Down by the dark river
Wrapped in the night
You spoke so softly
In the pale moonlight
Told me your secrets
Through sunken eyes
Then lifted me out of the firing line

Into the storm coming now
Do you feel the rain falling down
Wash the tears away
Till love remains
And the blood in these veins will call your name
So when the darkness falls
We both can stand tall
I want to lie in your arms again
Don't wish it all away
Don't wish it all away

Now as the tides turning
The waters rise
No crown of thorns will make you king tonight

Theres a storm coming now
Do you feel the rain falling down
Wash the tears away
Till love remains
And the blood in these veins will call your name
So when the darkness falls
We both can stand tall
Until your light shines again

Knelt by the dark river
Your at my side
Wash the tears away
Till love remains
And the blood in these veins will call your name
So when the darkness falls
We both can stand tall
I want to lie in your arms again
