Lyrics Chris De Burgh – The Light On The Bay

Last night, I saw it there,
Shining in the dark again,
The light that all men seem to fear;

They say that sailors were drowning in the bay,

“help me —
help me —“;

I took the old path down, down to where the graveyard lay,
The place I knew when I was young,
They say that Blackbeard had hidden precious stones,
Amongst the ancient bones,
So I set off to the darkness down below,
By the candle glow,
T’was then I heard the voices, saw a light,
And started on the journey of my life;
