And All That Dark Fades Away

from Tangier EP by Dean Batten

/

lyrics

Don't say goodbye, please just say goodnight
Goodbye means you won't be here at breakfast the next day
I don't want to be alone in my sheets
My knees get tangled and I lose count of sheep

Can I bum a smoke and can I get a light?
I'll buy you a pack when my check comes next Wednesday
Half tank of gas and I might get through the week
I could use more money so I can write, drink and eat

And I don't know why I feel this way
Guess I just am, the best I can, from day to day
And I sing my time, but the pain will stay
I just need her
To lay by her
And all that dark fades away
