Janis Ian

Dancing With The Dark
Take these burdens from my heart Lay them down beside the sea They are tearing me apart Let them drift away from me Take this sorrow from my soul I have prayed to find some rest It's a weight I cannot hold It lays heavy on my breast This long night cannot last forever This long night, sorrow shields the stars Give me light Illuminate the darkness in my heart Dancing with the dark I'm dancing with the dark Take these tears that blind my eyes I have lived too long in shadows Unbind these shuttered skies My horizons are too narrow Take my weariness and sorrow Take the troubles I have borrowed They will all be here tomorrow This long night cannot last forever This long night, sorrow shields the stars Give me light Illuminate the secrets of my heart I'm dancing with the dark Dancing with the dark Aus Songtexte Mania
