The Gospel According To Darkness — текст песни (Jane Siberry)

I know there`s a place that you call your own
and you`re safe and warm and you feel like you`re home
and the peace of it and the faith involved
and you go to say...but there`s no need to explain it
still you try
and then you see
that it`s okay
you`re on your own

I see you lookin` around
at the people on the street
well, things aren`t what they seem
if you push them hard enough
you`ll find that most of them
do not feel worthy of love
now how did this come to be?

oh, my sweet sweet darlin`
yes?
look at me
you`re telling me you can`t pierce
the darkness into the light?
yes
can you see me?
no, I cant...
can you see the figure standing on your right?
nobody. it`s just darkness...
it`s just darkness...
come on, I know you understand.
I`m trying...

love, will you let us know when it`s time
when we can leave this darkness behind?

oh, my sweet sweet darlin`...
wait...
what? you know when you open up your eyes?
oh, I`m afraid there wont be anyone there
I`m beaming you all this light
wait.
something`s happening...
who is it?
I`m holding my sweet mama in my arms
is she dying?
no, I think she`s just been born
and she looks so... sweet...
and she looks so... hopeful
and she looks so... trusting
she doesn`t know how hard...

I know there`s a place
that you call your own
and you`re safe and warm
and you feel like you`re home

I see you lookin` around
at the people on the street
well, things aren`t what they seem
if you push them hard enough
you`ll find that most of them
do not feel worthy of love
now how did this come to be?

I know there`s a place that you call your own
