flicker þarký sözü

have i become, a target that some people
can´t resist?
my flaws have become a greater risk
if my name is a synonym to love and
happiness then why am i bombarded
with distress?
my old friends, haven´t seen them since i
don´t know when
but i can send them a signed 8 by 10
my sweetheart, she understands why i´m away
but still it gets harder every day

but it´s my delight, to sing all night
till the sun comes up again

after all my cross isn´t hard to bear
it is heavy, i am weak, but you are there
there are times when i am down and
feel undone
you pursue me like i am your only son
my old flaws you´ve overlooked and put to rest
they´re farther than the east is from the west

but it´s my delight, to sing all night
till the sun comes up again
yes it´s my delight, to share a flicker
of your light
just a ray of hope to a friend

i´ve spent about 24 hours in a flying j
truck stop
i haven´t had a shower and ´bout to drop
it really doesn´t matter if we make it all up

if it wasn´t for the lighthouse
where would my life be?
on a ship bound for nowhere
on an unforgiving sea
i thank god
if it wasn´t for the lighthouse
where would my life be?
on a ship bound for nowhere
on an unforgiving sea
i thank god for the lighthouse
i thank god for the light.
