Heart of Darkness - Rick Miller

The daylight now is gone

A darkened cloud where it shone

I feel your ghost on the breeze

A gentle dream I still need

A chill runs down my spine

The moon tells me that it’s time

It’s only now that I see

A heart of darkness for me

I wait for the touch of the night

I write, pen in hand by dim candlelight

I wait for the cut of the knife

It helps turn the wrong into right

I reach for your touch in the night

It’s only now that I see

A heart of darkness for me
