Lyrics:
Chris De Burgh Moonfleet Other Stories

out who you are In this life There is a road that you must follow To the left or the right One is wide but the other is hard and narrow Take this one

there beside me, everything forgave; Held me as a father, showing me the way, There can be no greater love; No fear did he have before the storm, The fate of others

to Moonfleet Bay Blow wind blow and send them home again Set the sails for England's way Many a heart is grieving for them Bring them back to Moonfleet

Let there be light where there was darkness, Let there be love where there was hate, Even in the terrors of the night, Sooner or later, comes the day

Long years would be lost and over since the morning train, And the words that he called out to her, "I'll be back again! We will all be home for Christmas

Love burns in a young man's heart, He would give her the moon and the stars, And all the Treasures of the Pharaohs for a moment in her arms; To the Ball

In those verses of the Bible, A message was concealed, And soon for John, The secret was revealed; Deep in a Castle well, The treasure could be found

And so it began The story how Elzevir would look after John as his own son And the smugglers betrayed on Moonfleet Bay By Maskew looking now at Elzevir

From candles burning, shadows in the night People praying for eternal life But my mind just keeps on wandering Away from this serene and hallowed place
