    Lyrics:
    Like shadows on the wall
    You come and you go
    Through the streets
    And the rain that falls down
    On our sin
    No more good-byes
    Forever this way
    Whenever the greatest flame in the world
    Starts burning
    This is our life, and our time
    And nothing, is ever going to break us
    Now we're on our own
    Always in your eyes
    A waking of souls
    We gaze out on the road
    That brought us up
    To this place
    The signposts never change
    We'll go where they lead
    Whenever the day to break us comes
    We'll not give in
    This is our life, and our time
    And nothing, is ever going to break us
    Now we're on our own
    This is our place, in our lives
    And no one can ever change this moment
    Or pull this mountain to the ground
    Live the day when the flame is strong
    Live the day when the flame is strong
    Come the day when love is gone
    Take it over, Take it over
    Live the day when the flame is strong
    Live the day when the flame is strong
    Come the day when love is gone
    Take it over
    This is our life, and our time
    And nothing, is ever going to break us
    Now we're on our own
    This is our place, in our lives
    And no one can ever change this moment
    Or pull this mountain to the ground

      Interesting to read your comment, Craig. Just last week, I had a very similar experience with my mom (89) who also suffers from dementia. She was very driven and restless that day - when, in utter dispair, I started to play RUNRIG's "THE STORY" for my own sanity. Miraculously, mom almost instantly calmed down, reached for my hand, and appeared content and at peace. Amazing. 🎶 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 🙏
