It was just a moment, a moment of passion
Like a mountain stream, crystalline and clean
Tumbling and crashing
It was something special, few will ever know
Something out of line, standing out of time
A flower in the snow
He was just a wanderer on his way to nowhere
Like a bird in flight, passing in the night
He didn't have a care
And she came to him in darkness and gave it all away
All the years of waiting, shyly hesitating
She stayed 'til day
And it was just a moment, a moment of passion
Like a mountain stream, crystalline and clean
Tumbling and crashing
And it was something special, few will ever know
Something out of line, standing out of time
A flower in the snow
But the wanderer left her and travelled on his way
Whistling a tune for the man in the moon
Far away
And she lit a candle and left it in the window
Let the light burn 'cause lovers never learn
How to let go
When it was just a moment, a moment of passion
Like a mountain stream, crystalline and clean
Tumbling and crashing
It was something special, few will ever know
Something out of line, standing out of time
A flower in the snow
A flower in the snow
