In The Dark - Shirley Horn

In the dark, in the dark, just you and I

Not one sound, not one sigh

Just the beat of my poor heart in the dark

In the dark, in the dark, I get such a thrill

When he presses his fingertips upon my lips

And he begs me to please be still in the dark

Soon, this dance will be endin'

And you’re gonna be missed

Gee, but I’m not pretendin'

But I swear it’s fun, it’s fun to be kissed

In the dark, in the dark we’re gonna find

What the rest have left behind

We’re gonna dance, we’re gonna find romance in the dark

Just let them dance, we’re gonna find romance in the dark
