The Lighthouse's Tale - Nickel Creek[00:00:00]

I am a lighthouse[00:00:26]

Worn by the weather and the waves[00:00:29]

I keep my lamp lit[00:00:34]

To warn the sailors on their way[00:00:37]

I'll tell a story[00:00:42]

Paint you a picture from my past[00:00:46]

I was so happy[00:00:51]

But joy in this life seldom lasts[00:00:54]

I had a keeper[00:01:16]

He helped me warn the ships at sea[00:01:19]

We had grown closer[00:01:24]

'Til his joy meant everything to me[00:01:27]

He was to marry[00:01:32]

A girl who shone with beauty and light[00:01:35]

They loved each other[00:01:40]

And with me[00:01:43]

Watched the sunsets into nights[00:01:44]

And the waves crash around me [00:01:49]

The sand slips out to sea [00:01:53]

And the winds that blow remind me[00:01:57]

Of what has been [00:02:01]

And what can never be[00:02:05]

She'd had to leave us[00:02:26]

My keeper [00:02:29]

He prayed for a safe return[00:02:30]

But when the night came[00:02:34]

The weather to a[00:02:37]

Raging storm had turned[00:02:39]

He watched her ship fight[00:02:42]

But in vain against[00:02:45]

The wild and terrible wind[00:02:47]

In me so helpless[00:02:51]

As dashed against the[00:02:54]

Rocks she met her end[00:02:55]

And the waves crash around me [00:02:59]

The sand slips out to sea [00:03:04]

And the winds that blow remind me[00:03:08]

Of what has been [00:03:11]

And what can never be[00:03:15]

Then on the next day[00:03:37]

My keeper found her[00:03:40]

Washed up on the shore[00:03:41]

He kissed her cold face[00:03:44]

And that they'd be together[00:03:48]

Soon he swore[00:03:49]

I saw him crying[00:03:53]

Watched as he buried in the sand[00:03:56]

Then he climbed my tower[00:04:01]

And off the edge of me he ran[00:04:04]

And the waves crash around me [00:04:09]

The sand slips out to sea [00:04:14]

And the winds that blow remind me[00:04:18]

Of what has been [00:04:22]

And what can never be[00:04:25]

I am a lighthouse[00:04:39]

Worn by the weather and the waves[00:04:42]

And though I'm empty[00:04:47]

I still warn the sailors on their way[00:04:50]
