Darkness Darkness

Robert Plant · Dreamland [2002]

Darkness Darkness, be my pillow

take my head and let me sleep

in the coolness of your shadow

in the silence of your deep



Darkness Darkness, hide my yearnin'

for the things I can not see

keep my mind from constant turnin'

to the things I can not be



Darkness Darkness, be my blanket

cover me with the endless night

take away, oh, this pain of knowing

fill this emptyness with light

emptyness with light now



Darkness, darkness, long and lonesome

is the day that brings me here

I have felt the edge of sadness

I have known the depths of fear



Darkness Darkness, be my blanket

cover me with the endless night

take away, oh, this pain of knowing

fill this emptyness with light now

emptyness with light now

...now...



Darkness Darkness, be my blanket

cover me with the endless night

take away, oh, this pain of knowing

fill this emptyness with light now

oh,with light now



Darkness Darkness, be my pillow

take my head and let me sleep

in the coolness of your shadow

in the silence of your deep

in the silence of your deep

in the.... oh ...oh...



[ad lib: oh yeah, in the summer baby, c'mon c'mon c'mon baby
