Discover the story of the song > The Old Lamplighter – The Browns

The song is about an old man known as the 'Old Lamplighter' who would light up the streets at night by lighting the lamps. They had white hair and would walk down the streets leaving the lamps on or off depending on if there were couples in the park. They had someone they loved but now they only remembered them alone in their memory. The song explains that the little stars in the sky shine bright at night because the old man turns them on and off.
