When you're close to me You wrap me in your arms And sing so sweetly to me But then you're gone again And I just can't afford this life To be without you You let the light shine through my darkest days Up through the grey and clouds all fly away Feel you dance around slowly stoke the fire that is my tired mind Taking control of what was once mine and mine alone to command You let the light shine through my darkest days Up through the grey and clouds all fly away Oh when you're gone my thoughts are cold and grey I'm left to face my darkest days At first I lose enough but now it seems I need you more and more I'll beg and bow and steal to keep you near and keep my darkest days at bay
