Lighthouse

Twyla Herbert, Lou Christie

[Instrumental Intro]

[Verse 1]
Sugar the hurt for the lonely people
Put love in the steeple, let it ring away
Let us take the peace from the meadow
Let it ring as far as the ghetto
And paint the country on its knees
Save the air for Man to breathe

[Pre-Chorus]
I hear the crowd and they're shoutin' out loud
That they're gonna save the country
And they're walkin' kinda proud
Washin' their babies in the glory river
Born again, for love is the giver

[Chorus]
Turn on the lighthousе, yeah, baby
Turn on the lighthouse and maybе
They'll get the message
That peace is gonna come
And we're gonna walk as one
You gotta turn on the lighthouse, yeah, baby
Turn on the lighthouse and maybe
They'll get the message
That peace is gonna come
And we're gonna walk as one

[Post-Chorus]
You gotta turn it on, yeah, baby
Ooh, maybe they'll get the message
That peace is gonna come
And we're gonna walk as one

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 2]
Sugar the hurt for the lonely people
Put love in the steeple, let it ring away
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la-la-la
And paint the country on its knees
Save the air for Man to breathe

[Pre-Chorus]
I hear the crowd and they're shoutin' out loud
That they're gonna save the country
And they're walkin' kinda proud
Washin' their babies in the glory river
Born again, for love is the giver

[Chorus]
Turn on the lighthouse, yeah, baby
Turn on the lighthouse and maybe
They'll get the message
That peace is gonna come
And we're gonna walk as one
You gotta turn on the lighthouse, yeah, baby
Turn on the lighthouse and maybe
They'll get the message
That peace is gonna come
And we're gonna walk as one

[Post-Chorus]
Turn it on, ooh, maybe
They'll get the message
That peace is gonna come
And we're gonna walk as one
You gotta turn on, turn it on, yeah, baby
Oh-oh, maybe they'll get the message
That peace is gonna come
And we're gonna walk as one

[Outro]
You gotta turn on, turn it on, yeah, baby
Oh, ah, maybe they'll get the message
Peace is gonna come
And we've got to walk as one
You gotta turn on, turn it on, yeah, baby
Oh, ah, maybe they'll get the message
Peace is gonna come
And we've got to walk as one
You gotta turn on, turn it on, yeah, baby
Oh-ooh, maybe they'll get the message
That peace is gonna come
And we've got to walk as one
You gotta turn on, turn it on, yeah, baby
Turn on, ooh-ooh, baby
