Footsteps Songtext

von Pet Shop Boys

Footsteps in the dark
Only love will break your heart.
Footsteps, footsteps.

Whenever trouble comes around
Or lonely nights lead underground
And far in the dark
Abandoned cars suddenly start up
An anxious sound.
As long as I hear your footsteps in the dark that's all I need.

Footsteps in the dark
Only love will break your heart.
Footsteps, footsteps.

When loneliness induced fear
Like waves against a ramshacle pier
When thunder and rain
Scar the windowpane once again
I want you near.
As long as I hear your footsteps in the dark that's all I need.

I'm longing to see you
I want you, I need you.

Like a child who feels afraid
Of the dark at night
Hoping to hear a gentle touch
Turning on a welcome light
As long as I hear your footsteps in the dark that's all I need.
As long as I hear your footsteps in the dark that's all I need.

Footsteps in the dark
Only love will break your heart.
Footsteps, footsteps.

Footsteps in the dark
Only love will break your heart.
Footsteps, footsteps.
