Song Lyrics

In the dark
There's just you and I
Not a sound, baby, not one sigh
Just the beat of my poor heart
In the dark

In the dark
I get such a thrill
When he places his fingertips upon my lips
And he begs me, "please be still
In the dark"

Oh, soon this dance will be ending
And I know, baby, you are gonna be missed
Gee, I'm not pretending
'Cause you know, it's fun, fun to be kissed
In the dark

I know that we will find
What the rest, what the rest, what the rest have left behind
So let 'em dance while we find romance
In the dark

Oh, you know that soon
This dance will be ending
And I know, pretty baby, you are gonna be missed
Yeah, but gee, you know I'm not pretending
'Cause you know, it's fun, fun to be kissed
In the dark

I know we will find
What the rest, what the rest, what the rest have left behind
So let 'em dance while we find romance
In the dark
