The Lighthouse's Tale [In The Style Of Nickel Creek[00:00:00]
I am a lighthouse worn by the weather and the waves [00:00:26]
I keep my lamp lit to warn the sailors on their way [00:00:35]
I'll tell a story paint you a picture from my past [00:00:43]
I was so happy but joy in this life seldom lasts [00:00:52]
I had a keeper he helped me warn the ships at sea [00:01:17]
We had grown closer 'till his joy meant everything to me [00:01:25]
And he was to marry a girl who shone with beauty and light [00:01:34]
And they loved each other and with me watched the sunsets into night [00:01:42]
And the waves crashing around me the sand slips out to sea [00:01:51]
And the winds that blow remind me of what has been and what can never be [00:01:59]
She'd had to leave us my keeper he prayed for a safe return [00:02:29]
But when the night came the weather to a raging storm had turned [00:02:37]
He watched her ship fight but in vain against the wild and terrible wave [00:02:45]
In me so helpless as dashed against the rock she met her end [00:02:54]
And the waves crashing around me the sand slips out to sea [00:03:02]
And the winds that blow remind me of what has been and what can never be [00:03:10]
Then on the next day my keeper found her washed up on the SHORE [00:03:40]
He kissed her cold face that they'd be together soon he'd swore [00:03:48]
I saw him crying watched as he buried her in the sand [00:03:57]
And then he climbed my tower and off of the edge of me he ran [00:04:05]
And the waves crashing around me the sand slips out to sea [00:04:14]
And the winds that blow remind me of what has been and what can never be [00:04:22]
I am a lighthouse worn by the weather and the waves [00:04:43]
And though I am empty I still warn the sailors on their way[00:04:51]
