I want to be with you in the darkness
In the half moon's blue light
Let me carry your burdens for a while
Let me soften the lines around your smile
I'm not saying I want to be there with you always
Cause honey, you know there ain't no such thing
But I want to be with you in the darkness
Ain't no other way to see a wild thing
And I am selfish and impatient still
I like to call out alone to the whippoorwill
If I am a lotus-eater
If I drank flower water and can;;t go home
If I leave you lying on the couch
Soaking in the blue light bath alone
I am reminding myself how to get up
Get up, get up, get up
But I want to be with you in the darkness
Tonight I want to be with you in the darkness
Tonight I want to be with you in the darkness
