No ocean lies between us,
But still I see your light
That shines just like a lighthouse
Through a dark and stormy night.
Though now I can't be with you,
Your light will bring me home.
I see it from a distance
No matter where I roam.
Since I'm the one that wanders
I have no light to share.
But look upon this bottle
And know that I am there.
The bottle is my lighthouse,
The words, my glimmer bright,
To draw us close together
Each day and every night.
Just as your light's my beacon,
And you, my refuge - dear,
This bottle holds my loving heart
Please keep it always near.
