Darkness Fell

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 couldn't be as lovely It was time There was this king, he had no castle or throne, oh, no But his horse was great and white He rode alone and 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 a 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 Makin' love down under an ancient far away night It was so grand Just holdin' someone's hand And now safety came naturally, oh, yeah It was so clear That she would never ever have to fear Oh, tell me a story of magic and spiraling ships and stars in the night Just whisper in my ears Make it soft but make it clear I want to hear every breath you say And now, this forest was their home It was a night time And the right time for love in the dark She placed his hands upon her chest And then, all the rest just flowed Makin' love down under an ancient far away night But she woke up from the land Tears falling in her hands As she looked up, askin' why She laid back in her bed Thoughts raising in her head "Why can't my life be beautiful?", she said As she closed her eyes again Just prayin' he'd return But only darkness fell upon her
