The Dark I Know Well

There's a part I can't tell
About the dark I know well.

You say, "Time for bed now, child,"
Mom just smiles that smile-
Just like she never saw me
Just like she never saw me...

So, I leave, wantin' just to hide.
Knowin' deep inside
You are comin' to me.
You are comin' to me...

You say all you want is just a kiss goodnight,
And then you hold me and you whisper,
"Child the Lord won't mind.
It's just you and me.
Child you're a beauty. "

"God, it's good-lovin'-ain't it good tonight
You ain't seen nothin' yet-gonna treat you right.
It's just you and me.
Child you're a beauty"

I don't scream. Though I know it's wrong.
I just play along.
I lie there and breathe.
Lie there and breathe...

I wanna be strong-
I want the world to find out
That you're dreamin' on me,
Me and my "beauty"

Me and my "beauty"...

You say all you want is just a kiss goodnight,
And then you hold me and you whisper,
"Child the Lord won't mind.
It's just you and me.
Child you're a beauty. "

"God, it's good-lovin'-ain't it good tonight
You ain't seen nothin' yet-gonna treat you right.
It's just you and me.
Child you're a beauty"

There's a part I can't tell
About the dark I know well.

There's a part I can't tell
About the dark I know well.

There's a part I can't tell
About the dark I know well.

There's a part I can't tell
About the dark I know well.

There's a part I can't tell
About the dark I know well.
