Track Insight / Lyrics
I pour the kettle, steam swirling high
A cup of tea to chase the evening sky
The clock ticks slow, minutes pass by
A keeper's work, waiting for the tide
In the stillness, I hear the waves crash strong
The sea's eternal rhythm holds me long
A thousand miles away, or just a stone's throw
This moment's peace, my heart can hold
Oh, the lighthouse glow in the dead of night
Guiding ships through the darkest of lights
Safe and sound, they round the bend
Heart beating fast, their journey's end
The fire snaps, a crackling sound
Warmth envelops me 'round and 'round
Outside, the world is wild and free
But in this kitchen, I'm snug as can be
In the stillness, I hear the waves crash strong
The sea's eternal rhythm holds me long
A thousand miles away, or just a stone's throw
This moment's peace, my heart can hold
Oh, the lighthouse glow in the dead of night
Guiding ships through the darkest of lights
Safe and sound, they round the bend
Heart beating fast, their journey's end
The keeper's tale, of storms and of calm
Of lonely vigils, of unfaltering balm
For every soul that sails, lost or strapped to the mast
The lighthouse stands, a steadfast friend at last
Oh, the lighthouse glow in the dead of night
Guiding ships through the darkest of lights
Safe and sound, they round the bend
Heart beating fast, their journey's end
Now the kettle's whistle, a soft goodbye
Another night slips away, the dawn draws nigh
I'll stand again, come morning's first light
Kept in the lighthouse, in this timeless night.
