The Lighthouse

Let's go to the lighthouse, Gracie
I'm still so young, you know I've got a lot to learn
I know that it might seem crazy
But all it takes to change your life is one missed turn

You've had such a long day, Gracie
But on the Cape, the birds are playing on the dunes
I know that you're freezing, baby
Who would guess that it would be this cold in June?

So let's just drive till we reach forever
And I don't mind, as long as I'm with you
I don't mind the weather

It's just you and me watching the sunrise
It's just you and me and both our beating hearts
And you and I both know
We got no place to go
So just kiss me slow
Before the sunrise starts
Before the sunrise starts

The future is still so hazy
Looking through the fogged-up windows of your car
But that's just the problem, Gracie
In the back seat, you can only go so far

So let's just drive till we reach forever
And I don't mind where we go
As long as we're together

It's just you and me watching the sunrise
It's just you and me, but don't you think our friends
Will wonder where we've gone
And why it's been so long?
So let's just go on home, baby
Before the sunrise ends

But a sunrise never seems to last
I always feel it's gone too fast
When it's done and you start your day
That sunrise feeling goes away
And here I am without you
Just wishing I could go back to

When it was me and you watching the sunrise
Just kissing on the beach while the whole world spins
Looking at the sky
We can see it's getting light
So let's just say good night
Let's just say good night
Before the day begins
Before the day begins
