Darkness Fell Lyrics

And so she woke up from a dream
That was beautiful and starry and oh so wild
It was all still clear in her eyes
And though her mind was foggy and blank
She wondered why her life coudn't be as lovely
It was time
There was this king, He had no castle or throne
But his horse was great and white
He rode alone and he liked it that way
But when he met her, he swore
He would never leave her side...

They rode across the land
Two lovers hand in hand
And no danger could come near
And when something made her cry
She'd look at him teary eyed
And he would make her feel better...

Oh... so much better... so much better than before...

And now this forest was their home
It was the night time, and the right time for love
In the dark
She placed her hand upon his chest
And then all the rest just flowed
Making love down under an ancient far away time...

It was so grand
Just holding someone's hand
And so safety came naturally... oh yeah...
It was so clear that she would never ever have to fear...

(Guitar Solo)

Oh, tell me a story
Of magic, and spiralling ships and stars in the sky
Just whisper in my ear
Make it soft and make it clear
I wanna hear every breathe you say
And now this forest was their home
It was the night time and the right time for love
In the dark
He placed his hand upon her breast
And then all the rest just flowed
Making love down under an ancient far away time...

And she woke up from the land
Tears fallin in her hand as she looked up askin why
She laid back in her bed, thoughts raisin in her head
"Why can't my life be beautiful?", she said
And she closed her eyes again, just prayin' he'd return
But only darkness fell upon her...
