Happiness hit her like a train on a track Coming towards her, stuck still no turning back She hit around corners and she hit under beds She killed it with kisses and from it she fled In every bubble she sank with her drink And wasted away down the kitchen sink The dark days are over, the dark days are done The horses are coming, so you better run Run fast for your mother, run fast for your father Run for your children, for your sisters and your brothers Leave all your loving, your loving behind You can carry it with you if you wanna survive The dark days are over, the dark days are done Can you hear the horses? Here they come And I never wanted anything from you Except everything you had and what was left after that Let you out Happiness hit her like a bullet in the back Forevermore, parade high By someone who should know better than that The dark days are over, the dark days are done Can you hear the horses? Cause here they come Run fast for your mother, run fast for your father Run for your children, for your sisters and your brothers Leave all your loving, your loving behind You can carry it with you if you wanna survive The dark days are over, the dark days are done Can you hear the horses? Cause here they come The dark days are over, the dark days are done Here they come Here they come
