Lighthouse Keeper
Quiet!
Don't interrupt the moon
She sings to me
On nights like these
She holds her silver hands out
Plays the keys
Upon the seas
One of these nights
I'm gonna meet my bride
A "Lady Love" who strolls
The beach at low tide
Together, we'll guide the mariners
We'll guide them
Back to shore
But if I'm being honest
I admit I yearn for more
But if I'm being honest
I admit I yearn for more
But if I'm being honest
I admit I yearn for more
My light never roams far
But it roams further than do I
If I see a sailor will ask him
What it's like beneath the sky
When the moon has sung
Her merry song
And no one is around
I tell myself
I tell myself
A story without a sound
It was my father first showed me
The keeping of the light
His father showed my father
Then my father showed me
But a thought I can't escape
Flows through my mind
A thought I can't escape
I can't escape
Flows through my mind
My mind
My mind
Two ships in the night
Are not as lonely
As my light
Two ships in the night
Are not as lonely
As my light
My light shines so brightly!
Two ships in the night
Are not as lonely
As my light
My light shines so brightly!
Two ships in the night
Are not as lonely
As my light
Two ships in the night
Are not as lonely
As my light
Don't interrupt the moon
She sings to me
On nights like these
She holds her silver hands out
Plays the keys
Upon the seas
One of these nights
I'm gonna meet my bride
A "Lady Love" who strolls
The beach at low tide
Together, we'll guide the mariners
We'll guide them
Back to shore
But if I'm being honest
I admit I yearn for more
But if I'm being honest
I admit I yearn for more
But if I'm being honest
I admit I yearn for more
My light never roams far
But it roams further than do I
If I see a sailor will ask him
What it's like beneath the sky
When the moon has sung
Her merry song
And no one is around
I tell myself
I tell myself
A story without a sound
It was my father first showed me
The keeping of the light
His father showed my father
Then my father showed me
But a thought I can't escape
Flows through my mind
A thought I can't escape
I can't escape
Flows through my mind
My mind
My mind
Two ships in the night
Are not as lonely
As my light
Two ships in the night
Are not as lonely
As my light
My light shines so brightly!
Two ships in the night
Are not as lonely
As my light
My light shines so brightly!
Two ships in the night
Are not as lonely
As my light
Two ships in the night
Are not as lonely
As my light
