Lyrics:

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

I had a keeper

He helped me warn the ships at sea

we had grown closer

'Till his joy meant everything to me

He was to marry

A girl who shown with beauty and light

They loved each other

And with me watched the sunsets into nights

Chorus

And the waves crash around me,

The sands slip out to sea,

And the winds that blow remind me

Of what has been, and what can never be

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

Bun in vain against the wild and terrible wind

In me so helpless

As dashed against the rocks she met her end

Chorus

Then on the next day

My keeper found her washed up on the shore

He kissed her cold face

Let them be together soon he swore

I saw him crying

Watched as he buried her in the sand

Then he climbed my tower

And off the edge of me he ran

Chorus

I am a lighthouse

Worn by the weather and the waves

And though I'm empty

I still warn the sailors on their way
