Lyrics

Intro

Mm

Mm-hmm

Well now

Verse 1

I wandered down a shoreline with my compass in my hand

Said I was looking for a place where I could understand

Every wave that hit the sand was whispering your name

And every tide was pulling me like currents in a frame

I wrote your letters on the clouds then watched them drift away

That's when I heard a voice that said you better stay

Pre-Chorus

And I'm falling

Falling overboard

I'm calling

Calling to the Lord

Chorus

I am lost oh so lost so so lost in your beauty

Wish I was lost on an island of lost just far off the coast

I am lost oh so lost and I'm loving every duty

Being lost with you is the closest thing to home I've ever known

Drop

Lost lost lost

Lost lost lost

Lost in your beauty

Lost lost lost

Verse 2

I packed my bags with souvenirs that never made it back

The map I drew of you and me was faded into black

The stars above rearranged themselves into a heart

And pointed every lost boy walking toward the art

I tried to swim the other way but something held me true

That something was the light I found when I got lost in you

Pre-Chorus

And I'm drifting

Drifting out to sea

I'm lifting

Lifting you and me

Chorus

I am lost oh so lost so so lost in your beauty

Wish I was lost on an island of lost just far off the coast

I am lost oh so lost and I'm loving every duty

Being lost with you is the closest thing to home I've ever known

Bridge

Now some folks say lost is lost and that's the end of it

But I found a treasure buried where the compass never fit

They can search the seven seas with all their fancy gear

I'll be stranded in your smile for a hundred years

Drop

Lost lost lost

Lost lost lost

Lost in your beauty

Lost lost lost

Verse 3

The tourists take their pictures of the lighthouse on the hill

But none of them have ever seen the way you light the still

Of every lonely evening when the fog rolls in so thick

You're the only landmark that my lost heart ever picks

I don't need no rescue boat I don't need no siren call

I just need your gentle hands to catch me when I fall

Pre-Chorus

And I'm sinking

Sinking in your gaze

I'm thinking

Thinking all my days

Chorus

I am lost oh so lost so so lost in your beauty

Wish I was lost on an island of lost just far off the coast

I am lost oh so lost and I'm loving every duty

Being lost with you is

the closest thing to home I've ever known

Outro

Being lost with you

Being lost with you

Mm

Mm-hmm

Lost

So lost

With you
