Orleans - The Flame and the Moth lyrics

Once in a while, it crosses my mind
That love in this world is so hard to find
It may seem to you that I should be satisfied
To take what I've got and hold this
Hold this inside

I've often been told what money can buy
But love can't be sold
The price is too high
You may take my body, wrap me in chains
Love in my heart always, always remains

But I can't see the light if
My eyes are not open
And I know it ain't right
The road that's been taken
But we're all here together and
There's just no way off
If you're blinded by the
Glitter like the flame (yeah)
Flame blinds the moth ooh

Springtime is fine for planting the seeds
In summer, life grows, troubled by weeds
The autumn grows cool and
Everyone soon learns
That wintertime's fool, the frost
Frost quickly burns

But I can't see the light if
My eyes are not open
And I know it ain't right
The road that's been taken
But we're all here together and
There's just no way off
If you're blinded by the
Glitter like the flame (yeah)
Flame blinds the moth

But I can't see the light if
My eyes are not open
And I know it ain't right
The road that's been taken
But we're all here together and
There's just no way off
If you're blinded by the
Glitter like the flame (yeah)
Flame blinds the moth
