Nickel Creek - Lighthouse's Tale (HD)
I am a lighthouse
Worn by the weather and the waves
I keep my lamp lit
To warn the sailors on their way
I had a keeper
He helped me warn the ships at sea
We had grown closer
Til his joy meant everything to me
And he was to marry
A girl who shown with beauty and light
And they loved each other
And with me watched the sunset into night
And the waves crashing around me
The sand slips out to sea
And the winds that blow remind me
Of what has been and what can never... be...
She'd had to leave us
My keeper, he prayed for her safe return
But when the night came,
The weather to a raging storm had turned
He watched her ship fight,
But in vain against the wild and terrible wind
In me so helpless
As dashed against the rocks she met her end
And the waves crashing around me
The sand slips out to sea
And the winds that blow remind me
Of what has been and what can never... be...
Then on the next day,
My keeper found her washed up on the shore
He kissed her cold face
That they'd be together soon he swore
I saw him crying
Watched as he buried her in the sand
Then he climbed my tower
And off the edge of me he ran
And the waves crashing around me
The sand slips out to sea
And the winds that blow remind me
Of what has been and what can never... be...
I am a lighthouse
Worn by the weather and the waves
And though I'm empty
I still warn the sailors on their way

Nickel Creek - When You Come Back Down (HD)

You got to leave me now, you got to go alone You got to chase a dream, one that's all your own Before it slips away When you're flyin' high, take my heart along I'll be the harmony to every lonely song That you learn to play When you're soarin' through the air I'll be your solid ground Take every chance you dare I'll still be there When you come back down When you come back down I'll keep looki...

Nickel Creek - Reasons Why (HD)
Переглядів 68 тис.15 років тому
Where am I today, I wish that I knew 'Cause looking around there's no sign of you I don't remember one jump or one leap Just quiet steps away from your lead I'm holding my heart out but clutching it too Feeling is short of a love that we once knew I'm calling this home when it's not even close I'm playing the role with nerves left exposed Standing on a darkened stage Stumbling through the lines...
Nickel Creek - This Side (HD)

One day you'll see her and you'll know what I mean. Take her or leave her she will still be the same. She'll not try to buy you with her time. Nothing's the same, as you will see when she's gone. It's foreign on this side, And I'll not leave my home again. There's no place to hide And I'm nothing but scared. You dream of colors that have never been made, You imagine songs that have never been p...
Nickel Creek - Speak
Переглядів 45 тис.15 років тому
Well, I sat down next to a photograph. Tried my best, almost made her laugh. She was my toughest crowd. There in the way was a mountain up in the clouds. Well, I can't sleep and I'm not in love. I can't speak without messing up. Eyes tell of what's behind... Hers showed the way to a long and a lonely climb. But through failure I'll proceed. And she'll see how far I've come. And it's you and me ...
Nickel Creek - When In Rome

Where can a sick man go? When he can't choke down the medicine The old Doc knows. A specialist came to town, but he stays at home Saying no one knows, so I don't, Honey, when in Rome. Where can a teacher go? Wherever she thinks people need the things she knows. Hey, those books you gave us look good on the shelves at home And they'll burn warm in the fireplace, Teacher, when in Rome. Grab a bla...

    A beautiful soul named Jason gave me this song in a dark place in my life. We lost touch, I can’t find him. I check back on this song so often just to see if by some miracle he has commented looking for me. The last thing he said to me was “I’ll hold the line.” I hope and pray when he hears this he hears his angel because I hear mine. I’m still holding the line. It’s been so many years, but I won’t stop looking even if I only see him in this song.

      This has to be one of the most beautiful songs I've heard. The lyrics, the melody, harmonies, & the singers voice so suits the song. I'm walking my dog in a beautiful place right now, evening sun is slowly going down, & it is on repeat, making a beautiful evening all round. I love the lighthouse tale too.

    My son at 17 right after 9/11, came to me and said, “we have to do something.” For him that meant joining the Marines, and choosing infantry. Which the recruiter had said the numbers were very high for infantry. Just short by a year or so for his 20th year in the Marines, he lost his battle with ptsd. We found out afterward he had been seeking help the previous year, but they never official diagnosed him with sleep deprivation and ptsd, which he described, so no treatment was given. A few months after his passing this song began playing spontaneously, come to find out it was on his playlist. No one else knew of or ever heard the song play before. I believe he intended it for his family that he left behind. Please follow up and check up on loved ones, especially those who have fought for our freedom. Love you, Corey Lee
