Deep In The Dark

Laura Branigan

Check it out, Joe

I'll tell you a secret if you know where to keep it
And you promise not to tell
Got a tale or two about a girl
That you could have sworn you knew so well
It was years ago, though it sounds like yesterday
You came on strong and she gave it all away

He had an angel's face, defied his grace, and an ace sittin' up his sleeve
But never mind, 'cos love is blind, and she needed to believe
His touch could feel, he held her safe from harm
If thoughts could kill, she'd have died there in his arms

Deep in the dark, ooh-oh-oh
The thunder in her heart, ooh-oh-oh
He told her every single lie
He swore he'd never told anyone before

Now you wake up in the dead of night, and reach out to touch her hair
But the bed is empty, turn on the light, and she's not even there
Then a note she wrote, you read that thing and weep
'cos if you love someone, and never know what runs so deep

Deep in the dark, ooh-oh-oh
The thunder in her heart, ooh-oh-oh
She told you every single lie
She swore she'd never heard before
Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha

Deep in the dark, ooh-oh-oh
The thunder in her heart, ooh-oh-oh
She told you every single lie
She swore she'd never heard before
Two, three, four

Deep in the dark, ooh-oh-oh
The thunder in her heart, ooh-oh-oh
She told you every single lie
She swore she'd never heard before
Two, three, four

Deep in the dark, ooh-oh-oh
The thunder in her heart, ooh-oh-oh
She told you every single lie
She swore she'd never told anyone before

Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha

Deep in the dark, ooh-oh-oh
The thunder in her heart, ooh-oh-oh
She told you every single lie
She swore she'd never heard before

Deep in the dark, ooh-oh-oh
