Shafts of sunlight stealing in my room through the window-pane,
Look like spotlight pointing out the gloom and despair that it contains,
But I would not shut out the sunlight for darkness is no friend.
Shafts of moonlight lighting up the floor, nearly all bare boards,
Few pieces of carpet and nothing more, all I can afford,
But I would not shut out the moonlight for darkness is no friend.
It's so easy to shut your eyes to block out the things that you despise,
Just as easy for the dark of night to blot out thedaylight things that aren't right,
(2)
Shafts of sunlight stealing in my room through the window-pane,
Look like spotlight pointing out the gloom and despair that it contains,
But I would not shut out the sunlight for darkness is no friend.
