Lighthouse
Kelly Clarkson Song Lyrics

I need a do-over, how did we end up this way?

I'm so confused, lover. did I mistake love and pain?

Ain't got no shine left I couldn't hide it

I almost lost all my light, and...

I didn't choose sober but my eyes can't look away

I see our true colors lately, we've been lookin' grey

I can't turn back now

'cause you take me back down

That road that always seems to come right back around.

Remember when

We had dreams to fly away?

But that was then

Now our story's just a page.

Like a wave you're always crashing into me, crashing into me

And these days are harder than they used to be, than they used to be

No shooting stars can, fix what we aren't and

What good's a lighthouse when the light is burning out?

It's such a shame when your wants and needs they don't align

Which road to take 'cause your hand's no longer holdin' mine?

I guess that's life and sometimes you fight and

Sometimes you walk away in order to survive.

Remember when

There was nowhere to throw blame

But that was then

And now it's when you use my name.

Like a chill in my bones when you say to me, what you say to me

I thought I found home, but hidden underneath we were crumbling

No shooting stars can fix what we aren't and

What good's a lighthouse when the light is burning out?

And I feel what we were washing over me, questioning everything, all the time

And I keep all the ways that you wanted me to be different fresh in my mind

What you loved, what you wanted, what you held so high when we first met in hindsight (ooh)

Were the things that you tried and asked me to change

As if I could do that (ooh)

Like a wave you're always crashing into me, crashing into me

And these days are harder than they used to be, than they used to be

No shooting stars can fix what we aren't and

What good's a lighthouse when the light is burning out?
