You say your time has comeYou're tired of waking upDon't be obsceneI can't conceive of living without youYou say you'd drag me downNo one should want you nowI start to cryYou kiss my eyes and say I'm not allowed toBurning beacon in the nightCan't feel its heat or see its lightThat single solitary guideIt must get lonely there sometimesYou were a child forgotLessons of love untaughtNow no embrace can quite replaceThe one that never found youI was raised tenderlyAnd all that was taught to meI will applyYour parents triedBut they didn't know how toBurning beacon in the nightCan't feel its heat or see its lightThat single solitary guideIt must get lonely there sometimesCan't feel its heat or see its lightLet me stand by youHonor is mineLet me stand by youLoneliest lie, loneliest lie, loneliest lieBurning beacon in the nightCan't feel the tears, see it's lightSingle solitaire guideIt must get lonely there sometimes
