On the shore the harbor lingers
A keeper standing all alone
Watching ships return in silence
As the shadows come and go
It's a refuge it's a promise
It's a tale without an end
Every anchor holds a secret
Every wave a light it sends
The harbor waits in quiet peace
Its lighthouse glowing in the breeze
The promises that sailed away
Toward horizons far astray
It's the echo of a thousand journeys
It's the start and the finale
Dreams are sleeping on its docks
The ocean took them far away
Every sail holds a faint whisper
Of storms that stole the light of day
The wind returns with subtle murmurs
Of voices lost no longer near
And still the harbor keeps on waiting
For those it knows won't reappear
The harbor waits in quiet peace
Its lighthouse glowing in the breeze
The promises that sailed away
Toward horizons far astray
It's the echo of a thousand journeys
It's the start and the finale
The keeper of the endless oceans
Watches far forever still
It sees the stars dance in the foam
And the moon tries to fulfill
The harbor waits in quiet peace
Its lighthouse glowing in the breeze
The promises that sailed away
Toward horizons far astray
It's the echo of a thousand journeys
It's the start and the finale
