Lyrics:

[Music begins: A slow, meandering tempo. A lone, distant electric piano plays a simple, somber chord progression. The sound is drenched in a soft, hazy reverb. A single, low-pitched saxophone line echoes the piano melody in a mournful, drawn-out way.]

[Verse 1]
The fog rolls in on the sleepy shore,
And I watch the waves from my window door.
The salt on the pane, a silver tear,
For a love that’s lost, so very near.
I light the lamp and I watch it spin,
A quiet fire from deep within.

[Chorus]
Ooh, the lonely lighthouse...
It winks and whispers in the dark.
A little light, a fragile spark,
For all the ships that sail tonight.

[Music: The bass line enters with a slow, wandering pattern, reminiscent of the "twang" in "Falling." A gentle, brushed drum rhythm begins, just barely audible.]

[Verse 2]
The gulls cry out in a ghostly sound,
Over the empty, moonlit ground.
I see your face in the watery glass,
A moment stolen, too fast to pass.
Your shadow lingers by the door,
The ghost of all I've waited for.

[Chorus]
Ooh, the lonely lighthouse...
It winks and whispers in the dark.
A little light, a fragile spark,
For all the ships that sail tonight.

[Instrumental Break: The saxophone takes a solo, long and melodic with a hint of sorrow. The electric piano provides the simple harmony. The sounds swell and drift like smoke, creating a sense of timelessness and longing.]

[Bridge]
The world is sleeping, I'm awake,
For goodness' sake, my heart will break.
The fog consumes the world below,
And to my window, you won't go.

[Chorus]
Ooh, the lonely lighthouse...
It winks and whispers in the dark.
A little light, a fragile spark,
For all the ships that sail tonight.
