You may not see the end of it   But luckily she comes around   It isn't what she talks about   It's just the way she is      (...and she says)   Ooh darlin' don't you know   The darkness comes and the darkness goes   (she says)   Ooh babe why don't you let it go?   Happiness aint never how you think it should be so      I mystified the simple life   I covered up with consciousness   I saw myself and broke it down   'Til nothing more was left   She saw the symptoms right away   And spoke to me in poetry   "Sometimes the more you wonder why   The worse it seems to get"      (...and she says)   Ooh darlin' don't you know   The darkness comes and the darkness goes   (she says)   Ooh babe why don't you let it go?   Happiness aint never how you think it should be so   She runs away   She runs away...      And then you know there comes a time   You need her more than anything   You may believe yours are the wounds   That only she can heal   Then everything will turn around   And she becomes so serious   What she chose to offer you   Was all that you could have      (...and she says)   Ooh darlin' don't you know   The darkness comes and the darkness goes   (she says)   Ooh babe why don't you let it go?   Happiness aint never how you think it should be so   She runs away   She runs away   She runs away   She runs away
