Bm       A
Make me fumble
G       Bm
Make me fall
Bm              A
Make my heart stop and start
G             F#
To tremble uncontrollably
Bm           A
Let my eyes see fear make desire
       G             Bm
Keep those who long apart
Bm
Forbid the kiss
          A
And leave us innocent
         G         F#         Bm
Of the things some do in the dark

Chorus:
      G         F#         D A
The things some do in the dark
      G         F#         Bm
The things some do in the dark

Make me remember
Make me forget
Make my mind unable
To force the body to do its will
Let it be right for belief and denial
To share a space in the heart
and leave us only to imagine
About the things some do in the dark

Chorus

Make me pretend
Make me expect
Things can go and come to pass
Without trial or tribulation
Let this life space and time
Leave my body with permanent marks
Faded scars and lines
But not a single impression
Of the things some do in the dark

Chorus

Let me be tempted
Let me be torn
But make my thoughts pure and not
Morally corrupt in form
Let us sleep tonight
Let innocence lie in our dreams and secret hearts
With burning desire
A need to know and do
The things some do in the dark

Chorus
