Darkness, darkness, be my pillow
Take my head and let me sleep
In the colours of your shadow
In the silence of the deep

Darkness, darkness, hide my yearning
For the things that cannot be
Free my mind from constant yearning
T'ward the things I cannot see now
T'ward the things I cannot see

Darkness, darkness, [???]
Is the day that brings my heaven
I have passed the edge of sadness
Now I hide the depth of fear

Darkness, darkness, be my blanket
Cover me with еndless night
Take away the pain of knowing
Fill thе emptiness inside
Fill the emptiness inside

Darkness, darkness, be my pillow
Take my head and let me sleep
In the colours of your shadow
In the silence of the deep
Darkness, darkness, hide my yearning
For the things that cannot be
Free my mind from constant yearning
T'ward the things I cannot see
T'ward the things I cannot see
T'ward the things I cannot see
