Dark Nights

[Gerry]

Wind whistles and the trees tremble, with fear
Sunshine gone into hiding, knowing what is to come
Blackness of the sky cloaks the heavy clouds
Concealing their evil mission to wreck
Twelve hours of torture lay ahead
Candles at the ready as the electric light flickers
Preparations made, hoping not to be tested
Engineers on standby waiting for the call
Speeding drivers unaware of what's round the bend
The hospital wait for their delivery
More carnage on the roads tonight
Another home destroyed in the dark night
Their darkest night, darkest darkest night.
