about

This is the story of my family's journey out to the Althorpe Island light station as seen through my Dad's eyes.

lyrics

Got our whole life packed up in this small wooden boat,
Leaving Stenhouse Bay with our hearts full of hope,
With the love of my life and they are three barmy bairns,
The waiting is over, the adventure's at hand,

And we sail, we follow our dreams to a light on a rock in the heart of the sea,

The bow pushes gamely on through the waves,
And I feel the wind and salt spray on my face,
My skin is tingling, I've got a plan,
I've never felt so alive by God I'm a man,

And I breathe, I breathe it all in,
The air seems so sweet as our new life begins,

Said goodbye to the army I won't go to war,
I've got more precious things that I'm fighting for,
Now I can see the clifftops, almost touch the sand,
And I'm fit to burst as we draw near to land,

With my clan gathered safe in my arms,
I'll sign the lamp and keep all souls from harm,
My soul sings, oh to be free,
On a light on a rock in the heart of the sea.
