The Lighthouse Of Alexandria

(álbum: On The Way Back To Beatenberg - 2022)

To the lighthouse of Alexandria
To the faded library where I go
Whenever I am feeling beside myself

To the western wing
Where they keep everything
I've never read
To the giant blocks of limestone
Lying underwater now

And the coastline changes
As I turn the pages
And I'm in both places
Spanning ages

To the lighthouse of Alexandria
To the lonely tower where I've hidden
All the things I want to show
To everyone

To the broken entrance
Where I wanted you to follow me
To the nighttime harbour
After days of drifting on the sea

And the coastline changes
As I trade with traders
And I work for wages
Spanning ages

To the lighthouse of Alexandria

Call my mind back it's midnight now it's midnight
Call midnight back it's daylight now it's daylight
Come see me in the sunlight in the sunlight
I can't see you cause it's too bright now, it's too bright

Call my mind back it's midnight now it's midnight
Call midnight back it's daylight now it's daylight
Come see me in the sunlight in the sunlight
I can't see you cause it's too bright now, it's too bright
