The day has provided our needs
And the day freely gives us it's heat
The day rests and comes to an end
And we embrace the cold night as a friend

Under the Cover of Darkness
We act as if the "light" won't return
(When will it, when will it return?)
And the stars high above us
They stay in the sky to watch us learn
And now we slowly learn
And now we slowly learn
From the forgiving day
From the forgiving day

The day picks us up again
And the day forgives and it mends
The day always breaks through the trends
And the day always asks us to start again

Under the Cover of Darkness
We act as if the "light" won't return
(When will it, when will it return?)
And the stars high above us
They stay in the sky and watch us learn
And now we slowly learn

From the forgiving day
