Nightwish - The Islander ( Lyrics )

Nightwish - The Islander
Lyrics
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
This is for long-forgotten
Light at the end of the world
Horizon crying
The tears he left behind so long ago

Nightwish doesn't sit by around the fire, the fire sits around Nightwish.

[@NoobTuber1995]

Definately one of the Nightwish's finest

[@potatoxkateri]

Amazing..

[@TheMystogunz]

This video reminded me of the movie "UP"

[@thhenrikviii]

Playing Skyrim with this as the soundtrack. Needless to say I CAME.

[@Toonzownz]

Is Tuomas singing too, or is Marco's voice just that epic that it is equivalent to two singers (I know Anette sings but it sounds like three voices too me)

[@filipsspil]

Nightwish dont sit around a campfire. CAMPFIRE SITS AROUND THEM !! :D

[@ZeMalta]

Sing an epic music while surounded by fire is normal to Nightwish

[@jarrarsamo]

I love ittttttttttttt

[@MetalJacket14]

"Gazes the horizon
With semen in his face"
Can't be unheard

[@muslimdailyalbania]

I think that all u that say this is a beautiful video doñ t even know the message . To take your ideas like a ship without water and to send them into sea .
