The Islander - Instrumental Version

An old man by a seashore at the end of day
 Gazes the horizon with sea winds 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
 Well, 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 so long ago
 ♪
 So 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

 So long ago
