Lonely is the night
Lonely the days
Aint nothin' been right
Since you been took away
Since you been took away
Ain't nothing the same
Everything's been wrong wrong wrong
Since you done gone away
He fell into a river of darkness
And darkness pushed the boat
He fell into the river of darkness
And darkness took all hope
The river is deep
The river is cold
Too late for sleep
For this drowning soul
Lonely is the night
Helpless the days
Nothin's been right
Since you been took away
Lonely is the night
Helpless the days
Nothin's been right
Since you been put away
