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 spiralling 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'd 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 asking 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
