It Was A Dark & Stormy Night Lyrics

It was a dark and stormy night last night bitter dark
Rain fell in torrents
stabbing its ghosts through the cold
and straight through our hearts
I've been waiting in halfhearted sleep
For a promise I half meant to keep
Just for hoping that hope still f lies
Wipe the sleep out of our sleeping eyes
Fog that is lifting the specter of dreams we once had
speaks into the night
Slumber is over
sunlight is streaming through
come into the light
I know
Hope has not forgotten me
I know
I'm waking from the longest dream
