Had a dream again somebody help me
Take his image from my mind
\'Cause someone safe sleeps next to me
But it\'s another face that\'s all I see
It\'s a face that I remember I should never have set free

\'Cause here in the darkness is where I am running
Here in the darkness is where I belong
Here in the darkness I find all my comfort
Here in the darkness is where my lover\'s from

My mind goes out while I\'m sleeping
Takes me to a place that I don\'t belong
It takes me from life\'s simple charms
To another who all I did was harm
It\'s a wanting and an aching
For what might have been

Darkness come take me
Don\'t let him wake me
Darkness don\'t leave me alone
And I know he\'s waiting
Yes I know he\'s waiting
I just know he\'s waiting
I just shut my eyes shut my eyes

It\'s been years now since I\'ve seen him
I did not leave it in the best of ways
So what\'s this that keeps haunting me
I hear he\'s happy as can be
Maybe I know he\'s happy,
\'Cause he\'s happy without me
