Song information
Nightwish released The Islander in 2008. The song was written by Tuomas Holopainen and Marco Hietala.
Lyrics
An old man by a seashoreAt 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
Makin' 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
Aaah
Now his love's a mem'ry
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
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
