Windy Night

When the angry sky
Opens up its mouth
And lays down a belt of rain
From the north to the south
Close your windows
And close all your doors
And pray for those men who fall upon
Rocky shores
And when the hungry road
Points its finger at your heart
And says: Stranger follow me
I will show you where to start
Well don't make a move
To the left or the right
Or them hounds are gonna get you
Send you running screaming
Through the stormy night

And one windy night
A flickering light
Caught the eye of a passing angel
As she was in flight
She came to the door
And there she saw
A young soldier crying
As he lay dying from a wound of war
Then that angel of the Lord
Took the form of a girl
And knelt by the boy and said
I will help you to that other world

Oh rest your weary soul
Lay your head upon my shoulder
Press your trembling hand in mine
Until the night is over
For that Devil wants you
But you are a soldier
And with a friend by your side there's no need to hide
Until the fight
Is over

Oh Lord
On this windy night

Oh Lord
On this windy night

So if you need help
On a windy night
Be sure to leave a candle burning
So a friend can see the light
There may be a stranger
Come looking for you
And it may be an angel of the Lord
Come to bring you better news

On a windy night
Na na na na
Na na na na
Oh Lord
On this windy night

Oh hear me hear me Lord
Oh Lord
Oh Lord
On my windy night

Oh hear me Lord
Oh Lord
On my windy night

Na na na na
Na na na na
Oh Lord
On this windy night

Na na na na
Na na na na
Oh Lord
On this windy night

Na na na na
