"Godspeed" lyrics

"Godspeed"

No good, no how, no man should treat you like he do
So come on right now, it's time for you to get up and out of his house
I've known you too long to let you carry on this way
When I was in bad shape I'll never forget what you always used to say

What are we going to do with you?
You don't make it easy on me
What am I supposed to do with you
If you won't let me help you, won't you?

Godspeed
Keep the lighthouse in sight
Godspeed to you
Keep the lighthouse in sight
Godspeed to you
Put out the light
And hope that I make it alive

There's no telling what he'll do
I wouldn't want him to hurt you in that way
Things you don't say reach me somehow anyway

What are we going to do with you?
You don't make it easy on me
What am I supposed to do
If you won't let me help you, why won't you?

Godspeed
Keep the lighthouse in sight
Godspeed to you
Keep the lighthouse in sight
Godspeed to you
Keep the lighthouse in sight
Godspeed to you
Put out the light
And hope you make it alive

Godspeed
Keep the lighthouse in sight
Godspeed to you
Keep the lighthouse in sight
Godspeed to you
Keep the lighthouse in sight
Godspeed to you
Keep the lighthouse in sight
Godspeed to you
