Down To The Darkness Lyrics

Down To The Darkness - Carole King

Everything's lost in illusion

 

I keep moving but I can't seem to get out of the shadows

 

Out into the light of day

 

Everyone's out in the afternoon

 

Turning their faces up to the sun like a spotlight

 

What's wrong with me I don't want to play

 

You're my obsession

 

I just can't get you out of my mind

 

I look around and I see all the signs

They say danger

 

I know you're gonna take me down to the darkness

 

Down to the darkness

 

Oh but I want you to

 

I know you're gonna take me down to the darkness

 

Down to the darkness

 

Oh but you know I want you to

 

Oh yes I want you to

 

I'm afraid of the dark

Oh but I'm attracted to it

 

I'm afraid of the dark

 

I want to run away but I can't do it

 

Through my hazy confusion

 

I close my eyes but your image is indelibly burned there

 

Seared into my memory

 

Now as I stand on the edge of the precipice

 

Looking down into the black abyss

 

I know I'll be lost with just one kiss

 

But I want to be

 

Even as the tongues of fire lick at me from below

 

No turning back I just can't let go of the danger

 

Oh

 

I know you're gonna take me down

 

I know you're gonna take me down to the darkness

 

Oh but I want you to

 

Oh yes I want you to

 

I want you to take me down

 

Down down down to the darkness

 

Oh

 

Down down down to the darkness

 

I want you take me

 

I want you take me

 

I want you take me down

 

 

Down down down to the darkness
