Alela Diane Paloma
[Verse 1]
I woke up at the darkest hour
Every light upon the shoreline was out
I gazed out into the deep blue
As the thunderous waves roared
[Chorus]
Ooh, and in the black of night
I wouldn't be taken aback
If the water came up and swept us out to sea
Ooh, and in the black of night
I wouldn't be taken aback
If the sun gave up and never brought the day
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh
[Verse 2]
The heavy rain poured down
The sky electric with the boom and rumble
And, in nerves, I counted silently
Bеtween the sight and the sound
[Chorus]
Ooh, and in the black of night
I wouldn't bе taken aback
If the water came up and swept us out to sea
Ooh, and in the black of night
I wouldn't be taken aback
If the sun gave up and never brought the day
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh
[Verse 3]
And in the dimmest light of morning
I found a mourning dove
Paloma rode the wind to where she lay
Silent as a stone
[Chorus]
Ooh, and in the black of night
I wouldn't be taken aback
If the water came up and swept us out to sea
Ooh, and in the black of night
I wouldn't be taken aback
If the sun gave up and never brought the day
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh
