[Verse 1]
I found a ring deep inside a box on a dead-end street
And you were there watching me but I didn't know
I couldn't see, I was lost, asleep inside a fantasy
I love your hair in the mornings, you know
You love to run wild and let the mane flow
And you run away, but we meet again soon
South of the border and over the moon
[Chorus]
And when you're gone, it never feels right
It gets so cold in the dark of the night
And I only like the shade when you're blocking the light
I only like the shade when you're blocking the light
[Verse 2]
I put the ring back where it belongs, it feels right
And you were waiting up all night, I didn't know
If I ran away and got lost
That you'd still be there anyway
I figured out what you whispered that night
Somewhere the clouds touched the mountains just right
Somewhere we're dancin' and you're singin' the tune
South of the border and over the moon
[Chorus]
And when you're gone, it never feels right
It gets so cold in the dark of the night
And I only like the shade when you're blocking the light
I only like the shade when you're blocking the light
I only like the shade when you're blocking the light
I only like the shade when you're blocking the light
I only like the shade when you're blocking the light
I only like the shade when you're blocking the light
I only like the shade when you're blocking the light
[Instrumental Break]
[Chorus]
And when you're gone, it never feels right
It gets so cold in the dark of the night
And I only like the shade when you're blocking the light
I only like the shade when you're blocking the light
Only like the shade when you're blocking the light
Only like the shade, only like the shade
Only like the shade when you're blocking the light
Only like the shade when you're blocking the light
Only like the shade when you're blocking the light
Only like the shade, only like the shade
Only like the shade when you're blocking the light
