The Lighthouse's Tale

I am a lighthouse
 Worn by the weather and the waves
 I keep my lamp it
 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
 'Til his joy meant everything to me
 And he was to marry
 A girl who shone with beauty and light
 And they loved each other
 And with me watched the sunsets into night
 And the waves crashing around me
 The sand slips 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
 But in vain against the wild and terrible wind
 In me so helpless
 As dashed against the rock she met her end
 And the waves crashing around me
 The sand slips out to sea
 And the winds that blow remind me
 Of what has been, and what can never be
 ♪
 Then on the next day
 My keeper found her washed up on the shore
 He kissed her cold face
 That they'd be together soon he swore
 I saw him crying
 Watched as he buried her in the sand
 And then he climbed my tower
 And off of the edge of me, he ran
 And the waves crashing around me
 The sand slips out to sea
 And the winds that blow remind me
 Of what has been, and what can never be
 ♪
 I am a lighthouse
 Worn by the weather and the waves
 And though I am empty
 I still warn the sailors on their way
