Keep Me in the Dark Lyrics

When the evening sunlight's fingers
Stretch across the floor
Cover up your eyes with feathers
Softly close the door

Take me in your heavy lips
Take me where the shadows slide
The lacey intrigue of this weekend
Should not be abused

You can take me where you want
But could you take me all the time

Away yeah oh wait a little longer
Don't go too far
I wouldn't lie
I wouldn't like you
Keeping me in the dark

Tender is the truce I'm tasting
But watching you dictates
Heady nights of sleepless wasting
A face I can't escape

We could wave the world goodbye
To all of the boys cheerio

Away yeah oh wait a little longer
Don't go too far
I wouldn't lie
I wouldn't like you
Keeping me in the dark

Help me cause I'm sinking deeper
Tell me what to say
When without words you call me closer
Each time you turn away
Something inside you cries
But it is something I'll never find

Away yeah oh wait a little longer
Don't go too far
I wouldn't lie
I wouldn't like to think you were
Keeping me in the dark
