Owned By The Night

I thought the train would never come

I thought the night would swallow us

And life would play a different drum

And fill the air with fire and lust

I thought the mist would bless the vines

And gently overpower rust

I thought our time would not suffice

I thought the night would swallow us

Body and soul

Way out of sight

I thought we’d be owned

Owned by the night

I thought the moon would put a spell

On the bleak waters of the lake

I thought the skies would turn to red

The stars would fall and the leaves would break

I thought the rain would shut all signs

And to new rims it would give birth

As our hands would intertwine

I thought I’d hear the psalms of earth

Body and soul

Way out of sight

I thought we’d be owned

Owned by the night

I thought the train would never come

I thought the night would swallow us

And life would play a different drum

I thought the night would swallow us.
