Kelly Clarkson Lighthouse Lyrics

I need a do-over
How did we end up this way?
I'm so confused, lover
Did I mistake love and pain?
Ain't got no shine left
I couldn't hide it
I almost lost all my light, yeah

I didn't choose sober
But my eyes can't look away
I see our true colors
Lately we've been looking grey
I can't turn back now
'Cause you take me back down
That road that always seems
To come right back around

We had dreams to fly away
Now the story's just a page

Like a wave you're always crashing into me
These days are harder than they used to be
No shooting stars can fix what we aren't
And what good's a lighthouse when the light is burning out?

It's such a shame when your wants and needs
They don't align
Which road to take?
'Cause your hand's no longer holding mine
I guess that's life
And sometimes you fight
And sometimes you walk away
In order to survive

There was nowhere to throw blame
Now it's when you use my name

Like a chill in my bones
When you say to me what you say to me
I thought I found home
But hidden underneath we were crumbing
No shooting stars can fix what we aren't
And what good's a lighthouse when the light is burning out?

And I feel what we were washing over me
Questioning everything all the time
And I keep all the ways that you want me to be different
Fresh in my mind
What you love, what you wanted
What you held so high
When we first met in hindsight
Were the little things that you tried and asked me to change
As if I could do that

Like a wave you're always crashing into me
These days are harder than they used to be
No shooting stars can fix what we aren't
And what good's a lighthouse when the light is burning out?
