Jill Scott - Lighthouse Lyrics
I know, oh
I know
That look on your face
Says you're going through some things
And 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
[Chorus:]
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) [2x]
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 going 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
[Chorus]
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

Why am i just now discovering this song? Smh.. One of my favorite tracks from Jill.. I've been playing it over and over since i heard it!
Your not alone,I just discovered this last week also, and it speaks to my soul, it reminds me of a ex of mine, that I dated 2010. No matter what ever I was going through myself, I always was his "Lighthouse" he could come to me about any burdens he had, and I would drop everything just to comfort him. He will always be my real first adult love.
If ts good for "him" Its good for me, I just laid them burdens DOWN

"Lighthouse"
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
[Chorus:]
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) [2x]
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 going 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
[Chorus]
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…

Great Lakes People~~~~!
Jill Scott... I feel like you broken into my heart, read my concerns, and put pen to paper with this song and Cruisin' .
This is what Your Jesus would say to you....Lighthouse !
Think.....
Cyril2374 Oh Yes! I thought it was just me thought of that. WOW!

" THA B O M B " ,,,,, KEEP ROLLIN"
Sometimes he needs to write with a different pen on different paper..... That is one deep line right there. WOW
It is fly as F#ck !!!
Stacey McGinnis that part took me all the way out!
I think she meant he needs to have sex with other people from time to time and she is trying to determine if she can accept that. Might be a man or a woman but its a deep line
She said I need to do that to so deep
@Kim Thornton lol
My new favourite song:))
Jill Scott!!!! Lo key, This Wifey..lbvs
Props to Jill Scott as one of the soldiers keeping R&B alive
i love this song 😍😍😍
Sitting her contemplating if we should even be.
The best track on the Album. Very thought provoking!!,
For SMH :-)
The Amazing Jill Scott has proved time and time agin that she represents that highly intuitive deeply nourishing exotic r and b style that is often called Neo Soul. (Willing) although short, vibes very intensity and the message is received spirituality as well as emotionally. Jill never stop being you! I'm so lucky to be alive to enjoy your gift.
