lyrics

Day began in the darkest hour of the night
But we were soon long
And far away from where we had started out at first light
The weak and the strong
And we closed our eyes to the raging skies
And tears of thunder rain
We closed our eyes to the raging skies
And tears of thunder rain

But soon the distance we’d gained
Began to mean less for some had remained
Among the trees alone and afraid
Unable to move we left them dismayed
And we knew the emptiness of a day without sunlight
And we knew the emptiness of a day without sunlight

Now as never before the wisdom of hope
Can lead us no more our time has come
The night has begun
The shadows will rise but never the sun
And we know the emptiness of a day without sunlight
And we know the emptiness of a day without sunlight
