Will he see my lantern burn
On this pitch black coast
Tonight
Will he know my heart beats strong,
A beacon of sweet love
Can he see my frightened eyes
Can he hear my trembling cries
And it's only when he's near
Will I be right
He went to sea some time ago
And I yearn for his return
With every storm that rocks this coast
I make the fire burn
Can he see me through the mist
Can he feel my gentle kiss
And it's only when he's near
Will I be right
And it's only when he's near
Will I be right
They say the ship, it ran aground
And every hand was lost
I'll walk these cliffs all winter long
Til my heart is numb with frost
I swore to him we'd never part
I couldn't save his drowning heart
And it's only when he's near
Will I be right
Will he see my lantern burn
On this pitch black coast
Tonight
Will he know my heart beats strong,
A beacon of sweet love
Can he see my frightened eyes
Can he hear my trembling cries
And it's only when he's near
Will I be right
And it's only when he's near
Will I be right
