Darkness Fell on Me

 

The dream I dreamed
you could not dream.
You could not see;
darkness fell on me.

​

The love I gave
you could not save.
You could not see;
darkness fell on me.

​

Now my life is through.
Where I once saw you
smiling, now you're gone,
and my days are all wrong.

​

So speaks the truth
of my vanished youth,
the ghost of what was me,
the shade of what could be,

​

and the love you gave
I could not save.
I could not see;
darkness fell on me.
