With all our goals and destinations
Everything must be this way 
Vague are hopes that try our patience 
Listen now to what I say 

Oh, lie down in darkness 
I want you next to me 
Oh, lie down in darkness 
Here with me 

All our trials and tribulations
Will it ever make much sense 
All these years, they disappear 
They leave me here without defense 

Oh, lie down in darkness 
I want you next to me 
Oh, lie down in darkness 
Here with me
