"Dark Days" lyrics
Dark days ahead
But here's a ray of light to guide you
I will always be beside you
If you lose your head
Forget and let the darkness blind you
I will be there to remind you
Yes I'll be around
I'll stick around
Through all the clowns and the sounds of the towns that will pass us by
So baby don't cry
Please don't cry
'Cause I know it's so hard to say it
'Cause when the road is calling I will call on you
And when the night is falling I will dream of you
And when the road it never ends, I lie awake and pretend
Ooh, I'm home, home again
Dark days ahead
But here's a ray of light to guide you
I will always be beside you
If you lose your head
Give up your hopes and give up your dreams
Give up on life, no don't you give up on me
Not so easily
No I'm gonna be
Right there by your side, no no please don't hide from me
'Cause nevertheless, I come to confess that I was impressed from the moment that I met you
I was depressed, I was stressed, I was a mess and then you came and helped me reclaim my name and start anew
And even if I was to realize all my dreams, it would probably only be to fall apart at the seams
All my schemes would undo, all my strings would detune, melodies would be blue
'Cause here's the truth, I'm lost without you
May the road rise to meet you and providence greet you
I hope the best is yet to come and when this world is overrun
I'll be in your pocket, the picture in your locket will be this smiling face of mine
Forever 'til the end of time and sound
'Cause I'll be around
I'll stick around, yeah
Oh 'cause when the seas are rough and you've had enough
I'll keep the deep from drowning you
And when the lights are dim, the walls closing in
I'll be the shield surrounding you
Oh this life will lift you up and break you down
And bend your crown, I'll mend it for you
But don't be afraid to make mistakes
If your heart breaks, I'll fix it for you
I'll fix it for you
Dark days ahead
But here's a ray of light to guide you
I will always be beside you
If you lose your head
Forget and let the darkness blind you
I will be there to remind you
Yes I'll be around
I'll stick around
Through all the clowns and the sounds of the towns that will pass us by
So baby don't cry
Please don't cry
'Cause I know it's so hard to say it
But here's a ray of light to guide you
I will always be beside you
If you lose your head
Forget and let the darkness blind you
I will be there to remind you
Yes I'll be around
I'll stick around
Through all the clowns and the sounds of the towns that will pass us by
So baby don't cry
Please don't cry
'Cause I know it's so hard to say it
'Cause when the road is calling I will call on you
And when the night is falling I will dream of you
And when the road it never ends, I lie awake and pretend
Ooh, I'm home, home again
Dark days ahead
But here's a ray of light to guide you
I will always be beside you
If you lose your head
Give up your hopes and give up your dreams
Give up on life, no don't you give up on me
Not so easily
No I'm gonna be
Right there by your side, no no please don't hide from me
'Cause nevertheless, I come to confess that I was impressed from the moment that I met you
