Meet Me In The Dark Lyrics by Melissa Etheridge

Meet Me In The Dark

Keep your eyes down, keep your head lowered
Keep to your self dear, do not tell a soul
You know it's wrong what they've been sayin'
And you knew all along that I would have to go

Find the place where light shines on my reflection
A place where I can stand upon my own
Not down on my knees
Until then please

[chorus]
Meet me in the dark
Meet me in the shadows
Past the old graveyard
On Eisenhower road
Meet me where the storms
Blow out on their own dear
Meet me in the dark
Never let me go

I know everyone has their unspoken fear
That eats away their senses and their humanity
They carry all their secrets every night down to the river
And they try so hard to drown them
They wont do that to me

Cause I'm working hard saving all my money
And the tips in this jar will by a brand new set of wings
For my mercury
Until then please

[chorus]

I could never hide this little light of mine
If God made a mistake then I should die before I wake
Maybe it's my fate to swim against this tide
Swallowing my pride

Keep your eyes down; say that you don't know me
For I could not survive if they took you away

[chorus]
