Dark Back

[Verse 1]

Dogs were barking the moon was black

As we stood there swaying with the dark on our backs

Slipped through your fingers and I held you tight

I could have rocked there slowly in the cold all night

[Chorus]

My body was telling you my mouth wouldn't say

Time it was standing but I knew it wouldn't stay

[Verse 2]

Danced alone in the streetlight and I sang you a song

Kissed you once last time saying it won't be long

Til our arms again would be wrapping around

I didn't know if it was so but I took comfort in the sound

[Chorus]

My body was telling you my mouth wouldn't say

Time it was standing but I knew it wouldn't stay

[Verse 3]

I stepped slowly ascending the stair

Looked back only once and again met you there

Passed my message likе smoke from my mind through my eyes

Watchеd it float to you gently watched it float into the night

[Chorus]

My body was telling you my mouth wouldn't say

Time it was standing but I knew it wouldn't stay

My body was telling you my mouth wouldn't say

Time it was standing but I knew it wouldn't stay
