‘The Lighthouse Keeper’s Daughter’ by Abu Sayed. Explore the story behind the music.

I can see your fire burning through the coastal rain
Pulling my wandering heart back home again
You leave a lantern in the window by the sea
And cast a shadow that was made for me
Salt on your skin and a breeze in your hair
I trace the map of my world when you're standing there
Just a worn out guitar and the tide rolling in
Where the edge of the water and my longing begin
Every step on the floorboards, every breath in the dark
Strikes a match in the silence, leaves a glowing mark
I am caught in your current, I am losing my mind
You're the only horizon that I want to find
Oh, you are the beacon shining through the night
I drop my anchor in your warm, soft light
Tangled in the covers while the wild wind blows
Where this ocean takes us, only heaven knows
Only heaven knows
Keep shining your light on me, keep pulling me close
I tasted the rain on the edge of your lips
And felt the whole earth moving at my fingertips
There's a fire in the hearth and the embers are red
I am holding onto every word that you said
Every step on the floorboards, every breath in the dark
Strikes a match in the silence, leaves a glowing mark
I am caught in your current, I am losing my mind
You're the only horizon that I want to find
Oh, you are the beacon shining through the night
I drop my anchor in your warm, soft light
Tangled in the covers while the wild wind blows
Where this ocean takes us, only heaven knows
Only heaven knows
Keep shining your light on me, keep pulling me close
We are two drifters who finally land
Walking the shoreline, hand in hand
The compass is broken, but the path is so clear
You've got Sayed forever, right now, right here
Let the water rise up, let the tide overflow
This rhythm between us is all that I know
I never knew a fire could burn so warm
I am never leaving this shore
Oh, you are the beacon shining through the night
I drop my anchor in your warm, soft light
Tangled in the covers while the wild wind blows
Where this ocean takes us, only heaven knows
