This rain on my winded pen
And trouble inside my heart
Shattered dreams
and broken yesterdays
From a life that's torn apart
What used to work for me before
Just don't do it no more
And I can't find no mercy
In the darkness of this night
From this dream,
won't you wake me?
Cause I'm crying deep inside
I need your tenderness
To help me find this emptiness
But I can't find no mercy
Till you take me to the light
Take me to the light, take me to the light
Gotta buy a one -way ticket
Gotta leave this lonely place
Cause the broken man you
see standing here
Needs the sunshine of your grace
There's a higher road waiting for me,
and that's where I want to be
And I can't find no mercy,
in the darkness of this night
Can't find it, can't find it, oh
From this dream won't you wake me,
cause I'm crying deep inside
I need your tenderness to help
me find this emptiness
But I can't find no mercy
Can you take me to the light?
Take me to the light
Take me to the light
There's a higher road waiting for me
And that's where I want to be
And I can't find no mercy
In the darkness of this night
I can't find a note from this dream,
won't you wake me?
Cause I'm crying deep inside, yes I am
I need your tenderness to
help me light this emptiness
But I can't find no mercy till
you take me to the light
Take me to the light,
take me to the light
And I can't find no mercy
In the darkness of this night
Can't find it, can't find it
Oh, from this dream won't
you wake me?
Cause I'm crying deep inside
Crying, crying
Oh, I can't find no mercy
In the darkness of this night
I can't find, I can't find
No, no, no mercy
