Found that man
reported missing
He wandered
in his home
It don't seem too bad
if you consider
just what he's
been through
Seems he met up
with a gang of thieves
who mistook him for
a man of means
They locked him up
then found he had
no money
So they let him
go again
Now he's back at
home and happy
just to see the kids
I wish that I could
really tell you
All the things that
happened to me
And all that
I have seen
A world full of people
their hearts full of joy
Cities of light with
no fear of war
And thousands of
creatures with
happier lives
And dreams of a future
with meaning and
no need to hide
Oh, keep it dark
It seems strange
to have to lie
About a world
so bright
And tell instead a
made-up story
from the
world of night
I wish, that I could
really tell you
All the things that
happened to me
And all that
I have seen
A world full of people
their hearts full of joy
Cities of light with
no fear of war
And thousands
of creatures with
happier lives
And dreams of a future
with meaning and
no need to lie
No need to hate
No need to hide
Oh, keep it dark
