[Verse 1]
Oooh, oh oh, aaaah
I thought I was happy
Yeah, at least I went through the motions
I was always laughing
What was left of my emotions
And my whole life, was compromised
And my smile, was in disguise
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Then I met you (Then I met you) and I let you-ooh
Oh, I let you touch me (Touch me)
[Chorus]
In the darkness
You make me see how love can feel
In the darkness
I can't believe how good it feels
[Verse 2]
I thought I'd go crazy
Yeah, I couldn't sleep through the nighttime
I would toss and turn
Our demons reached up outta my mind
Ooh, I sleep like a baby now
With you here, you're my baby now
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Every night (Every night) I want surprises
When you touch me (Touch me)
[Chorus]
In the darkness
You make me see how love can feel
In the darkness
I can't believe how good it feels
[Bridge]
And when I'd had nothing to hold
You showed me the handle
Ooh, and when I was so cold
You were a vigilant candle
Oh-ah, in the darkness, in the darkness
[Saxophone Solo by Richie Cannata]
[Outro]
Oh oh, whoa
And when I'd had nothing to hold
You showed me the handle
Ooh, and when I was so cold
You were a vigilant candle (Whoa, oh-oh, oh-oh)
In the darkness (Whoa, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh)
In the- In the- In the darkness (Oh, you made me feel)
You make me see how love can feel (Oh, so real)
(In the darkness)
I can't believe how good it feels ([?])
In the- In the- In the darkness
You made me see how love (It really) really feels ([?])
(In the darkness)
I can't believe how good it feels (It's so, yeah, so good)
In the darkness
You made me see how love really feels (You make me feel)
(In the darkness)
Oooh, oh oh, aaaah
I thought I was happy
Yeah, at least I went through the motions
I was always laughing
What was left of my emotions
And my whole life, was compromised
And my smile, was in disguise
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Then I met you (Then I met you) and I let you-ooh
Oh, I let you touch me (Touch me)
[Chorus]
In the darkness
You make me see how love can feel
In the darkness
I can't believe how good it feels
[Verse 2]
I thought I'd go crazy
Yeah, I couldn't sleep through the nighttime
