Here in the Darkness 

(D. Barrett / J. Onesto) 

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


Chorus: 

'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


Chorus


Bridge: 

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


Chorus
