There are several Artists called Ark:
(1) ARK is a Norwegian progressive rock band resulting from the friendship and musical collaboration of guitarist Tore Østby (Conception) and drummer John Macaluso (ex-TNT, Yngwie Malmsteen), who later joined up with singer Jørn Lande (Jorn, Masterplan) to record two acclaimed albums.

Seen as the pioneer of the new experimental/minimal house style in France over ten years ago with releases on Brif, ARK has gone on to collaborate with and inspire a multitude of today’s established and rising stars across Europe... and the world ! From his origins as guitarist in a number of 80's funk bands, most notably Trankilou, where he hooked up with the legend that is Pepe Bradock and onto the great Matthew Herbert & LoSoul with their first collaboration, 'Belle Lurette' in '99. The 'Alleluyark' EP series from 2003 reaffirmed as his status as chief protagonist of experimental, groove led house and techno. His 2005 long player on Perlon, 'Caliente' won him critical acclaim, which is furthered by his more recent works together with Cabanne (as Copacabannark), David Taieb (as Shalark), Mikael Weill (as Les Cerveaux Lents), and Dolibox. His cannon of remixes is as long as the channel tunnel, reworking the likes of Stephen Beaupre, Mr. Oizo, Mossa, Salif Keita, Slabb, Krikor, Fym, Cabanne, Robag Whrume... Perlon releases his new album "Arkpocalypse Now" on April 2010.

Ark Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I got you on the line
There's something missing
That money can't buy
Weight on my shoulder
Why would you leave
I thought we were special
You got me on my knees
Don't bring it down, it down
Don't say it's over now
I can't endure the pain
Don't bring it down
Baby let it be
Words being spoken
Trying hard to understand
Life has no meaning
If I can't be your man
You say love is over
And that we grew apart
The voice of another
Echoes in your heart
Don't bring it down, it down
Don't say it's over now
If you're gonna let it rain
Don't bring it down
Don't bring it down on me
Baby let it be
You know I can't endure the pain
Rain on my door
You're not here anymore
And I need an answer or a reason
Cuts like a knife
I am stabbed in the side
And I bleed
Don't leave me burning in the fire
Your blood runs so cold.
Don't bring it down, it down
Don't say it's over now
If you're gonna let it rain
Don't bring it down
Don't bring it down on me
Baby let it be
If you gonna let it rain
Lord don't bring it down
Don't bring it down
'Cause I can't endure the pain
Don't bring, don't bring it down
Baby let it be

Rain on my doorstep
It's raining outside my house
I got you on the line
We're talking on the phone
There's something missing
There's a sense of incompleteness
That money can't buy
Money can't fill the void
Weight on my shoulder
I'm feeling burdened
Why would you leave
I'm confused about why you left
I thought we were special
I believed our relationship was unique
You got me on my knees
I'm pleading with you to come back
Don't bring it down, it down
Don't make me feel worse than I already do
Don't say it's over now
Don't declare our relationship is done
I can't endure the pain
I can't handle the emotional pain of losing you
Baby let it be
Don't make things worse, just let it go
Words being spoken
We're having a conversation
Trying hard to understand
I'm making an effort to comprehend
Life has no meaning
My existence feels pointless without you
If I can't be your man
If I can't be with you
You say love is over
You're telling me our love is finished
And that we grew apart
Our relationship deteriorated over time
The voice of another
Someone else has influenced your feelings
Echoes in your heart
Their influence is still resonating with you
You're not here anymore
You've left me
And I need an answer or a reason
I'm searching for an explanation
Cuts like a knife
The pain is unbearable
I am stabbed in the side
The heartache is overwhelming
And I bleed
My emotions are raw
Don't leave me burning in the fire
Don't abandon me in my suffering
Your blood runs so cold.
Your indifference is chilling
If you gonna let it rain
If you're going to make me suffer
Lord don't bring it down
Please don't make things worse
Don't bring, don't bring it down
Don't make me feel more pain
Baby let it be
Just let it go for both of our sakes
