Searchlight

by Allison Russell

Lyrics
Living like a refugee, running from my own mind
All those buildings burning in the night, ooh
Maybe some things they need to burn for anything new to grow
Will there be any me left to go back to?
That's what I wanna know
Ooh, ooh
Let me feel your kindness, yeah
But you can tell me truly
Baby, how far gone am I now?
Don't let me off the hook
But maybe tell me it's not so bad
Not as bad as it looks
Tell me that I'm worth fighting for
Been swept up in the tide
Tell me that you'll be on the shore
Tell me that you got a searchlight, babe
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Lately I'm more lonely when you're home than when you're gone
Text you from the next room in the night, ooh
Babe, you know I love, I love your imagination
But I wish that you could come back, babe
From the dark side of the moon
Ooh, ooh
Let me feel your kindness, yeah
But you can tell me truly
Baby, how far gone am I now?
Don't let me off the hook
But maybe tell me it's not so bad
Not as bad as it looks
Tell me that I'm worth fighting for
Been swept up in the tide
Tell me that you'll be on the shore
Tell me that you got a searchlight, babe
Ooh, ooh, ooh
If you'll be my searchlight baby
I will be your comeback kid
If you'll be my searchlight baby
On and on and on and on (I go on and on)
If you'll be my searchlight baby (And on)
I will be your comeback kid (Go on and on)
If you'll be my searchlight baby
On and on and on and on (Go on and on)
If you'll be my searchlight baby (Oh)
I will be your comeback kid (Comeback kid)
If you'll be my searchlight baby (Yeah)
On and on and on and on (Won't you be my)
If you'll be my searchlight baby (Be my)
I will be your comeback kid (I go on and on)
If you'll be my searchlight baby (Comeback kid)
On and on and on and on
On and on and on and on and on
If you'll be my searchlight baby (My searchlight baby)
On and on and on and on
Ooh
