Intro: There's a house on the headland Overlooking the sea They're burning a lantern by day and by night It is burning for me There's a fire on the far hill It's a warning to be They're burning a beacon by day and by night It is burning for me Bridge: I long to feel the anchor down When they ring the harbour bell It's good to be back home again And know that all is well And when the stormy southern seas Are running wild and free You light a lamp of love at home It is burning for me There's a light in the distance It is easy to see They're burning a candle by day and by night It is burning for me It is burning for me OUTRO:
