Lyrics

I think about your eyes all the time
At night it's overwhelming
I try to block them out of my mind
They're too bright I still see them shining

In the darkness

I see your smile, I hear you speak
I smell your honey hair so sweet
I taste your jelly lips, feel your fingertips
Touching me

In the darkness I see you the best
Haunting my unconsciousness
Never aging, always beautiful
Like apparitions and angels

In night and day dreams
It's always you and me
If I could sleep forever
You would never leave me

In the darkness I see you the best
Haunting my unconsciousness
Never aging, always beautiful
Like apparitions and angels

In the darkness I see you the best
Haunting my unconsciousness
In the darkness I see you the best
In the darkness, In the darkness
