Libera - The Lighthouse

A new ambient pop-inspired piece by ex-Libera singer and co-producer of our new album Forever, Joshua Madine, wistfully musing on the metaphor of a lighthouse.


Lyrics:


At the end of the jetty
where the walkway meets the blue.
I'll stand a-lone in the darkness
shining through.


No wind can sway me.
All rain a welcome shower.
To muse is to soar through heaven.
Hour on hour.


Roving through the night,
weary hearts ignite,
when they catch a glimpse
of that familiar light,
Nothing anywhere ever can compare
to the one who’s always there.


O, great conveyor
for you I’ll be an aid.
You’ll steer an untroubled passage
unswayed.


But, sweet deliv'rer,
one day, to me, attend.
I'll long to hear you calling,
my friend.


Roving through the night,
weary hearts ignite,
when they catch a glimpse
of that familiar light,
Nothing anywhere ever can compare
to the one who’s always there.


Out of the fog out of the mire
a familiar outline fires afar.
Hurrying over the glimmering bath
stemming the tide holding us apart.


Ploughing ahead with certain design,
a shot in the dark, an invisible line,
long awaited, hurtling through,
into the light and I'm born anew.


Now after all, returned again,
you heard my call, you heard, my friend,
and while away, I watched afar,
now here you’ll stay, now here you are.
