Concrete Blonde - Darkening Of The Light Lyrics

Like a ghost-is the curtain
in the white light of the morning-
dancing in the morning
are you there-are you there?
and a shadow-like a sadness
falling all across the garden
dancing in the garden
are you there, are you there?

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

and the leaves at my feet
whisper sounds so familiar
whisper so familiar-
are you there? are you there?

(Chorus)

where the clouds pull apart
and the moon changes faces
in the quiet secret places
are you there? are you there?
