Darkness, Darkness - Lisa Torban

Darkness darkness be my pillow

Take my hand 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

Towards the things I cannot see

Darkness darkness long and lonesome

Is the day that brings my happiness

I have found the edge of silence

I have known the depths of fear

Darkness darkness be my blanket

Cover me with the endless night

Take away the pain of knowing

Fill the emptiness of right

Darkness darkness hide my yearnings

For the things that cannot be

Keep my mind from constant turning

Towards the things I cannot see
