My Dark Places Lyrics - Terence Trent Darby

Come and say hello 

In my shadow nature there's a private room 

Where I keep my fear 

Every now and then never knowing when 

I have to disappear 

Slaying my dragons by trying to love them 

Let's suspend some time together 

Let's reduce our gravity 

And remind ourselves of rainbows 

And make love convincingly 

Since we're parking in each other's spaces 

Would you visit me in my dark places? 

Would you come and help me bring it into the light? 

Would you visit me in my dark places? 

Would you help me burn a candle into the night? 

Come and say hello 

In the belly of my superstitions are many souvenirs 

From my travels through my psyches underworld 

Where I disappear 

Slaying my dragons by trying to love them 

Let's commit our souls to silver 

Let's commit our hearts to gold 

And remember in every moment 

That we have ourselves to hold 

Since we're laughing in each other's faces 

Would you visit me in my dark places? 

Would you come and help me bring it into the light? 

Would you visit me in my dark places? 

Would you help me burn a candle into the night? 

Come and say hello 

Let's suspend some time together 

Let's reduce our gravity 

And remind ourselves of rainbows 

And make love convincingly 

MY DARK PLACES (2) 

Since we're living in each other's graces 

And we're travelling at each other's paces 

Would you visit me in my dark places? 

Would you come and help me bring it into the light? 

Would you visit me in my dark places? 

Would you help me burn a candle into the night? 

Come and say hello
