Dark as the Black
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
There's a crack in the ground from Waterloo all the way to Arizona
I can see from the fire escape outside that helped me get to know you
What was it like when I was in your life?
Did my touch feel the same as your touch it felt so good to me
It felt so good to me
One world, one love
Means nothing if you're just pretending
One world, one love
There's nothing to good intentions
Dark as the black in the cracks in the ground
There's a crack in the ground from Tennessee all the way to Caledonia
I can see by the way the silence rings and echoes in the corner
How many times you wanted to cry
But you kept it inside
Now the silence echoes deafening
It's much too loud for me
One world, one love
Means nothing if you're just pretending
One world, one love
There's nothing to good intentions
Dark as the black in the cracks in the ground
There's a crack in the ground from Old New York all the way to Minnesota
I can see by the way ten thousand lakes are screaming for more water
Give us some hope, we haven't got enough
To keep ourselves filled up, when you drink us empty, drink us dry, and ask us why we're dry
One world, one love
Means nothing if you're just pretending
One world, one love
There's nothing to good intentions
One world, one love
Means nothing if you're just pretending
To do your part
There's nothing to good intentions
Dark as the black in the cracks in the ground
Dark as the black in the cracks in the
Dark as the black in the cracks in the ground
