Jill Scott - Lighthouse lyrics

I know, oh i know
That look on your face
Says you’re going through some things
And for sure maybe for sure
I’m here mmm hmm here for you baby
Yes whatever it is
Trouble is deep i can see by your eyes
They’re heavy to me talk to me baby

I am your shelter you’re safe from harm
Tornado, lightening, hurricane
Can’t get by me come under my love
Feel the energy let Go
Lay your burdens down (lay your burdens down)
Lay’em down Lay’em down
Lay your burdens down
Lay’em down Lay’em down
Lay your burdens down can’t get by me
Come under my love feel the energy
Let Go lay your burdens down

Look here hol’ up you got a lot goin on
I can see by the way you walk
And how you got your shoulders on
Baby everybody get wet
When the rain is falling
Can’t stop now cause the wind is foreign
It’s a fact of the universe
That sometimes life is pain
And it can hurt but, I know
That it’ll get better
Because you’ve gone through worse hey

Whatever it is trouble is deep
I can tell by your eyes they’re heavy to me
Oh my baby i am mmmm

I am your shelter you’re safe from harm
Tornado, Lightening, Hurricane
Can’t get by me come under my love
Feel the energy let Go
Lay your burdens down (lay your burdens down)
Lay’em down Lay’em down
Lay your burdens down
Lay’em down Lay’em down
Lay your burdens down can’t get by me
Come under my love feel the energy
Let Go lay your burdens down

Sitting here contemplating
If we should even be
See I’m in love with a man who loves me
For me he’d do anything
Easily oh his heart knows no boundaries
But he needs
Sometimes to write
With a different pen on different paper
He needs (oh) he needs
He needs mmm hmmm
So I’m sitting here contemplating
If we should even be like him
I, too, have needs like
Like my thought on a beat hypnotic and sweet
Like part of the dream
And I need you
On the other side of the speaker
To look up a little more
And think a little deeper
And live in your truth i need that too
I need to do that too i need

Sitting here… contemplating
