Darkness Darkness

(Levinger)

Darkness, darkness

Be my pillow

Take me in and let me sleep

In the coolness of the shadow

In the silence of the deep

Darkness, darkness

Hide my yearning for the things that cannot be

Keep my mind from constant turning

Towards the thing that cannot see

Thing that cannot see,

Thing that cannot see.

Darkness, darkness

Long and lonesome is the day that brings me everything

I have felt the edge of sorrow,

I have known the depth of fear.

Darkness, darkness

Be my blanket

Trouble me with your endless night,

Take away, take away, take away the pain of knowing

Fill the emptiness with bright

Emptiness with bright,

Emptiness with bright

Darkness, darkness

Be my blanket

Take me in and cover me

Take away, take away, take away the pain of knowing

Fill the emptiness with bright,

Emptiness with bright,

Emptiness with bright

Emptiness, loneliness

Take away

Emptiness, loneliness

Take away

My sorrow
