Song information On this page you can find the lyrics of the song The Islander, artist - Nightwish.
Song language: English
The Islander |
An old man by a seashore |
At the end of day |
Gazes the horizon |
With seawinds in his face |
Tempest-tossed island |
Seasons all the same |
Anchorage unpainted |
And a ship without a name |
Sea without a shore for the banished one unheard |
He lightens the beacon, light at the end of world |
Showing the way lighting hope in their hearts |
The ones on their travels homeward from afar |
This is for long-forgotten |
Light at the end of the world |
Horizon crying |
The tears he left behind long ago |
The albatross is flying |
Making him daydream |
The time before he became |
One of the world`s unseen |
Princess in the tower |
Children in the fields |
Life gave him it all: |
An island of the universe |
Now his love`s a memory |
A ghost in the fog |
He sets the sails one last time |
Saying farewell to the world |
Anchor to the water |
Seabed far below |
Grass still in his feet |
And a smile beneath his brow |
This is for long-forgotten |
Light at the end of the world |
Horizon crying |
The tears he left behind long ago |
So long ago… |
This is for long-forgotten |
Light at the end of the world |
Horizon crying |
The tears he left behind so long ago |
