So dark, so dark
(Dark)
So dark, so dark
(Dark)
Inside lookin' out my window
I don't see nothin' but rain
Sun up in the sky just-a-shinin'
(Just-a-shinin')
Still I'm lost in my shadow of pain
(Mm, hmm)
Like an innocent man that's on death row
I don't understand what made you go
And wanna leave me, baby
Leave me in the dark
Can you tell me, tell me?
You took my sex and my money
(Money)
Took all my self-esteem, yes you did
You had the nerve to think it was funny
(Funny)
I never knew a bitch so mean, yes sir
You absolutely drove a man to tears
All I really know is that you sincerely
Wanna hurt me, baby
Oh, yes you do
You wanna hurt me in the dark
Sunshine, somebody make
The sun shine, dark cloud, somebody
Take this dark cloud away
Just as sure as Noah built the ark
(That's how sure)
That's how sure I am you broke my heart
How could you, baby, leave me in the dark?
Baby, it's so dark , so dark, so dark
(Dark)
Feel like the sun ain't never
Gonna shine, you left me in the dark
So dark, so dark
(Dark)
I don't know, I don't know why
We ever had to part
Baby, can't see a damn thing
Out my window, it's so dark
So dark, so dark
(Dark)
Sometimes I want to curse
The ground you walk on
Even when I know that
Everything you feel, I feel it to
I wanna curse you, baby
Ooh, you left me in the dark
And now I want to curse you, baby
(I wanna curse you, baby)
For leavin' me alone, alone, alone
(You left me in the dark)
Oh, yes you did
And now all I wanna say is
In the dark
Ow, you left me, ow, you left me
It's like being on death row
(In the dark)
I don't understand why you had to go
I don't understand why you
(Hurt me in the dark)
Don't understand why you
(Hurt me in the dark)
Don't understand why you hurt me
Hurt me, hurt me, hurt me here
Just leave me
(In the dark, in the dark)
So dark, so dark
(Dark, in the dark)
So dark, so dark
(Dark, in the dark
