    Story Behind the Song
    The lyrics to this song were scribbled down while riding the subway home from a late night at work in New York. I went straight home picked up the guitar, finalized the chord progression and lyrics, and stayed up til 5 am recording the song 'in the dark'. It was one of those songs that just had to get out of my system. As to what it is about... "In the Dark" refers to both a literal meaning as well as a figurative phrase. I wrote it about an experience I had with a lovely lady who came on strong, wound me up, and bolted without giving me a clue as to why. She left me "In the Dark", but it was all too familiar to worry or care.

    Lyrics
    I knew somehow you'd find a way...

    Falling back from here I stand
    I drop my guard as fast as I can see you
    Can't wait to see you
    Forgot what I know for passion's sake
    That's the chance that I will take to be with you
    Don't you want me to?

    Something in your voice that spoke to me
    Cause you're more me than I could ever be

    Miles and weeks anticipate
    Long distance calls can't hardly wait to hold you
    Lay my eyes on you
    I don't need this so give me more I'll take
    All you've got, I know I'll make it with you
    Gotta try for you

    You're for real as far as I can see
    Cause that first night your eyes smiled right back at me

    So I laced my heart around your neck
    It's too damn late to take it back
    I knew somehow you'd find a way
    To throw me back where I belong
    The place I've been for way too long
    It's lonely in the dark, but I'm okay

    It doesn't matter much to me
    That you can't even see
    All the things I'd give up for you

    Face to face now here you are
    Yet I've never felt so far away from you
    What did I do?
    I'll go back from where I came
    Find someone else who else to blame but you
    I followed you

    The blank look on your face I would not read
    Because I want you now you don't want me

    So I laced my heart around your neck
    It's too damn late to take it back
    I knew somehow you'd find a way
    To throw me back where I belong
    The place I've been for way too long
    It's lonely in the dark, but I'm okay

    It doesn't matter much to me
    That you will never see
    All the things I'd give up for you
