"Walk In The Dark" lyrics

"Walk In The Dark"

Every morning I wake dreaming of you
On Windover Lane by the window of your room
Your long brown locks fall across your face
Your memory comes crashing down till all my bones break
I call out your name, it echoes in the room
I sleep on the couch, a bed will not do

And I don't wanna let go, take me back to the start
I will love you while we are learning to walk in the dark

I write your name in every color, a flower was made
And bury my face in your memory of all my mistakes
In the doorway on streets where you used to stand
And kiss me goodbye, you would hold out your hand
It's starting to rain on Broadway and Canal
While the radiator rumbles and the rain's coming down

I don't wanna let go, take me back to the start
I will love you while we are learning to walk in the dark

Your fingers still slide from my wrist to my hand
On our way to the station in the rain while the traffic's all jammed
Now there's nothing to say, not even "goodnight"
I just scribble your name in tears in the book of my life
You will always be saved some place behind my eyes
Where it's always summer and we laugh in the summertime

I don't wanna let go, take me back to the start
I will love you while we are learning to walk in the dark
Walk in the dark
Walk in the dark
