Текст песни: Lights of St Thomas + перевод

There in the distance are the lights of St Thomas

Calling him back to that moment in time

There in the harbor, he remembers the promise

Forever seemed honest, deep in their eyes

That night on the island, under the moonlight,

With the sound of the sea playing soft on the wind

They shared all their dreams and planned for their future

And looked to the day they’d be together again

So that night he set sail into the darkness

She said she’d be waiting there on the shore,

She said the light from her lantern each night would be burning

Until he was anchored home safe in the port…

But life can be cruel and fate was misleading

Destiny took him so far away,

By the time he returned she no longer was waiting

For it seemed he had broken the promise he made…

They say every day she’d go down to the harbor

And scan the horizon and await his return

But the years took their toll and one day she just vanished

Some say at night her lantern still burns…

So he searches the islands the ports and the beaches

He hopes one day to find her again

Now he’s a lonely old sailor with the pain of a memory

Of a love and a life and a promise not kept…

I can see in the distance the lights of St Thomas

Calling me back to that moment in time

It was here in the harbor I made her that promise

That I would return and make her my wife

And in the distance I see the lights of St Thomas
