Dark Days

Story Behind The Song

I remember lying in a bunk on a converted Russian ship in the middle of the Caspian sea and this song coming to me with a storm coming. It was somewhere I really didn't want to be, I was going though problems at home and my relationship to my girlfriend of 5 years was on shaky foundations. They were indeed Dark Days and I had nowhere to go, only inside. I went in, and this song came out

Lyrics

Time cannot heal all wounds
Scars are left behind
Scars as deep as canyon walls
And pain that leaves us blind

The love that ran so deep in me
Now trickles off my skin
The light that burned within my soul
Just flickers in the wind

Doctor won?t heal me
I need someone to feel me
Someone to wake up to
Someone to make love to
Someone I can depend on
A love to get my hands on
To guide me through the dark days
Before I leave this world behind


There are no words to say
To tell you how I feel
And I have searched every line
I can?t believe its real

The love you felt so deep for me
How could you turn and leave
And the light that burned within our souls
Left to flicker in the wind

Doctor won?t heal me
I need someone to feel me
Someone to wake up to
Someone to make love to
Someone I can depend on
A love to get my hands on
To guide me through the dark days
Before I leave this world behind

Hey Doctor!
Gimmie something
I need light, I need love
Let me feel your
Arms around me
Shining down from above


Doctor won?t heal me
I need someone to feel me
Someone to wake up to
Someone to make love to
Someone I can depend on
Love to get my hands on
To guide me through the dark days

Doctor won?t heal me
I need someone to feel me
Someone to wake up to
Someone to make love to
Someone I can depend on
A love to get my hands on
To guide me through the dark days
Before I leave this world behind
