Background

The song was inspired by a journey Spraggan made across America at the age of 18 with just her guitar and a three-month Visa, Spraggan said, "Lighthouses are my good omen. When I was in the US and stuff went wrong, when I'd miss the last bus or I'd run out of money, I'd always see a lighthouse on a piece of paper, beer bottle or in real life then things would start getting better."[1][2]
