I just want to thank you For the way you understand And the way that you have touched me Though you never held my hand I can see a bright light shining Through the darkness of my life Even though I have been cut By a sharp unkindly wife There are days and they’re a plenty When I do not want to rise To see the sun there shining bright Nor the blueness of the sky To suffer happy people Is difficult for me Cos yesterday I was one Now I am so empty The sound of laughter left me Hope it’s not gone for good As maybe one day I will meet Someone that I should Be happy with to spend my days And through my nights as well To rescue me from this darkness That I call my living hell I think that you have been there And maybe you still are Walking through the graveyard To a place that is so far Away it takes a long time To reach its happy gate I hope that we can get there Before it is too late
