Lyrics The Waterboys

The Waterboys

My Dark Side

Draw in close lady bride

Take a look at my dark side

I can't show this to anyone

But you my close and intimate one

My dark side

My dark side

You've got my trust and that's a fact

But please be careful how you act

Drop the jury, leave 'em home

I won't be judged - only known

My dark side

My dark side

I may resist and I may fight

But I couldn't pass here without your light

Don't withdraw, don't disengage

Hold your fire when you touch his cage

My dark side

My dark side

Love's alive in your cheeks

Please don't die when he speaks

Only love can walk between

The parts that fear and need to be seen

All my defences and all my ploys

Are to protect a little boy

I can't show him to anyone

But you my close and intimate one

My dark side

My dark side

My dark side

My dark side...

I've been hurt

But I'm alright

Because underneath

There is a Light!
