Lady of Darkness - written by Colin Walker

LADY OF DARKNESS (By Colin Walker)
Stockton musician & poet Colin Walker - formerly of The Lovehearts - passed last night. This is for his son Tommy and family. Colin wrote this in 1983 and played keyboards. I played guitar / vocals and Steve Gillgallon bass. He was co-organiser of the Castalians poetry sessions at the Dovecot Arts Centre.
Lyrics
Walking along a lonely shore
Lapped by waters of illusion
out of the mist she came to me
The timeless daughter of the ocean.

Where she came from, I don't know
Like magic out of nowhere
Here eyes glittered like diamonds
The moon shone in her hair.

Chorus -
Lady of Darkness
With Stars in her eyes
She can never love you
So don't believe her lies.
Lady of Darkness
You'll never find the key
To unlock her secrets
She belongs to the sea.

In silence we made love
Then she stood and took my hand
At midnight she said goodbye
and left me alone up on the sand.

At night I return to the shore
hoping to find her waiting there
but I'm certain deep in my heart
we'll never meet again this way.

Coda -

LADY OF DARKNESS

SHE CAN NEVER LOVE YOU

LADY OF DARKNESS

TO UNLOCK HER SECRETS.
