lyrics

See in the Dark (© 2011 Mike Kimlicko)

The sky is black, but the night is still very far
And the storm, it creeps while my love, she sleeps in the car
And the rage, it keeps, but I don‟t know who you are
But for now I‟m fine, while I‟ve still got my guitar.

There‟s no time to waste, no trace of love to be found
While the sky opens up and the rain crashes to the ground
Down this winding road, as my thoughts unfold with a frown
But for now I‟m fine, while I‟m driving through this town

So don‟t be late to wake
There‟s far too much at stake
The way is clear
And though she‟s near, she‟s gone

Wipe the sleep from your eyes, for the lies were not in a dream
While the whisper is soft, the words flow down in a scream
Though the words are clear, it‟s hard to know what you mean
But for now I‟m fine, though your eyes have lost their gleam

So don‟t be late to wake
There‟s far too much at stake
The way is clear
And though she‟s near, she‟s gone

It came to me not in a flash, nor with a spark
Because when it‟s gone you have to learn to see…
Learn to see… to see in the dark

With your feet on the dash and the window down for the air
It‟s plenty warm outside but she‟s far too cold to care
When the road is done the heart will have no spare
But for now I‟m fine, though the truth is hard to bare

So don‟t be late to wake
There‟s far too much at stake
The way is clear
And though she‟s near, she‟s gone

So don‟t be late to wake
There‟s far too much at stake
The way is clear
And though she‟s near, she‟s gone
