After Dark

What's that in the corner?
It's too dark to see
What's that voice I'm hearing?
Who's that calling me?
Long ago and far away I heard a voice
One I heard you sing your song I had no choice
Terror took control and told me what to say
Letting loose of fear I finally found the way
After dark I see you
After dark I feel you
After dark I want you
After dark I need you
Of age there is no question
Death's shadow is undone
We only need each other
And shelter from the sun
After dark I see you
After dark I feel you
After dark I want you
After dark I need you
There's no turning back now
My fate is traced in blood
I've tasted true salvation
Your power is my drug
After dark I need you
After dark I want you
After dark I feel you
After dark I see you
After dark I touch you
After dark I
After dark, after dark, after dark
