Darkness in Paradise

I'm standing here in silence This graceful place of peace Watching the shadows come closer The birds they sing no longer The winds they blow no more With fear of death I'm waiting for the night to fall The sun will set forever One after one the stars they die The rainbow has turned to black Darkness has fallen in paradise Love is lost in memories All beauty and all light Have vanished from the Garden of delight The Devil and his gift The heart he stole away But innocence was lost long ago The morning will come no more Our dreams are all gone Midnight has come to stay Darkness has fallen in paradise Oh father please forgive us Forgive us all our sins Please bring your light Again to lead our way But my prayers are not answered They fade out to die And so does the last gleam of hope The morning will come no more Our dreams are all gone Midnight has come to stay Darkness has fallen in paradise I know my death is near Far beyond my dreams My fate is waiting To show me the light... I believe Darkness has fallen in paradise Darkness has fallen
