A sweet girl living with her father alone in the lighthouse
Mom died a few years ago!
She takes care of dad as he guards the cliffs
The rocky ground is hard and yet vegetables still grow
Mom taught her well how to work with the land!
She also taught her how to mend and cook!
Dad watches the weather and cleans the lighthouse window
They can save many a boat from crashing
He repairs their home while she tends the hearth!
Simple meals created with love
A simple life with few trips into town, the young girl repairs what she can!
Warmth and love goes in every stitch just like mom
Dad watches his daughter blossom into a lady like her mom
He provides what he can but wishes it was more
She never complains but loves him dearly
He knows soon she will leave him to start a family
So he stores the memories of her sweet face over the newest quilt
She wraps her daddy around her finger
Both alone they live here but in a home filled with warmth
You hear the waves crashing against the cliffs but inside you feel safe and cosy
The weather is howling and the light burns true!
They are taken for granted by some others drop off extras they don’t dare get
As long as she can, she will care for the hearth
So dad can protect others from the rocky cliffs below!
