[Lyric] In the Darkness (Harvey Andrews)

In the darkness of the night
I sometimes wonder was I right
To leave you, love, without a smile
Without a word when all the while
It hurt inside to say goodbye
As you begged for another try
At loving me
At pleasing me

But though I tried to need you still
I fought a battle 'gainst your will
To tie me down and make me stay
To keep the hills and seas at bay
To make of me an only man
A loving but a lonely man
Meant just for you
That's what you tried to do

And now within an empty day
I feel an ache about the way
I left you and I said goodbye
In case we meet and want to try
Again, my love, to build a wall
To keep out ev'rything but all
Our love could mean
Oh, what our love could mean
So in the darkness of the night
I sometimes wonder was I right
To leave you, love, without a smile
Without a word when all the while
It hurt inside to say goodbye
As you begged for another try
At loving me
At pleasing me
