Darkling Days Lyrics by Cowboy Junkies

Darkling Days Lyrics

    The beautiful is not chosen.
    The chosen becomes beautiful.
    The beautiful is not chosen.
    The chosen becomes beautiful.

    Please do not forsake me now,
    Sparkling gone
    With darkling says
    I drift at times I know it's true
    But I always drift on back to you.

    The beautiful is not chosen.
    The chosen becomes beautiful.

    I have never tired of
    Manna falling from above
    When conscious thought
    Meets careless heart
    And two lost souls find one fresh start.

    Lie me upon the earth
    Feel it's curve beneath our spines,
    Soon we'll follow it around,
    One lost soul
    Finally found.

    The beautiful is not chosen.
    The chosen becomes beautiful.

    These are known as darkling days
    Rhyming schemes gone askew
    Crackling gifts of light and air,
    Exploding words,
    Ours to share.

    The beautiful is not chosen.
    The chosen becomes beautiful.
