Standing alone
Facing from home
As our lyrics were being thrown
Sitting alone
Under the oak tree by your home
Didn't mean to let you down
What are we meant to be
Oh
I don't wanna be
A lost and hopeless soul
That's why I need you here
In the dark
In the dark
In the dark
In the dark
Back in my hometown where I grew up
Pretty lights fill up the night
And the city life was always moving on
Girl forget the past let's live in the known
The future still has so much to hold
You're a beauty to behold
And I hear those bells whistle
For the first time they chime
And those lights just seem to fade
But those colors don't go away with you in the dark
I need you to stay right here, with me in the dark
In the dark
In the dark
In the dark
In the dark
I see shimmering eyes from a distance
Beauty of the night in an instant
But my love for you is forever
