[Verse 1]

These islands once made their trade

By building ships upon the beach

The whole town lived along the harbor

To watch them carve out ships out to sea

[Verse 2]

With winter storms coursing through them

They nurtured fires on through the night

The beacons on the highest clifftops

Would tempt in ravaged ships with their light

[Verse 2]

While bodies lay across the rocks

They salvaged cargo to the shore

The empty hull now in still waters

Was a ship they built here the year before

[Outro]

And standing here, these places hide all their times

And standing here, these places hide all their times

And standing here, these places hide all their times

And standing here, these places hide all their times

And standing here, these places hide all their times

And standing here, these places hide all their times

And standing here, these places hide all their times

And standing here, these places hide all their times
