Lyrics:
A moment after dark around the park,
an old-fashion gent comes parading,
Dressed in fancy clothes but singing as he goes,
The Lamplighter's
A moment after dark around the park
An old-fashion gent comes parading
Dressed in funny clothes but singing as he goes
The Lamplighter's Serenade
A moment after dark around the park
An old-fashion gent comes parading
Dressed in funny clothes but singing as he goes
The Lamplighter's Serenade
A moment after dark around the park
An old-fashion gent comes parading
Dressed in funny clothes but singing as he goes
The Lamplighter's Serenade
A moment after dark around the park
An old-fashion gent comes parading
Dressed in funny clothes but singing as he goes
The Lamplighter's Serenade
Lamplighter show the way
Lamplighter shine the path
Lamplighter cut the night
Lamplighter be a guide
Stormy seas bring havoc to shore and
Mystic
1850, in London
Heavy footsteps on the ground
In the nascent night, the lamplighter
Has started to light dozens of fires
But there is one more thing,
He made the night a little brighter
Wherever he would go
The old lamplighter
Of long, long ago
His snowy hair was so much whiter
Beneath
He made the night a little brighter
Wherever he would go
The old lamplighter
Of long, long ago
His snowy hair was so much whiter
Beneath
A moment after dark around the park, an old-fashion gent comes parading,
Dressed in funny clothes but singing as he goes, The Lamplighter's Serenade.
The grand canal
Now splashed with red
Reflects on swallows wings.
The lamplighter knows the song the evening sings.
But the gas-lamps stand like
He made the night a little brighter
Wherever he would go
The old lamplighter
Of long, long ago
His snowy hair was so much whiter
Beneath
He made the night a little brighter, wherever he would go
The old lamplighter of long, long ago
His snowy hair was so much whiter beneath
He made the night a little brighter, wherever he would go
The old lamplighter of long, long ago
His snowy hair was so much whiter beneath
You and I are the windblown
Lost in faraway places
Yet the only refuge we know
We find in each other’s faces
I will be your lamplighter, love
So you
He made the night a little brighter
Wherever he would go
The old lamplighter
Of long, long ago
His snowy hair was so much whiter
Beneath
Lamplighter please light the way for me
Burn your oil bright so i can see
Lamplighter i can't wait for the sun
Keep my feet from fumbling when i run
going but we’re not afraid to go
See the lamplighter lay out your pathway in pools of beckoning bright
Unafraid as your day turns to dark
You needn’t be
to be can'ts
While horses ride each other to lance
The lamplighter's got a nice face
No one needs to save the human race
The double people are on the case
the lamplighter if you must
And, you must
And also: get your own house in order
Here's the torch
Brighten your own troubled corners
Light it right up, light it
I'm a lamplighter
Walking in the night
Looking for a reason
To find my way home
I'm a lamplighter
Wishing on a star
To guide me to a place
Where I
We're all lamplighters
Placing in our lives
Little flames of hope
For a better day
We're all lamplighters
Walking hand in hand
Down a winding road
won't do
life is short but it takes so long
to explain my point of view.
Our own
pagan ritual
devolves
into nothing new.
The lamplighter's glow is
All hail the blackest nights
The blackest night I'd find
All hail the blackest night
Blinding me with sight
This rock of ages
Lamplighters all
