Words Said in the Dark Lyrics

If I tell you, I love you
Let the words I say
Ring as true tomorrow
As they do today

Show me that you are listening
With an open heart
Tell me, you will remember
These words said in the dark

If I make a confession
Promise that I do tell
Let your lips be silent
As a broken wishing well

Like a heart shaped locket
If we're ever apart
Slip it into your pocket
These words said in the dark

See the candle flicker
Down to just a spark
Hold tight to this moment
These words said in the dark

See the candle flicker
Down to just a spark
Hold tight to this moment
These words said in the dark

When the sun comes climbing
Like a bandit into your head
Dogs outside are barking
The cobwebs from your head

And the harsh light of morning
Don't you take it to heart
Darling, nothing will change these
Words said in the dark

See the candle flicker
Down to just a spark
Hold tight to this moment
These words said in the dark

Oh, hold tight to this moment
These words said in the dark
