[intro Motive]
[Verse]
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 home-ward from afar
[Chorus]
This is for long for-got-ten
G D Em Bm
Light at the end of the world
G D A Bm
Ho-ri-zon cry-in
G D Em -
The tears he left behind long ago
[Motive 2x]
[Verse]
The albatross is flying ma-king him day-dream
The time before he became one of the world's unseen
Princess in the to-wer children in the fields
Life gave him it all an island of the universe
Ohh ...
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
[Chorus]
This is for long for-got-ten
G D Em Bm
Light at the end of the world
G D A Bm
Ho-ri-zon cry-in
G D Em -
The tears he left behind long ago
[Motive 2x]
So long ago ...
So long ago ...
