I Will Follow You Into the Dark

Love of mine

Some day you will die

But I'll be close behind

I'll follow you into the dark

No blinding light

Or tunnels to gates of white

Just our hands clasped so tight

Waiting for the hint of the spark

If heaven and hell decide that they both are satisfied

Illuminate the "no's" on their vacancy sign

If there's no one beside you when your soul embarks

Then I'll follow you into the dark

In Catholic school

As vicious as Roman rule

I got my knuckles bruised

By a lady in black

I held my tongue

As she told me some

Fear is the heart of love

So I never went back

If heaven and hell decide that they both are satisfied

Illuminate the "no's" on their vacancy signs

If there's no one beside you when your soul embarks

Then I will follow you into the dark

You 'n me

Have seen everything to see

From Bangkok to Calgary

And the soles of your shoes

I owe one down

The time for sleep is now

It's nothing to cry about

'Cuz we'll hold each other soon

In the blackest of rooms

If heaven and hell decide that they both are satisfied

Illuminate the "no's" on their vacancy signs

If there's no one beside you when your soul embarks

Then I'll follow you into the dark

Then I'll follow you into the dark
