Lighthouse

Lighthouse - Jill Scott Lyrics

I know, oh
I know
that look on your face
says you're going through some things
And for sure,
maybe, for sure
I'm here, mm-hmm
here for ya baby, yes.
Whatever it is
trouble is deep
I can see by your eyes,
they're heavy to me
Talk to me baby
I am your shelter
you're safe from harm
Tornado, lightning, hurricane
can't get by me
come under my love
feel the energy
let go
lay your burdens down
I am your shelter
you're safe from harm
Tornado, lightning, hurricane
can't get by me
Come under my love
feel the energy
let go
lay your burdens down
Lay 'em down, lay 'em down
lay your burdens down
Lay 'em down, lay 'em down
lay your burdens down
Can't get by me
come under my love
feel the energy
let go
lay your burdens down
Look here, hold up
you got a lot going on
I can see by the way you walk
and how you got your shoulders on
Baby, everybody get wet
when the rain is pouring
Can't stop now
'cause the wind is foreign
It's a fact
ofthe universe, that sometimes
life is pain and it can hurt
but I know
that it'll get better
because you've gone through worse
Whatever it is
trouble is deep
I can see by your eyes,
they're heavy to me
Oh, my baby
I am your shelter
you're safe from harm
Tornado, lightning, hurricane
can't get by me
Come under my love
feel the energy
let go
lay your burdens down
I am your shelter
you're safe from harm
Tornado, lightning, hurricane
can't get by me
Come under my love
feel the energy
let go
lay your burdens down
Lay 'em down, lay 'em down
lay your burdens down(inner peace)
Lay 'em down, lay 'em down
lay your burdens down (inner peace)
Can't get by me
come under my love
feel the energy
let go
lay your burdens down.
Let go
Inner peace
Can't get by me
come under my love
feel the energy
let go
lay your burdens down.

Sitting here, contemplating
if we should even be
See, I'm in love with a man
who loves me
For me
he'd do anything
easily
Oh, his heart knows no boundaries
but
he needs some times
to write
with a different pen
on different paper
he needs
oh, he needs
he needs
mmm-hmmm
So, I'm sitting here,
contemplating
If we should even be
like him, I too have needs
Like I thought it would be,
hypnotic and sweet
like part of the dream-in'
and I need you
on the other sides of the speaker
to look up a little more
and think a little deeper
and live in your truth
I need that too.
I need to do that too
I need
...
Sitting here, contemplating.
