Hearts In The Dark

Engelbert Humperdinck

Compositor: Mark Spiro / Robbie Buchanan

When we got together, we were drowning in the touch.
You kept things to yourself and didn't say too much.
I let you have your silence, 'cause I thought you needed time.
But now I want to stop tryin' to read between the lines.
I can't wait forever, one side needs to know
the feelings of the other before they know their own.

Every night, you take your silence to bed.
Every day, the same words go on never said.
And tonight, we'll do it all over again.
You've touched my life forever, but we'll never really start.
Everytime you turn ON the light, my heart's in the dark,
heart's in the dark

You can have your secrets, a part of you that's yours.
But you want me in your life, and need to know what for.
Help me get around it, 'cause we're more than passing ships.
I see it in your eyes, let me hear it from your lips.

Every night, you take your silence to bed.
Every day, the same words go on never said.
And tonight, we'll do it all over again.
You've touched my life forever, but we'll never really start.
Everytime you turn ON the light, my heart's in the dark,
heart's in the dark.

Our love is a broken rage, and I'm drowning in my doubts.
It may sound like I'm angry, but I'm only reaching out.
And time won't change what I'm goin' through,
only you can do that.
If you want me now to stay with you, then bring the reason back.

And tonight, don't take your silence to bed.
Every day, don't let those words go unsaid.
And tonight, we'll start it all over again.
Baby touch my life forever, let me know you want to start.
'Cause everytime you turn ON the light, my heart's in the dark.

And tonight, don't take your silence to bed.
And today, don't let those words go unsaid.
And tonight, we'll start all over again.
Baby touch my life forever, let me know you want to start.
'Cause everytime you turn on the light, my heart's in the dark.
