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
