Meet Me in the Dark

Meet me in the dark
You can never tell
Meet me in the dark
Oh it'll never help
Meet me in the dark
You can never tell
Meet me in the dark

We got lost
In the summer wind
Might as well
Changed our names
I don't much go
For regret
I'm pretty sure
You'd say the same

I was working at the mill
Scrawling rhymes on sugar bags
Thought to whisper them to you
But they all just seemed contrived

Meet me in the dark
You can never tell
Meet me in the dark
Oh it'll never help
Meet me in the dark
You can never tell
Meet me in the dark

You couldn't swim
I couldn't drive
We couldn't sleep
Our skin just knew
You mentioned how
Your mother died
I nodded while
I knelt for you

When September straggled in
We flipped a coin on who would leave
You called me from your mother's bed
You answered very quietly

Meet me in the dark
You can never tell
Meet me in the dark
Oh it'll never help
Meet me in the dark
You can never tell
Meet me in the dark
Oh it'll never help

Where are you tonight she said
Where are you tonight she said
Where are you tonight she said
Where are you?

There is no way
To break the past
The sugar beets
On every train
I touched your face
It doesn't last
We pile up
We never change

You took a steak knife to my pillow
All its feathers they were blue
I just put off everything
Everything except for you

Meet me in the dark
You can never tell
Meet me in the dark
Oh it'll never help
Meet me in the dark
You can never tell
Meet me in the dark
Oh it'll never help
