Lyrics
She left this mornin' while the rain was pouring down
she gave no warning, she made me feel just like a clown
I tried to stop her but the words got in the way
Baby please listen, I'm beggin' you to stay
I think I'm goin' into the dark night of the soul
I sat right down there, my head was in my hands
I couldn't figure out where is lays or where it stands
I feel so helpless, am I a boy or am I a man
I better hurry and try to make another plan
I don't want to go into, I don't wanna be a friend to
don't even want to begin to seethe dark night of the soul
solo
Gotta leave behind me every thing she said
gonna get up now and work on my head
dark night of the soul oh no not another
dark night of the soul
