They went swimming

Drank beer & watched TV

CJ couldn't sleep

So he snuck out with her keys

Out to see the lighthouse


Chorus:

Standing under the tower

Watching the big light spin

Hypnotized by the silver beam

He was never seen again

Little Sable Point Lighthouse

Just a ghost now

Decommissioned some time before

It had been the site

Of endless imagined horror

But with a calm that surprised her

Elise parked the car

& walked out to see the lighthouse

C
Standing under the tower
D
That now stood dark
Am
Surrounded by the quiet

Of Silver Lake State Park
C
Elise squinted at the scene
D
She remembered from her dreams
