lyrics
In the darkness
In the darkness
In the darkness we make love
In the darkness
In the darkness
In the darkness we make love
Blackmagic the promise
The premise the endless
The sea we travel
On to arrive at the
Very beginning of where we started
Journeying onward into the light
And deeper into shadow
Life will bring
Trust it will bring
And store the memory you unravel
You messing with my emotions
You messing with the way I feel about you
You messing with my devotion
To what I know and what is real
Your love
Your love is a
Your heart
Your heart brings a
Blackmagic the promise
The premise the endless
The sea we travel
On to arrive at the
Very beginning of where we started
Journeying onward into the light
And deeper into shadow
Life will bring
Trust it will bring
And store the memory you unravel
I feel so close to you
I feel so close to me
I started with the feeling of together
So why do I fear getting close to you
Losing you would mean
The worst had come true
Holding you is all
I seem to want to do
Blackmagic the promise
The premise the endless
The sea we travel
On to arrive at the
Very beginning of where we started
Journeying onward into the light
And deeper into shadow
Life will bring
Trust it will bring
And store the memory you unravel
In the darkness
In the darkness
In the darkness we make love
In the darkness
In the darkness
In the darkness we make love
