Found that man reported missing,
|
He wandered in his home.
|
It don't seem to bad if you consider
|
Just what he's been through.
|
|
Seems he met up with a gang of thieves,
|
Who mistook him for a man of means,
|
They locked him up then found he had no money,
|
So they let him go again.
|
Now he's back at home and happy
|
Just to see the kids.
|
|
I wish that I could really tell you
|
All the things that happened to me
|
And all that I have seen.
|
A world full of people their hearts full of joy,
|
Cities of light with no fear of war,
|
And thousands of creatures with happier lives,
|
And dreams of a future with meaning and no need to hide.
|
|
Oh, keep it dark.
|
|
It seems strange to have to lie,
|
About a world so bright.
|
And tell instead a made-up story,
|
From the world of night.
|
|
I wish, that I could really tell you,
|
All the things that happened to me
|
And all that I have seen,
|
A world full of people their hearts full of joy,
|
Cities of light with no fear of war,
|
And thousands of creatures with happier lives,
|
And dreams of a future with meaning and no need to lie,
|
No need to hate,
|
No need to hide.
|
|
Oh, keep it dark.
