[al:Reason's Why (The Very Best)]
[00:25.68] I am a lighthouse, worn by the weather and the waves.
[00:33.33] I keep my lamp lit, to warn the sailors on their way.
[00:41.95] I'll tell a story, paint you a picture from my past.
[00:50.18] I was so happy, but joy in this life seldom lasts.
[00:58.04]
[01:15.50] I had a keeper, he helped me warn the ships at sea.
[01:22.89] We had grown closer, 'till his joy meant everything to me.
[01:31.11] And he was to marry, a girl who shone with beauty and light.
[01:39.13] And they loved each other, and with me watched the sunsets into night.
[01:48.52] And the waves crashing around me, the sand slips out to the sea.
[01:56.93] And the winds that blow remind me, of what has been, and what can never be.
[02:08.28]
[02:25.79] She had to leave us, my keeper he prayed for a safe return.
[02:32.62] But when the night came, the weather to a raging storm had turned.
[02:42.21] He watched her ship fight, but in vain against the wild and terrible wind
[02:50.91] In me so helpless, as dashed against the rock she met her end.
[02:59.37] And the waves crashing around me, the sand slips out to sea
[03:07.73] And the wind that blow remind me, of what has been, and what can never be
[03:19.00]
[03:36.94] Then on the next day, my keeper found her washed up on the shore
[03:44.05] He kissed her cold face, that they'd be together soon he'd swore
[03:53.45] I saw him crying, watched as he buried her in the sand
[04:00.73] And then he climbed my tower, and off of the edge of me he ran
[04:09.57] And the waves crashing around me, the sand slips out of sea
[04:17.76] And the wind that blow remind me, of what has been, and what can never be
[04:30.60]
[04:37.92] I am a lighthouse, worn by the weather and the waves
[04:46.45] And though I am empty, I still warn the sailors on their way.
