Intro verse 1 Engine's turning, but there ain't no spark Owls a-hooting, but the dog won't bark No more greetings from the meadowlark Deep in the darkest night verse 2 I tried to warn you, but you'd gone too far The cut was serious, but it left no scar Now you're waving from a distant star Deep in the darkest night You climbed your ladder while the sun shone bright Now you're a memory, never out of sight A shining light Deep in the darkest night Instrumental: verse 3 You were youngest, but you stepped out first You were gifted, but the gift was cursed Your gave your good heart 'til your good heart burst Deep in the darkest night verse 4 You spoke your word and your word was trust But a will of iron can so easily rust Ashes to ashes, dust to dust Deep in the darkest night___ Lead Break Bridge I know you're watching and I wish you well When next I see you, only time will tell When you see me coming, give that rebel yell Deep in the darkest night
