Heart of Darkness Words & Music by Chris DeBurgh Last night I saw it there shining in the dark again The light that all men seem to fear They say that sailors were drowning in the bay And people kept away Waiting for the riches that a wreck would bring When the morning comes And on and on that light returns again To haunt the ones who would not hear the pain; I took the old path down climbing over rocks and stones The place I knew when I was young And in my fear I had to carry on Where no-one else had gone Looking in the heart of darkness from above To the man inside I took my chance and set off for the light And started the journey of my life; And in the darkest hour that light was calling me Through the doorway to another world And there below me I saw all the days of my life Till the moment I stood on the shore Worlds away this was my destiny To be back here in another time And all around me I saw the faces that I knew Reaching out "there is nothing to fear" Worlds away Come with me; Last night I saw it there shining in the dark again The light that all men seem to fear; Come with me come with me come with me...

La chanson évoque une quête intérieure, celle d’un homme qui cherche la lumière dans l’obscurité de son âme. Il parle de cette lumière qui attire et effraie à la fois, comme un phare pour les marins perdus. Son récit le mène à revisiter des souvenirs d’enfance tout en affrontant ses peurs, se lançant dans un voyage qui le pousse à découvrir un monde différent, où il ressent la présence de ceux qu’il a connus. Cette exploration de la lumière et de l'obscurité symbolise un cheminement vers la vérité, où l'auteur se confronte à ses démons et trouve finalement du réconfort. Au fond, c'est une invitation à surmonter ses craintes et à embrasser l'inconnu, tout en se rendant compte que l'espoir et la lumière se trouvent souvent au cœur des épreuves.
