Johnny Cash — I See a Darkness

[Verse 1: Johnny Cash] Well, you're my friend And can you see Many times we've been out drinking Many times we've shared our thoughts But did you ever, ever notice The kind of thoughts I got? Well, you know I have a love A love for everyone I know And you know I have a drive To live, I won't let go But can you see its opposition Comes rising up sometimes? That its dreadful and position Comes blacking in my mind [Chorus: Johnny Cash & Will Oldham] And that I see a darkness And that I see a darkness And that I see a darkness And that I see a darkness Did you know how much I love you? Is a hope that somehow you Can save me from this darkness [Verse 2: Johnny Cash] Well, I hope that someday, buddy We have peace in our lives Together or apart Alone or with our wives And we can stop our whoring And pull the smiles inside And light it up forever And never go to sleep My best unbeaten brother This isn't all I see [Chorus: Johnny Cash & Will Oldham] Oh no, I see a darkness Oh no, I see a darkness Oh no, I see a darkness Oh no, I see a darkness Did you know how much I love you? Is a hope that somehow you Can save me from this darkness
