Islander Lyrics - Dark Passion Play - Nightwish

An old man by a seashore 

At 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 

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 

Photos 

This is for long-forgotten 

Light at the end of the world 

Horizon crying 

The tears he left behind so long ago
