I'll Be Here Songtext
von Holly Cole

Look at me up at 5:00 a.m.
And the ships keep coming through
It′s 150 steps up to the place where I work
It's a lighthouse tower on the wharf

Most of the time there′s nothing much to do
Just check the bulbs and the wires
Most of the time there's nothing much to do
Sometimes I help out spotting fires

But you'll never know when you′re gonna need me
And I′ll be here waiting when you need me
Oh, you'll never know when you′re, you're gonna need me
I′ll be here, I'll be here


Last summer, there was a force ten gale
Hurricane size from the Belle Isle
Hell, we lost one sailor in that blow
You never know

Oh, you′ll never know when you're, you're gonna need me
I will be here waiting when you need me
Well, you′ll never know when you′re, you're gonna need me
′Cause I'll be here waiting
I′ll be waiting if you need me

Oh, now, I'll be here
I′ll be here if you need me
I will be, oh, I will be
I'll be here
