[Verse 1]
Well, I'm down on my knees again
And I pray to the only one
Who has the strength to bear the pain
To forgive all the things that I've done
[Chorus]
Oh, girl
Lead me into your darkness
When this world is trying it's hardest
To leave me unimpressed
Just one caress
From you and I'm blessed
[Verse 2]
When you think you've tried every road
Every avenue
Take one more look at what you found old
And in it, you'll find something new
[Chorus]
Oh, girl
Lead me into your darkness
When this world is trying it's hardest
To leave me unimpressed
Just one caress
From you and I'm blessed
[Bridge]
I'm shying from the light
I always loved the night
And now you offer me
Eternal darkness
[Verse 3]
Well I have to believe that sin
Can make a better man
It's the mood that I am in
That's left us back where we began
[Chorus]
Oh, girl
Lead me into your darkness
When this world is trying it's hardest
To leave me unimpressed
Just one caress
From you and I'm blessed
Oh, girl
Lead me into your darkness
When this world is trying it's hardest
To leave me unimpressed
Just one caress
From you and I'm blessed
[Outro]
"Thank you."
Well, I'm down on my knees again
And I pray to the only one
Who has the strength to bear the pain
To forgive all the things that I've done
[Chorus]
Oh, girl
Lead me into your darkness
When this world is trying it's hardest
To leave me unimpressed
Just one caress
From you and I'm blessed
[Verse 2]
When you think you've tried every road
Every avenue
Take one more look at what you found old
And in it, you'll find something new
[Chorus]
Oh, girl
Lead me into your darkness
When this world is trying it's hardest
To leave me unimpressed
Just one caress
From you and I'm blessed
[Bridge]
I'm shying from the light
I always loved the night
And now you offer me
Eternal darkness
[Verse 3]
Well I have to believe that sin
Can make a better man
It's the mood that I am in
That's left us back where we began
[Chorus]
Oh, girl
Lead me into your darkness
When this world is trying it's hardest
To leave me unimpressed
Just one caress
From you and I'm blessed
Oh, girl
Lead me into your darkness
When this world is trying it's hardest
To leave me unimpressed
Just one caress
From you and I'm blessed
[Outro]
"Thank you."
