Song information On this page you can read the lyrics of the song The Islander , by - 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 |
