Upwards I climbed, above me stretched the northern sky
Beneath the great night's height I fought alone
I was at war, both with myself and with it all
My own shadow now my home
No place to call my own

Storms may come, but wild tempests won't tear me away from your arms
I'll hold to the good and the true
I'll weather your storms for the stillness in you
That night I ran, ran, ran before the storm
All of this time, you said I gave too little
But I say you asked for too much
Cos love's a two edged sword and though I'm yours I'm mine
And you'd see if you dared that our moments
Were never owned only ever were they shared
For me there must be you, and for you there must be me

Storms may come, but wild tempests won't tear me away from your arms
I'll hold to the good and the true
I'll weather your storms for the stillness in you
That night I ran, ran, ran before the storm
Ancient love, I ran before the storm
No power to take me, for I was ever yours
That night I ran, ran, ran before the storm
