Lyrics

Darkness, darkness, be my pillow
Take my head, let me sleep
In the coolness of your shadow
In the silence of your deep
Darkness, darkness, hide the yearning
For the things that cannot be
Keep my mind from constant turning
Toward the things I cannot be now
Toward the things I cannot see now
Darkness, darkness, long and lonesome
Is the day that brings me here
I have felt the edge of silence
And I have known the depths of fear
Darkness, darkness, be my blanket
Cover me with endless night
Take away, take away this sense of longing
And fill the emptiness so bright now
Fill the emptiness of right now
Darkness, darkness, be my pillow
Take my head and let me sleep
In the coolness of your shadow
In the silence of your deep
Darkness, darkness, hide the yearning
For the things that cannot be
Keep my mind from constant turning
Toward the things I cannot see now
Oh, the things I cannot see
Oh, cover me, cover me, cover me
Oh, darkness, darkness, darkness, darkness
Darkness, darkness, darkness, darkness, yeah
