Lyrics
Darkness Takes Over
In love with you from the beginning of time
You were a flower and me the sunshine
Through centuries I watched you grow
And now it's time to let you go?
Darkness slipped in and cast a doubt
On the one you said you couldn't live without
Now I'm not welcome in your home
Where all of our beautiful seeds had grown
chorus:
Shadows dance in shimmering light
Until darkness takes over the night
Where love once shined all things grew
You closed the blinds so the sun couldn't get through
I wish for you only the best
But from where I sit you seem depressed
I think you should re-think your stance
Open the blinds let the sunlight dance
Like back when you basked in it's rays
It's warmth and closeness you highly praised
chorus:
Shadows dance in shimmering light
Until darkness takes over the night
Where love once shined all things grew
You closed the blinds so the sun couldn't get through
I wish for you all the best
But from where I sit you seem depressed
To shine on earth through every season
You made my time here you were my reason
Without you to flourish and reflect the sun
Darkness takes over the moon has won
The moon is awesome in many ways
But remember nothing grows in the shade
