Darkness Fell

And so she woke up from a dream
That was beautiful and starry and oh so wild
It was all still clear in her eyes
And though her mind was foggy and blank
She wondered why her life couldn't be as lovely
It was time

There was this king he had no castle or throne oh no
But his horse was great and white
He rode alone and liked it that way
But when he met her he swore he would never leave her side

They rode across the land two lovers hand in hand
And no danger could come near
And when something made her cry
She'd look at him teary-eyed

And he would make her feel better
Oh so much better
So much better than before

And now this forest was their home it was a night time
And the right time for love in the dark
She placed her hand upon his chest and then all the rest just flowed
Makin' love down under an ancient far away night

It was so grand just holdin' someone's hand
And now safety came naturally oh yeah
It was so clear
That she would never ever have to fear

Oh tell me a story
Of magic and spiraling ships and stars in the night
Just whisper in my ears make it soft but make it clear
I want to hear every breath you say

And now this forest was their home it was a night time
And the right time for love in the dark
She placed his hands upon her chest and then all the rest just flowed
Makin' love down under an ancient far away night

But she woke up from the land tears falling in her hands
As she looked up askin' why
She laid back in her bed thoughts raising in her head
Why can't my life be beautiful she said

As she closed her eyes again
Just prayin' he'd return
But only darkness fell upon her
