Little Lighthouse Lyrics
She's a little lighthouse when she
Opens up her huge eyes
And streams of diamonds shoot out
'Til we're wading waist deep in her brilliant love
She's a little lighthouse when she
Opens up her red mouth
And gold word ribbons rope and rodeo
The dark clouds in bouquet above
For how long will this dark age last?
For how long must we wait to learn?
Across the black and fossil ocean vast
I spy love and she doth brightly burn
Love sure lives in the right house
She's a little lighthouse when she
Opens up her huge mind and
Thoughts descending spears of crystal
Build a Jacob's ladder up to love
She's a little lighthouse
When she opens up her red dress
Show skin of rubber marble
Lit by knowledge and the fireflies above
And can others see this splendid beam?
Or do they navigate in dark?
If you ever want to dock your dream
Well you'll need love to guide your fragile ark
Love sure keeps a bright house
She's a little lighthouse
Opens up her huge eyes
And streams of diamonds shoot out
'Til we're wading waist deep in her brilliant love
Opens up her red mouth
And gold word ribbons rope and rodeo
The dark clouds in bouquet above
For how long must we wait to learn?
Across the black and fossil ocean vast
I spy love and she doth brightly burn
Love sure lives in the right house
Opens up her huge mind and
Thoughts descending spears of crystal
Build a Jacob's ladder up to love
When she opens up her red dress
Show skin of rubber marble
Lit by knowledge and the fireflies above
Or do they navigate in dark?
If you ever want to dock your dream
Well you'll need love to guide your fragile ark
She's a little lighthouse

This is basically about love as an ideal, and not necessarily about a specific kind of love. Andy Partridge was really big on the brotherly love theme and has a million ways to express the call for it, outside of what he's shown us already. I don't think he's religious (neither am I, for that matter), but I could see this being played by a church band somewhere in America. It really is that universal in its appeal.
