Lyrics

I was long in a dream, I could not get loose I'll tell you of it, although it's little use To tell a dream, when dreaming is all you ever do Things were not so good, I can't make light of it My poor soul, it was having a long dark night of it It was a long night, a week, maybe a year Maybe a long dark night is coming down Maybe a long dark night is coming down Through the door of my dream burst No zombie, no ogre, no devil there But a flying man with long trailing hair Who perched on the iron rail of my bed O Lord, combing His long white hair and saying my name How could He know, when I did not even know my name? Maybe a long dark night is coming down Maybe a long dark night, my precious one Maybe a long dark night rolling around my eyes O Lord The man who took me to be from elsewhere When I inhabited the earthly sphere lent down and struck me With His long trailing hair Maybe a long dark night is coming down Maybe a long dark night, my precious one Maybe a long dark night rolling around my head O Lord
