Dark-eyed December, darling The way you held my head Try to make love when bells are ringing And to escape your bed I am in denial about what you said last night Like a fallen child I'm climbing fences To think this body is the same To think you broke down my defenses The second you pronounced my name I'm preparing for the shame, the morninglight I feel it darken when morning's supposed to come I know where I live, I just don't know where I belong Dark-eyed December, take my soul I love you 'til the day I die But life calls on us to say goodbye Dark-eyed December, darling The way you said my name I'm preparing for the shame, the morninglight I feel it darken when morning's supposed to come I know where I live, I just don't know where I belong Dark-eyed December, take my soul I love you 'til the day I die But life calls on us to say goodbye
