A Night Tone
She never comes where I am,
I miss her if she does.
In the darkness the clouds race.
The moon makes for shadow.
She never comes where I am,
Would want her if I could.
The winds cold, my hearts bare.
And the night sets the tone.
She never comes where I am,
And I’ve searched most my life.
She’s out there, she’s calling.
I want to bring her home.
She never comes where I am,
Sitting alone, in the darkness,
As cold soaks my bone.
Hears the wind play, feels her soul say,
“He never comes where I am,
Sitting alone, in the darkness,
Where the winds cold, and my hearts bare.”
And the night sets the tone.
