[00:26.37]I am a lighthouse
[00:28.80]Worn by the weather and the waves
[00:33.99]I keep my lamp lit
[00:37.05]To warn the sailors on their way
[00:42.30]I'll tell a story
[00:45.39]Paint you a picture from my past
[00:50.52]I was so happy
[00:53.52]But joy in this life seldom lasts
[01:15.33]I had a keeper
[01:18.39]He helped me warn the ships at sea
[01:23.58]We had grown closer
[01:26.70]'Til his joy meant everything to me
[01:31.98]He was to marry
[01:34.95]A girl who shone with beauty and light
[01:40.14]They loved each other
[01:43.20]And with me watched the sunsets into nights
[01:48.96]And the waves crash around me,
[01:53.07]The sand slips out to sea,
[01:56.76]And the winds that blow remind me
[02:00.72]Of what has been, and what can never be
[02:25.56]She'd had to leave us
[02:28.74]My keeper, he prayed for a safe return
[02:33.93]But when the night came
[02:37.02]The weather to a raging storm had turned
[02:42.24]He watched her ship fight
[02:44.91]But in vain against the wild and terrible wind
[02:50.52]In me so helpless
[02:53.52]As dashed against the rocks she met her end
[02:58.80]And the waves crash around me,
[03:02.64]The sand slips out to sea,
[03:09.84]And the winds that blow remind me
[03:11.04]Of what has been, and what can never be
[03:36.09]Then on the next day
[03:39.03]My keeper found her washed up on the shore
[03:44.34]He kissed her cold face
[03:47.43]And that they'd be together soon he swore I saw him crying
[03:55.83]Watched as he buried in the sand
[04:00.96]Then he climbed my tower
[04:04.50]And off the edge of me he ran
[04:09.54]And the waves crash around me,
[04:13.71]The sand slips out to sea,
[04:20.79]And the winds that blow remind me
[04:21.51]Of what has been, and what can never be
[04:38.79]I am a lighthouse
[04:41.22]Worn by the weather and the waves
[04:44.64]And though I'm empty
[04:49.38]I still warn the sailors on their way
