Nightwish - The Islander (Album Version)

[00:58.44] An old man by a seashore at the end of day [01:02.90] Gazes the horizon with sea winds in his face [01:07.25] Tempest-tossed island, seasons all the same [01:11.52] Anchorage unpainted and a ship without a name [01:18.67] Sea without a shore for the banished one unheard [01:23.31] He lightens the beacon, light at the end of world [01:27.53] Showing the way, lighting hope in their hearts [01:31.82] The ones on their travels homeward from afar [01:38.23] Well, this is for long-forgotten light at the end of the world [01:47.31] Horizon crying the tears he left behind long ago [01:57.09] [02:13.74] The albatross is flying, making him daydream [02:17.78] The time before he became one of the world's unseen [02:22.20] Princess in the tower, children in the fields [02:26.68] Life gave him it all, an island of the universe [02:33.88] Now his love's a memory, a ghost in the fog [02:38.15] He sets the sails one last time, saying "farewell" to the world [02:42.65] Anchor to the water, seabed far below [02:46.79] Grass still in his feet, and a smile beneath his brow [02:53.34] This is for long-forgotten light at the end of the world [03:02.21] Horizon crying the tears he left behind so long ago [03:12.59] [03:19.29] So long ago [03:23.01] [03:27.55] So long ago [03:31.01] [03:53.42] This is for long-forgotten light at the end of the world [04:02.62] Horizon crying the tears he left behind so long ago [04:11.64] [04:19.14] So long ago [04:22.88]
