I Used to Be an Animal Songtext

von Eric Burdon & The Animals

I used to live in the dark girl
In a faraway land
And the place just gets darker and darker
You tried, you tried to go in and help me
But the more you went in it got harder to set yourself free
And i stayed, where i was at
Took that time to look back
But you, you know my ways
And all you had to do was wait for today

When i find my light
I used to live in the dark
But i found my light
Now i can see in the dark

So i'm on a journey, but the roads going down
So if you are with me, with me
You need to know it sucks to be falling
But that's after you've crossed the line
So the race yeah you won it
We used to live in the dark girl
Both you and i
But you made it out and baby i stayed inside

But you, you know my ways
And all you had to do is
Wait for today

When i find my light
I used to live in the dark
But i found my light
Now i can see in the dark
See in the dark

Magic, you got it girl
I can't do it man
To the magic

I should call you my hero
I should call you my love
I should call you the one
I'm living this life for
But now i can see you,
Coz it's gettin brighter
I think that i am just gonna stay right here

Stay right here
