01 Mar 07 - 11:13 AM (#1982800) Subject: Origins: In the darkness of the night From: Fidjit I have this song. Had it for years and years. Now who can tell me who wrote it? In the darkness of the night I sometime wonder was I right To leave you love, without a smile Without a word, when all the while It hurts inside to say goodbye As you bid for another try At loving me, And at pleasing me Allthough I tried to heed you still I fought a battle against your will To keep me and to make me stay Keeping bills and the seas at bay To make of me an older man Nothing, but an older man And just for you. That's what you tried to do So at the dawn of another day I feel an ache about the way I left you and I said goodbye In case we meet and want to try Again my love to build a wall To keep out evreything, but what our love could mean Oh! What our love could mean. So. In the darkness of the night I sometime wonder was I right To leave you love, without a smile Without a word, when all the while It hurts inside to say goodbye As you bid for another try At loving me, And at pleasing me. Anyone know who wrote this? Chas |

In the darkness of the night I sometimes wonder was I right To leave you love, without a smile Without a word, when all the while It hurt inside to say goodbye As you beg for another try At loving me, And pleasing me But though I tried to need you still I fought a battle 'gainst your will To tie me down and make me stay To keep the hills and seas at bay To make of me an only man A loving but a lonely man Meant just for you that's what you try to do And now within an empty day I feel an ache about the way I left you and I said goodbye In case we meet and want to try Again my love to build a wall To keep out ev'rything, but all our love could mean Oh! What our love could mean. So in the darkness of the night I sometimes wonder was I right To leave you love, without a smile Without a word, when all the while It hurt inside to say goodbye As you begged for another try At loving me and pleasing me. |
