Through The Dark

Lyrics

Oh innocent smiles, how they put you to shame Same televised lines, I've seen the film before Sicilian men, they're going to save their name Leaving their brides in black shawls again See how it's shining through the dark As the teardrops fall and it illuminates the room And we can't stop staring for a moment Some silver-screen starlet But it's my story she's living in In a smoke-filled room pressed up against the door See how it's shining through the dark As the kettle boils And it illuminates the room Entertain me, eyes on this prize Hello, I'm drowning in your tide Welcome, so close to my pale skin I'm there But one touch and it's gone Same black and white blonde You know the face but never her name Hillbilly young boys Without a tooth between them See how it's shining through the dark Spinning a dream for the wide-awake And it illuminates the room Entertain me, fixing your eyes on the prize Hello, I'm drowning in your tide Welcome, so close to my pale skin I'm there Stay, don't roll away now (or Sister stay now, don't run now) This is my magic world And it's pulling me under so stay
