When we woke up all the lights were out
The window open, the night sinking to the ground
And you whispered a poem, from a song I once knew
That helped me forget, how it hurts to know you
So sing me this song as if it were right
Lead me into dark until its darker than night
I'll take you by hand though I know that you'll fold
But I'll never let go of what I promised to hold
We were skipping stones on our tears and our dreams
And watching them sink, down into the deep
Without a sound, gently drift out of reach
Become more of the sea, and less you and me
So sing me this song as if it were right
Lead me into dark until its darker than night
I'll take you by hand though I know that you'll fold
But I'll never let go of what I promised to hold
