She lives in a tower of stone and light
Where the waves crash and the seagulls cry
She helps her father tend the beacon bright
That guides the sailors through the stormy night
She loves to watch the ships that come and go
And wonder what adventures they have seen
She dreams of distant lands and tales of woe
And hopes to sail away someday and be free
But one dark night, she sees a ghostly sight
A ship that glows with eerie green and blue
It sails towards the lighthouse with no fright
And seems to beckon her to join its crew
She feels a strange attraction to the ship
And hears a voice that whispers in her ear
"Come with us, child, and leave this lonely tip
We'll show you wonders that you'll never fear"
She hesitates, but then she feels a hand
Her father's hand, that holds her back with love
He says, "Don't go, my daughter, please don't strand
This ship is not a blessing, but a curse"
He tells her of the legend of the ship
A ship that sank a hundred years ago
A ship that haunts the sea with evil grip
A ship that lures the living to their woe
He says, "This ship is full of restless souls
Who died in pain and never found their peace
They want to drag you down to their dark holes
And make you share their misery and grief"
He says, "You are my treasure and my joy
You are the light that fills my lonely days
You are my precious and my only girl
You are the reason why I keep this blaze"
He hugs her tight and kisses her forehead
And says, "I love you more than words can say"
She feels his warmth and hears his heartbeat stead
And says, "I love you too, I'll always stay"
