Take me to the night
Don't let me see the light shine
Let me pour some red wine
Let me stay with you
Now never did I think that
You would be offended
If rules were ever bent
In shapes we never drew
Will you tie this scarf around my eyelids
To make sure not to let a drop of light in
Only if we're not going to sleep yet
'Cause I want to feel your shape with my fingertips
When I'm in this light
That's when I feel alright
When I'm in this light
That's when I feel alright
It's not like we are strangers
But we might be in danger
Somewhere I did tell you
That I was going to love you
So I will do my best
To keep my head above my chest
Where I can see you clearly
Where I can see you near me
Will you tie this scarf around my eyelids
To make sure not to let a drop of light in
Only if we're not going to sleep yet
'Cause I want to feel your shape with my fingertips
I'll expect the worst
Maybe you will strike out first
'Cause only when it's dark
Can you make out all the stars
See, touch me when you're charged
Then your fingertips will spark, reach
Every light that turns on will bring us to a new dawn
Dawn
When I'm in this light
That's when I feel alright
When I'm in this light
That's when I feel alright
