Lyrics

[Female]
I watch you come home at night
I hear you in the hallway
And everything's familiar
You take me in your arms and hold me tight
It feels as though everything in the world's gonna be alright
[Both]
But then the lights go out
And the night crawls in
I can feel the storm clouds rollin' across my skin

[Female]
Isn't there something I can say
To make you stay tonight
What does my love mean to you?
[Male]
Confusion has taken hold
I'm frightened of what I've become
[Female]
I've become a shadow of myself
[Both]
Is this how love is supposed to be?

[Male]
I know you would wait for me sometimes
To hold you close and tell me
That you loved me
And although I feel the same and would hold you tight
I always knew that this world would never turn out right
[Both]
And when the lights go out
And the night descends
The path turns dark and the journey ends

[Male]
I wish there was something I could do
To make you understand that I
I never meant to hurt you
[Female]
Confusion has taken hold
I'm frightened of what is to come of us
[Both]
Is this how our love is meant to be

And then the lights go out...
