Songtext Darkness is a real place (with the choir of my dream) Ionnalee

Darkness is a real place (with the choir of my dream)

There are those who don't know darkness is a real place
Some live in its shadow dreaming of its embrace

But when it is standing by your bed, stroking your chin
It changes you forever, there is no second skin

Wish I could tell you nothing was in vain
That we all are winning
And now you're almost gone, except the pain
The pain keeps on living

With only songs to keep us hanging on
And the memories that you made but then forgot

There are things we long for but we never really do
We cling to them although they are a vision untrue

See the ocean green blue see our children growing tall
Standing in the ice cold shimmer of that waterfall

Wish I could tell you that it's all the same
That no one's a winner
And now you're drifting off this time the rain
Calls for a swimmer

With only songs to keep us hanging on
And the memories that you made but then forgot
The merciless fear in losing someone

With only songs to keep us hanging on
The longest farewell carries on
The greatness and the littleness of one

Oh the songs will keep us hanging on
Echoing in our minds in our homes
The good times and the bad will play on

Oh the songs will keep us hanging on
Memories fades but new days will come
We'll never be the same when you are gone

Oh the songs will keep us hanging on
Memories fades but new days will come
We'll never be the same when you are gone
