After Dark Lyrics by Sam Salt

2018

So we sat in the park after dark
And we listened to the silence that we made
After dark

So we sat and we danced
And we laughed all in trance
Of confessions and obsessions in the park

And it's funny that she said
She'd rather sit in bed with a film on TV
I'm happy to live lazy, crazy
After dark

I've been waiting and we're all contemplating
The stories of the night are ringing in our brains
Don't turn on the lights because we'll all see our own fright
Confused and content in the park
After dark

Can't you hear it in the storm?
Feel it echo through your bones?
The smell of sugar and her crocked smile
Let me sit here for a while

Waiting for the sun
She's clinging to my arms
I'm thinking of smoking
But I'm already choking
And I hope that time's approaching
Because conversation's dead
After dark
After dark

Sit with me and feed me honey pies and lullabies
Don't fret about the worry
Got a blues in a jelly roll
Got a blues in an empty soul
In a rock and roll
(Ooh)
After dark
After dark
After dark

Can't you hear it in the storm?
Feel it echo through your bones?
The smell of sugar and her crocked smile
Let me sit here for a while

Because baby can't you hear me?
And baby don't you know?
That I've been
I've been waiting
Been waiting to go
