lyrics

Walking round the neighborhood after dark
I cut across the floodlit park
To find a spot beneath the shadow of the trees
Where I can take my ease
Suddenly all the lights go out
The darkness is so profound
Can’t even see the hand in front of my face
The whole world devoid of sound
Then slowly the darkness gets used to my eyes
And things slowly resolve into things I recognize
And I can see again
As if a spell was broken
As if I’d just awoken
The veil lifted from my mind
My eyes were opened
To the wonder of the stars
To the chaos of the universe
And the promise of love
Later on I walk the quiet streets
No-one else around
Last bus ghosts by into the night
Heading back into town
Tides out when I get down the beach
Leave footprints in the sand
Moon rides high over a silvery sea
So happy to see you my friend
