[Verse 1]
I am a stranger, on a winter's night
mile after mile, light after light
the moon a lantern, for the frozen world
moon after moon, a string of pearls
[Verse 2]
I am a mother, I count the years
day after day, tear after tear
my boys beloved, my precious girls
joy after joy, on a string of pearls
[Verse 3]
I am a daughter, I am a son
heart after hearts, hope begun
my mother's hands, my father's curls
love after love, on a string of pearls
[Verse 4]
I am a stranger, on a winter's night
reach for the joy, lean for the light
the moon a lantern, of a frozen world
moon after moon, on a string of pearls
the distant candles, the stars a swirl
moon after moon, on a string of pearls
[Outro]
moon after moon (repeat 8x)
