Its first known live performance was at the first show of this tour and the first gig in 2011, on the 24th March in Longeuil, QC, Canada.

Leave a lighthouse in the wild, Cause I'm coming in A little blind Dreamer of a lighthouse in the woods Shining a little light to bring us back home OR To help us get back into the world When to find you in the backyard, Hiding on the ceilings of our lives OR Hiding behind all, all busy lives Dreaming of a light house in the woods To help us get back into the world Cause I know I've seen you before Won't you shine A little light On us now Won't you shine a little light In your own backyard Won't you shine a little light In your own backyard Dreaming of a lighthouse in the woods Dreaming of a lighthouse in the woods
