Love lives in the dark, in all the shadows
You open up your heart, and then you close
Doubt stains like wine
On the walls of your suspicious mind
Sifting through the layers
Of the memories you stashed away
Catch up with all the prayers
Then you turn the page
Then your life fits in a capsule you take
When you swallow it leaves a bitter taste
Love lives in the dark where it lingers
Perhaps forever someone lights a spark
Then you run for cover
Then you tell your lover "let's just be friends"
And that's how the story sometimes ends
You open up your heart, and then you close
Doubt stains like wine
On the walls of your suspicious mind
Sifting through the layers
Of the memories you stashed away
Catch up with all the prayers
Then you turn the page
Then your life fits in a capsule you take
When you swallow it leaves a bitter taste
Love lives in the dark where it lingers
Perhaps forever someone lights a spark
Then you run for cover
Then you tell your lover "let's just be friends"
And that's how the story sometimes ends
