[00:25.680] I am a lighthouse, worn by the weather and the waves.
[00:33.330] I keep my lamp lit, to warn the sailors on their way.
[00:41.950] I'll tell a story, paint you a picture from my past.
[00:50.180] I was so happy, but joy in this life seldom lasts.
[01:15.500] I had a keeper, he helped me warn the ships at sea.
[01:22.890] We had grown closer, 'till his joy meant everything to me.
[01:31.110] And he was to marry, a girl who shone with beauty and light.
[01:39.130] And they loved each other, and with me watched the sunsets into night.
[01:48.520] And the waves crashing around me, the sand slips out to the sea.
[01:56.930] And the winds that blow remind me, of what has been, and what can never be.
[02:25.790] She had to leave us, my keeper he prayed for a safe return.
[02:32.620] But when the night came, the weather to a raging storm had turned.
[02:42.210] He watched her ship fight, but in vain against the wild and terrible wind
[02:50.910] In me so helpless, as dashed against the rock she met her end.
[02:59.370] And the waves crashing around me, the sand slips out to sea
[03:07.730] And the wind that blow remind me, of what has been, and what can never be
[03:36.940] Then on the next day, my keeper found her washed up on the shore
[03:44.050] He kissed her cold face, that they'd be together soon he'd swore
[03:53.450] I saw him crying, watched as he buried her in the sand
[04:00.730] And then he climbed my tower, and off of the edge of me he ran
[04:09.570] And the waves crashing around me, the sand slips out of sea
[04:17.760] And the wind that blow remind me, of what has been, and what can never be
[04:37.920] I am a lighthouse, worn by the weather and the waves
[04:46.450] And though I am empty, I still warn the sailors on their way.
