[Riff 2]
Lie with me somewhere under sleeping stars
[Riff 2]
Darling lie with me somewhere on the edge of night
[Riff 3]
Lie with me in the tall wet grass
[Riff 3]
Darling lie with me somewhere on the edge of light
[Riff 4]
Somewhere where it can be just you and me
[Riff 5]
I believe in the absence of sun
I believe in the shadow of one
[Riff 5]
I believe in the power of two
I believe in the darkness of you
[Riff 6]
My love, my love, my darkest love
[Riff 1]
[Riff 2]+[Ebow 1]
Lie (in the still beating night) with me (I lie close to your face)
somewhere under des- (the moon is a spotlight) ert hills (for this quiet space)
[Riff 2]
Darling lie (if we stay still like statues) with me (and don't say a word)
somewhere on the vir- (we will not be seen) gin sand (we will not be heard)
[Riff 3]+[Ebow 2]
Lie (The stillness has purpose) with me (it's own subtle dance)
on the warm (if we move just an inch) black stones (we have ruined this chance)
[Riff 3]
Darling lie (its the calm that is key here) with me (its coolness has strength)
somewhere on the (its shadows hold mysteries) virgin strand (locked to great lengths)
[Riff 4]
Somewhere where it can be just you and me
[Riff 5]
I believe in the absence of sun
(Black like a bible read words in hand and black like a crow flying low to the sand)
I believe in the shadow of one
(All eyes are closed to the absence of light, those others, still sleeping, are nowhere in sight)
[Riff 5]
I believe in the power of two
(But we hear the star fall that cannot be seen and we feel the stirrings of things inbetween)
I believe in the darkness of you
(Tell me dreams in the dark that you won't tell by day and ways you've discovered to hold dawn at bay)
[Riff 6]
My love (now all I need), my love (is for you),
My darkest love (to show me the light, to show me the light, show me the light)
[Riff 6]
My love (all I need), my love (is for you),
My darkest love (to show me the light, to show me the light, show me the light)
[Riff 7]
All I need is you to show me the light
[Riff 7]
All I need is you to show me the light
[Riff 7]
All I need is for you to show me the light
[Riff 7]
Show me, show me,
(There's so many nights I lie close to your face, the moon is a spotlight for this point in space)
[Riff 7]
Show me the light
(If we stand here like statues and don't say a word we will not be seen, we will not be heard)
[Riff 7]
Show me, show me,
(The stillness has purpose its own subtle dance, if we move just an inch we have ruined this chance)
[Riff 7]
Show me the light
(Its the dark that is key here, it's cruelness has strength, it's shadows hold mysteries, locked at great lenghts)
[Riff 7]
Ahhhhh....

[Matt's Part:]
In the still beating night I lie close to your face
The moon is a spotlight for this quiet space
If we stay still like statues and don't say a word
We will not be seen we will not be heard
The stillness has purpose its own subtle dance
If we move just an inch we have ruined this chance
Its the calm that is key here, its coolness has strength
Its shadows hold mysteries, locked to great lenghts
Black like a bible, read words in hand
And black like a crow flying low to the sand
All eyes are closed to the absence of light
Those others, still sleeping, are nowhere in sight
When we hear the star fall and cannot be seen
And we feel the stirrings of things inbetween
Tell me dreams in the dark that you can't share by day
And ways you've discovered to hold dawn at bay
Now all I need is for you to show me the light, show me the light, show me the light
All I need is for you the show me the light, show me the light, show me the light
