The Darkening Of The Light

Like a ghost (like a ghost)
Is the curtain (is the curtain)
In the white light of the morning.
Dancing (dancing)
In the morning (in the morning)
Are you there? Are you there?

And a shadow (and a shadow)
Like a sadness (like a sadness)
Falling across the garden
Dancing (dancing)
In the garden (in the garden)
Are you there? Are you there?

CHORUS:
Shine on friend. Goodnight.
Why, then, the darkening of the light?

And the leaves (and the leaves)
At my feet (at my feet )
Whisper sounds so familiar.
Whisper (whisper)
So familiar (so familiar)
Are you there? Are you there?

Where the clouds (where the clouds)
Pull apart (pull apart)
Where the moon changes faces
In the quiet (in the quiet)
Secret places (secret places)
Are you there? Are you there?

Shine on friend.
Goodnight.
Why, then, the darkening of the light?

Shine on friend.
Good night.
Why, then, the darkening of the light?
The darkening of the light.
The darkening of the light.
The darkening of the light.
