Losing blood, the weakness of, falling in love,

Until you, oh the weapon you make of my heart,

And it’s true, I was never afraid of the dark,

Em G Cmaj7 Bm

Until you, oh the weapon you make of my heart,

Em G Cmaj7 Bm

Resisting, your soul, is walking, a tightrope,

The distant sound, of dangerous ground, wolves are calling,

And I was never afraid of the dark,

No I was never afraid

Until you, oh the weapon you make of my heart,

Em G Cmaj7 Bm

And it’s true, I was never afraid of the dark,

And I was never afraid of the dark,

No I was never afraid

Until you, oh the weapon you make of my heart,

Em G Cmaj7 Bm

Love is believing,

Em G Cmaj7 Bm

love is believing…
