Nina Simone › Lyrics › In the Dark

In the dark, it's just you and I
Not a sound, there's not one sigh
Just the beat of my poor heart
In the dark

Now, in the dark, in the dark, I get such a thrill
When he presses his fingertips upon my lips
And he begs me to please keep still
In the dark

But soon, this dance will be endin'
And you're gonna be missed
Gee, I'm not pretendin',
'Cause I swear it's fun, fun to be kissed
In the dark

Now we will find
What the rest have left behind
Just let them dance, we're gonna find romance
Lord, in the dark
