In the Dark
Embracing Shadows: A Thrilling Dance in the Dark with Nina Simone's Passionate Melody
Lyrics
In the dark
In a situation lacking light or clarity
It's just you and I
Only you and I present
Not a sound
No audible noise
Ther's not one sigh
No sigh is heard
Just the beet of my poor heart
Only the rhythm of my heartbeat
In the dark
Repetition of the lack of light or clarity
Now, in the dark, in the dark
Emphasizing the obscurity or lack of visibility
I get such a thrill
Experiencing excitement or intense emotion
When he presses his fingertips
When he touches my lips with his fingertips
Upon my lips
Asking me to remain silent
And he begs me to plase keep still
Expressing the desire for silence during intimacy
In the dark
Reiteration of the lack of light or clarity
But soon
Indicating the impending conclusion of an activity or situation
This dance will be endin'
Implying the ending of a dance
And you're gonna be missed
Expressing the anticipation of being missed
Gee, I'm not pretendin'
Not pretending about the feeling of being missed
'Cause I swear it's fun
Expressing the enjoyment of being kissed
Fun to be kissed
Emphasizing the fun aspect of kissing
In the dark
Repetition of the lack of light or clarity
Now we will find
Discovering what others have left behind
What the rest
What has been abandoned or neglected by others
Have left behind
Suggesting letting others dance while finding romance
Just let them dance
Enjoying the pursuit of romance in obscurity
We're gonna find romance
Intending to discover romance in the lack of clarity
Lord, in the dark
Reiteration of the lack of light or clarity
