For Some We Loved - Dorothy Ashby

Midnight, lock all the doors

And turn out the lights

Feels like the end of the world

This sunday night

Theres not a sound

Outside the snows comin' down

Somehow i can’t seem to find

The quiet inside

My mind

The space in this room

Has turned on me

And all my fears

Have cornered me here

Me and my t.v.

screen

The volumes down

Blue lights are dancing around

And still

I can’t seem to find the quiet

Inside my mind

Daylight is climbing the walls

Cars start

Feet walk to halls

The world waits

And now I am safe

At least by the light of day

At least by the light of day
