| Darkness, you are gentle when you kiss me
|
| You lure me out like a dog before you whip me
|
| Every night and morning we’ve been lovers
|
| Darkness, you are soft when you lie to me
|
| I believe your sadness and your comfort
|
| A sensitive liar to be my lover
|
| Darkness you are good to make me give up
|
| To cast my hopes like stones into the sea
|
| You’ve bound my arms tightly
|
| And told me to lie face down
|
| Try not to breathe too deeply, hope for morning…
|
| No one will find us sleeping
|
| There’s no light, no shadow here
|
| Reach down and pull me up to the brightest heaven!
|
| Darkness you are good to make me give up
|
| To cast my hopes like stones into the sea |
