Pale Moonlight

In the pale moonlight In the dark, in the dead of night Second hand from a star it shines The fire's on Cold touch of an ancient rhyme There's a god that I left behind Second-hand everywhere I find The fire's gone They told me keep to your course In chasin' after desire I'm not findin' a source Like some sun-gold fire But maybe I've been sold a lie I can't find a light Tell me how many go down and never return To the sunlit lands, heaven please Have I lost 'em for good Had a dream where I went to find Far away, over seas and time The lost shores of a distant island, for so long Woke up to the pale moonlight Cold touch of an ancient rhyme Second-hand everywhere, I'll find it The first one They told me keep to your course In chasin' after desire I'm not findin' a source Like some sun-gold fire But maybe I've been sold a lie I can't find a light Tell me how many go down and never return To the sunlit lands, heaven please But maybe I've been sold a lie I can't find a light Tell me how many go down and never return To the sunlit lands, heaven please Have I lost 'em for good
