Interesting theory Bart.

I've just reread the lyrics and I'm still convinced it's Cathy singing to Heathcliffe - and a dead Heathcliffe at that.

Yeah you're right it was Cathy singing to Heathcliff, when Jimmy wrote this song he said he was "under the influence of Wuthering Heights". The song focuses on the power of love as a dark and gothic substance and how just one touch could bring all thoughts of love. Jimmy reverses the roles between Cathy and Heathcliff I believe and has said the songs like dancing with a dead body in the cold moonlight. As for Neverland, yeah I think Jimmy also included in some Neverland script of Wendy singing it to Peter, but there's been so many of those. Hopefully one fortunate day, a miracle will strike down from the Gods above and Neverland will actually grace a broadway stage. Also, this is not included in the new Wuthering Heights MTV movie, probably for the same reason as "Total Eclipse Of The Heart" being in "Dance Of The Vampires" as people laughed when they heard it cause it's a popular song.
