Out of the night comes a timeless thing
Calm in simplicity
Whisper soft a seductive voice
Meant for the human ear
Down, down, down, I'm gonna take you down
That's when the dying calls If I look in the dark of the world
If I lose I don't mind
That's when the dying calls Down through the ages from the dawn of time
Roam through the world of dreams
Up from the black of the Mississippi mud
Callin' out to everythin'
Down, down, down, I'm gonna bring you down
That's when the dying calls If I play in the dark of the world
If I lose I don't mind
When the dying calls
When the dying calls When the dying calls If I play in the dark of this world
And if I lose I don't mind
That's when the dying calls
When the dying calls
When the dying calls
When the dying calls Up from the black of night
When the dying calls
Down through the dawn of time
When the dying calls If I play in the dark of the world
And if I lose I don't mind
That's when the dying calls
