[Intro]
I am a lighthouse, worn by the weather and the waves
I keep my lamp lit, to warn the sailors on their way
I'll tell a story, paint you a picture from my past
I was so happy, but joy in this life seldom lasts
[Verse 1]
I had a keeper, he helped me warn the ships at sea
We had grown closer, 'till his joy meant everything to me
And he was to marry, a girl who shone with beauty and light
And they loved each other
And with me watched the sunsets into night
[Chorus]
And the waves crashing around me, the sand slips out to the sea
And the winds that blow remind me
Of what has been, and what can never be
[Verse 2]
She'd had to leave us, my keeper he prayed for a safe return
But when the night came
The weather to a raging storm had turned
He watched her ship fight
But in vain against the wild and terrible wind
In me so helpless, as dashed against the rock she met her end
I am a lighthouse, worn by the weather and the waves
I keep my lamp lit, to warn the sailors on their way
I'll tell a story, paint you a picture from my past
I was so happy, but joy in this life seldom lasts
[Verse 1]
I had a keeper, he helped me warn the ships at sea
We had grown closer, 'till his joy meant everything to me
And he was to marry, a girl who shone with beauty and light
And they loved each other
And with me watched the sunsets into night
[Chorus]
And the waves crashing around me, the sand slips out to the sea
And the winds that blow remind me
Of what has been, and what can never be
[Verse 2]
She'd had to leave us, my keeper he prayed for a safe return
But when the night came
The weather to a raging storm had turned
He watched her ship fight
But in vain against the wild and terrible wind
In me so helpless, as dashed against the rock she met her end
