Lyrics

It was a Dark and Stormy night
Against an old grand piano
The maestro played a serenade
To sooth the aching soul

Happiness Is a Sad Song
That echoes through the halls
But the harmony softly reminds us
That we are not alone

I never promised you an apple orchard
But all my love I give to you

It was a dark and stormy night
In an old abandon field
The vulture lay eyeing all
Awaiting for the kill

For the life that blankets over us
Treaties out our days
And the pangs of defeat that comfort us
Guide us on our way

We never promised you an apple orchard
But all our love We give to you

It was a dark and stormy night
When the young preacher took the stage
To tell the ancient story
Of the child and the sage

The journey we partake
Is unique in all accord
But the grace that dwells among
Us can rest the bitter sword

He never promised you an apple orchard
But all his love he gives to you
