There once was a sailor who sailed out into the sea To find a land he had never seen And he travelled far looking for the promised land Upon which he could build his lighthouse
And there was a bright silver eye watching over him each night And there were colourful northern lights reflecting waves in the sky
A long time ago he promised his unborn daughter He’ll build her a lighthouse so she could find him when it’s time for her to come A lighthouse so tall and shining so far she could see it from anywhere A lighthouse so bright she would never feel alone no matter where she would go
But as he never found the land She never found the place she had to find
