The Dark I Know Well

Spring Awakening

[MARTHA]
There is a part I can't tell
About the dark I know well

You say: Time for bed now, child
Mom just smiles that smile
Just like she never saw me
Just like she never saw me

So, I leave, wanting to hide
Knowing deep inside
You are coming to me
You are coming to me

You say all you want is just a kiss goodnight
And then you hold me and you whisper
Child, the Lord won't mind
It's just you and me
Child, you're a beauty

God, it's good - the lovin' - ain't it good tonight?
You ain't seen nothing yet - gonna treat you right
It's just you and me
Child you're a beauty

[ILSE]
I don't scream, though I know it's wrong
I just play along
I lie there and breathe
Lie there and breathe

I wanna be strong
I want the world to find out
That you're dreamin' on me
Me and my beauty
Me and my beauty

[BOTH]
You say all you want is just a kiss goodnight
And then you hold me and you whisper
Child, the Lord won't mind
It's just you and me
Child, you're a beauty

God, it's good - the lovin' - ain't it good tonight?
You ain't seen nothing yet - gonna treat you right
It's just you and me
Child you're a beauty

There is a part I can't tell
About the dark I know well
