lyrics

Silver silence murmur moonlight
Clouds of endless sighs
Light of dawning day too soon
Will coldly drown my eyes

Night is lasting still
Dreaming always will
If the fates must sometimes undermine
All I try to underline
Please don’t stand aside

Moonstone
A new beginning
Moonstone
The way to winning
Moonstone
The hope you’re bringing
When the day begins
You’ll be my guide

Fingers crossed and eyes tight shut
Looking to the future with the cards uncut
Blind to the past and the promised land
Reaching for the warmth of a helping hand

Something waits outside
Let it not be pride
If my tracks lead backward to the end of days
Or point to repetition of my former ways
Please don’t stand aside

Moonstone
A new beginning
Moonstone
The way to winning
Moonstone
The hope you’re bringing
When the day begins
You’ll be my guide

Safe in the dark where the starlights glow
Far from the reach of the devils I know
Far from the pain of the blinding storm
Somewhere in the comfort of the always warm
Front rank forward face
Best foot standard pace
Time for war and marshalling forces
Buckled on steel and charging horses
On from battle base

Moonstone
A new beginning
Moonstone
The way to winning
Moonstone
The hope you’re bringing
When the day begins
You’ll be my guide
