"Our Darkness"


When evening shadows fade
I turn to my true love
She has the strength to say
The words that I cannot

In darkness, our darkness
So heartless, this darkness

I'm lost here in the grey
I wait for your returning
I watch the firelight play
Flames flicker with my yearning

For darkness, our darkness
So heartfelt, this darkness

Through streets and avenues
Will you come back to your lover?
The place for me and you
Is here with no other

In darkness, our darkness
So hearfellt, this darkness

My arms they open up for you
And where they fall it cuts the root
We talk of understanding
And talk of love

When evening shadows change
I turn back to my true love
She has the strength to say
The words that I cannot

In darkness, our darkness
So heartfelt, our darkness
So heartless, this darkness
Our darnkess, in darkness

We talk of love
