For Tony. You’re in my heard forever x

Lighthouse
You were my mighty lighthouse,

You’re like a helping hand,

For me that was lost at sea 

Leading me back to dry land.
When storms were all around me

And I could not find the way.

You shone brightly through the darkness

Helping me in my dismay.
You’re presence meant my safety

Be it morning, noon or night

I trusted you completely 

Were you where there was light.
But now there’s only darkness.

You’re brightness has gone out

Nobody can replace you

Silence can scream so loud.
You are a part of me forever

In my heart you’ll always be

You were my mighty lighthouse

And now there’s only me.
