Sliding into darkness, searching for a part of me
Under dark eyelids, there is another I don’t recognise
Playing music underground, reaching above 
       there is a raggedy man searching
Evening rain, stepping out to a face full of tears
Running, slipping, searching for that spark
Intelligence, a dirty word against the graffiti painted walls
Night, a lighter shade of darkness, can I get back there?
Tell my story, in words they will believe
Energise the spark, bring back the shine
Let the Gods of love call my name
Love that holds the spark in gentle hands
Inside the world of dreaming there's a happy ending
Grateful lovers will agree with me
Every touch remembered, a story to tell
Never let the spark go out, keep the darkness away
Catch me before I fall out of love
Ending are lonely, never a happy place to be…
