About

The album name is actually called “Elephant Mountain”, not “The Avalon Ballroom” . It was composed mostly in 1968, and released in 1969. I’m told that Jesse Colin Young wrote the song for the GIs in Viet Nam at the time, trying to get some sleep at night.

Darkness, Darkness Lyrics

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 my yearning
For the things I cannot be
Keep my mind from constant turning
Toward the things I cannot see now
Things I cannot see now
Things I cannot see

Darkness, darkness
Long and lonesome
Ease the day that brings me pain
I have felt the edge of sadness
I have known the depth of fear
Darkness, darkness, be my blanket
Cover me with the endless night
Take away, take away the pain of knowing
Fill the emptiness of right now
Emptiness of right now, now, now
Emptiness of ri-ight now

Darkness, darkness, be my pillow
Take my hand, and let me sleep
In the coolness of your shadow
In the silence, the silence of your deep
Darkness, darkness, be my blanket
Cover me with the endless night
Take away, take away the pain of knowing
Fill the emptiness of right now
Emptiness of right now now now
Emptiness of right....
Oh yeah Oh yeah
Emptiness, emptiness
Oh yeah
