Lighthouse

from KAIROS by Luke Vassella

/

about

I’ve played at a lot of weddings and parties over the years and many of them were around Byron Bay. ’Lighthouse’ is a tribute to those memories, to that joy and celebration. Its been an incredible privilege, though I’ve been a stranger, I’ve been a part of many families.
It’s a song about cherishing the memories, and recognising the faith that keeps you moving forward, to keep dreaming.
Thank you 🙏

LIGHTHOUSE words & music by Luke Vassella

Long may the Bangalow Road always take us back
To that summer of '95
When the North Coast was new to me
Lookin out from the top of the Coolamon scenic drive
Between a million stars, the cloudcatcher and the sea
The moon lit up a liquid path, and the light swept over me

I'm still dreaming, under the lighthouse
Oh Byron Bay, I'm still trying to figure you out

So let the North Coast party never end
Let the Byron girls stay forever young
Half a lifetime under the mystic light
I'm still believing the best is yet to come
O lover of my soul I heard your song, I know you're there
From Wategoes to the Rosebank hills I been singing to you everywhere

Ooh I'm still dreaming, under the lighthouse
Another drifter in Byron Bay I'm still trying to figure it out
Just another grain of sand, has washed up on your beach
Just another outstretched hand for a dream almost in reach

I remember that music, that girl, bouncing to the beat in a beautiful world
I remember that freedom, that girl, swirling with the rhythm as the fire twirled

Ooh I'm still dreaming, under the lighthouse
Oh Byron Bay I'm still trying to figure you out
Just another grain of sand, has washed up on that beach
Just another outstretched hand for a dream almost in reach

What's not to love about those curves along the Bangalow Road
What's not to love under the lighthouse
