Signals

V1.
There's a story of a lighthouse
It stands on that quiet shore
Waiting for the sign from a ship

A ship that sails 'round and 'round
Looking for direction sure
To find the lighthouse in darkness thick

Bridge.
Keep searching, waiting, watching
Soon the anchor'll fall
The beach is waiting, so is the tide
To hear your radio call

V2.
The ship slowly drifted in the bay
Some bay, it's fallen half away
Probably because no ship'll ever stay

Tied down to the dock so frail
Hopefully it won't set sail
To somewhere unreachable by mail

Bridge.
Keep searching, waiting, watching
Soon the anchor'll rise
The beach is waiting, so am I
To see you float away upon the tide

Chorus.
Here it comes now, just another wave
Pulling us further from our lives
On this ship, there's someone you can't save
Better hope this ship never dives
Dives below, deep down below
The dark blue waits, just like a lighthouse
All it wants is the signal to show
Just, like, that lighthouse

Bridge 2.
We're gonna go crashing waves
Split the sea dead in half
Make the sunrise appear in the depths
And hope at the same time
The lighthouse can see us
'Cause we just might go too deep
Too far under to be heard

Chorus.
Here it comes now, just another wave
Pulling us further from our lives
On this ship, there's someone you can't save
Better hope this ship will survive
Survive the below, deep down below
The dark blue waits, just like a lighthouse
All it wants is the signal to show
Just, like, that lighthouse
