Darkness, darkness, be my pillow |
|
Take my hand and let me sleep |
|
In the coolness of your shadow |
|
In the silence of your deep |
|
Darkness, darkness, long and lonesome |
|
Is the day that brings me here |
|
I have felt the edge of silence |
|
I have known the depths of fear |
|
Darkness, darkness, hide the yearning |
|
For the things that cannot be |
|
Keep my mind from constant turning |
|
Towards the things I cannot see |
|
Darkness, darkness, long and lonesome |
|
Is the day that brings me here |
|
I have felt the edge of silence |
|
I have known the depths of fear |
|
Darkness, darkness, be my blanket |
|
Cover me with the endless night |
|
Take away the pain of knowing |
|
Fill the emptiness of right |
|
Darkness, darkness, be my pillow |
|
Take my hand and let me sleep |
|
In the coolness of your shadow |
|
In the silence of your deep |
|
Darkness, darkness, hide the yearnings |
|
For the things that cannot be |
|
Keep my mind from constant turning |
|
Towards the things I cannot see |
|
Darkness, darkness, be my blanket |
|
Cover me with the endless night |
|
Take away the pain of knowing |
|
Fill the emptiness of right |
