The Dark Year

Charles David Sharp


The oneness and the sameness 
Of the thing it shall be nameless, evermore 
And I close the door 
Seasons changing, leaves are falling 
Something strange inside me calling for you 
It's got me feeling blue 
Sad songs all night long I melt into the dawn 
Sunshine never shone 
In the dark year, in the dark year 
Hear the voices, children screaming 
A lonely mother fights her demons alone 
And there's no one home 
Collecting dust there in the corner 
A heart left by a former owner grows cold 
And it's dying slow 
Sad songs all night long 
I melt into the dawn 
Sunshine never shone 
In the dark year, in the dark year 
The oneness and the sameness 
Of the thing it shall be nameless, evermore 
And I close the door 
Seasons changing, leaves are falling 
Something strange inside me calling for you 
It's got me feeling blue 
Sad songs all night long I melt into the dawn 
Sunshine never shone 
In the dark year, in the dark year 
Hear the voices, children screaming 
A lonely mother fights her demons alone 
And there's no one home 
Collecting dust there in the corner 
A heart left by a former owner grows cold 
And it's dying slow 
Sad songs all night long 
I melt into the dawn 
Sunshine never shone 
In the dark year, in the dark year
