Take what you need while there's time   The city will be earth in a short while   If I'm not mistaken it's been in flames   You and I will escape to the seaside      There is a storm in the distance   The wind breathing warning of its imminence   There is a lighthouse five hundred yards down   You and I will be safe there      There is a girl who haunts that lighthouse   She saved me, I was swimming   So young I almost drowned   Under the water she sang a story   Of losing her lover   She calls a warning      Love, you are foolish, you're tired   Your sleeplessness makes you a liar   The city is burning   The ocean is turning   Our only chance is the lighthouse      Her lover was a sailor   She went and she waited there   The door locked from the outside   Lover never arrived so she sings there   Soft as a siren luring the ships off their course, how alarming      We went in, we climbed up and looked out   The door locked from the outside   Three ghosts in a lighthouse
