"All of the hopeless cases traced from here back to the start
Love's got a million faces....but only one heart"

lyrics

HIDE ME IN THE DARKNESS words/music: bill mallonee
(admin. BMI 2015)

look at all of the diamonds...all of the rust
look at all of the boom...all of the bust
all of the vistas...of golden eternities...
it's just pullin' on boots...and rollin' up your sleeves

chorus:
hide me in the darkness.....of all that's lost & found
hide me in the darkness....there's sure plenty to go around
all of the hopeless cases...traced from here back to the start
Love's got a million faces....but only one heart

there's a few plaintive voices...'cross the pages of time
all the powers that be...hardly pay 'em any mind
all this searching the heavens...for an answer inside
all the words of the Lord...in an audible sigh

just look on the bright side...just tend to your homestead
just look on the dark side...plow's broke & the horses are dead
