I am a lighthouse, worn by the weather and the waves
I keep my lamp lit, 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
Chorus:
And the waves crashing around me,
The sand slips out to the sea
And the winds that blow remind me
Of what has been and what can ne - ver be
