The Fratellis - Living in the Dark Lyrics

i was lost like a love sick ghost
maybe for the very first time
you were there where the truth gives way
not for the very last time
in a daze from your sea sick ways
nobody else could thrill me
in your gaze i was paralysed
love in the very first degree

in this showdown pain was sweet
i took all i could take shook all i could shake
and your moves got strange in my defeat
i was nothing less than torn crying out to be reborn

come back baby you can make me happy
or maybe you can prove me wrong?
you’re the only one who could ever save me
but maybe you could prove me wrong?
i’ve been living in the dark down here too long

i was born once again my love
in the midst of the rainstorm
i would kiss your feet and praise your name
if you sign my release form

in this showdown pain was sweet
i took all i could take shook all i could shake
and your moves got strange in my defeat
i was nothing less than torn crying out to be reborn

come back baby you can make me happy
or maybe you can prove me wrong?
you’re the only one who could ever save me
but maybe you could prove me wrong?
i’ve been living in the dark down here too long

And if you should lose your way
I’ll be here waiting every day
Wild wild horses couldn’t keep me
from your front door oh I swear

come back baby you can make me happy
or maybe you can prove me wrong?
you’re the only one who could ever save me
but maybe you could prove me wrong?

come back baby you can make me happy
or maybe you can prove me wrong?
you’re the only one who could ever save me
but maybe you could prove me wrong?
i’ve been living in the dark down here
Keeping my intentions clear
Out of luck in the dark down here too long
