If I be Dead or if I be Dark

If I be Dead or if I be Dark

If I be dead or if I be dark
Bury me beneath the midnight lark
Come and pull me from the grave
Choose my sad soul to be saved
Hold me, kiss me, stay with me
Promise with me you’ll always be
Take me away into the dead of night
Escape before the morning light
Run forever from the sun
Intertwine our love so it can’t be undone.
