Little Lighthouse By XTC – Song Lyrics

She’s a little lighthouse when she

Opens up her huge eyes

And streams of diamonds shoot out

‘Til we’re wading waist deep in her brilliant love

She’s a little lighthouse when she

Opens up her red mouth

And gold word ribbons rope and rodeo

The dark clouds in bouquet above

For how long will this dark age last?

For how long must we wait to learn?

Across the black and fossil ocean vast

I spy love and she doth brightly burn

Love sure lives in the right house

She’s a little lighthouse when she

Opens up her huge mind and

Thoughts descending spears of crystal

Build a Jacob’s ladder up to love

She’s a little lighthouse

When she opens up her red dress

Show skin of rubber marble

Lit by knowledge and the fireflies above

And can others see this splendid beam?

Or do they navigate in dark?

If you ever want to dock your dream

Well you’ll need love to guide your fragile ark

Love sure keeps a bright house

She’s a little lighthouse
