Lyrics:
a note from my Rosie's hand
And it read I'd rather die than ever hurt you but I'm in love with that tall dark man
So now I walk alone down by the river
I was sitting by the phone
I was waiting all alone
Baby by myself I sit and wait and wonder about you
It's a dark and dreary night
Seems like
to the rest of the world
Obscured, as it was, by great clouds
Here they played out their peaceful lives
Innocent of the litany of excessive violence that was
What a stormy night, when I met the pony,
It was so dark, that I could hardly see,
It smelled so sweet, you know who and Joanie,
So many
to the rest of the world
Obscured, as it was, by great clouds
Here they played out their peaceful lives
Innocent of the litany of excessive violence that was
I was trained in Arizona
In a secret desert camp
Where we did night manoeuvres
Without a lighted lamp
I've got an old worn Trilby hat
That
of the dark was suddenly heard
Welcome to the home by the sea
Coming out of the woodwork
Through the open door
Pushing from above and below
Shadows but
[Chorus]
It was there in the dark of that cold and watery night. They watched for the you-boats and they waited for a fight.
Then a whine and a rock
to ramble through the park
Shadowboxing in the dark
Then you came and lit a spark
Burnin' desire
House on fire
I never made love by lantern-shine
I
to ramble through the park
Shadowboxing in the dark
Then you came and lit a spark
Burnin' desire
House on fire
I never made love by lantern-shine
I
When they went to bed that night, no one would have believed
That in the morning light would not be there
The dark hung heavy on the air like
a businessman in the Holy Land as a sidewalk souvenir shop
I bought a little Bible since I'd hardly stopped
And it was in Paris France somehow by chance that
Some people wanna kill their sorrows
Some people wanna fit in with the popular
That was my problem
I was in the dark room
Loud tunes, looking to make
She says nobody wants to believe
You're the same as everyone
What makes me unique?
My dark life
There was a kink in the world
Sent that statue
She says nobody wants to believe
You're the same as everyone.
What makes me unique?
My dark life
There was a kink in the world
Sent that statue
They sat together in the park as the evening sky grew dark
She looked at him he felt a spark tingle to his bones
It was when he felt alone and wished
Fading memories drive me insane
Haunted by the dreams we used to share
Fragments of a past that's hanging there
Orchestral swells they rise and fall
In my

And that was the moment I regret
"Well now boy, reach for the sky"
Y'all said, "but I don't understand, sir"
afar
Now Joseph and his wife Mary
Come to Bethlehem that night
Then find no place to born the child
Not a single room was in sight
Hark now hear
Then he reached out in his pocket
And that was the moment I regret
"Well now boy, reach for the sky"
Y'all said, "but I don't understand, sir"
Twas on one dark and stormy night
The snow was on the ground
The sailor boy was at his post
His ship was outward bound
His sweetheart standing
to be so mistaken
By different shades of faces
Then Whit' told me, "A woman is woman, love the creation"
It all came from God, then you was my
that I made love to
It was in a park
In the lower pleasure gardens in Bournemouth
In summer just after dark
My mind was reeling: Oh what a feeling.
By then they were surrounded,
by dawn they all were dead
I heard this from
the old Trans Am,
up the road ahead
