 repeat Intro
 Would you move the mountain
 Would you build that tower
 Would you drink the sunshine
 Like a wilted flower
 Would you waste that hour
 If you knew this full  moon would be  the last  one you'd see
 Or would you gaze in wonder
 While the world was turning
 While the moon made quiet
 All the years of yearning
 Would the flame keep burning
 If you knew the powers  that be  would set you free
 Don't know why you had to go
 In the stormy night a flame  in the darkness
 And we'll never really know
 If you'll ever see  me again
 repeat Intro
 Swam around in circles
 In the angry ocean
 And your dream of safety
 Just a lost emotion
 Could a faded notion
 Make you find your way  back to shore looking  for more
 So we head for safety
 But we never get  there
 And I brush the shadows
 From a scary nightmare
 On the road to nowhere
 Would you help me carry  my cross  and set me free
 Don't know why you had to go
 In the stormy night a flame  in the darkness
 And we'll never really know
 If you'll ever see  me again

 In stormy night
Oh,  we’ll never know
