Don't Leave Me in the Dark - Keith Washington

Somebody hurt you

So bad it made you cry

Now you don’t trust any man

Say we’re all the same inside

And that love is a waste of time

All men are not to blame

All men are not the same

He never took time to listen

When something was on your mind

Now you’ve grown accustomed to

Keeping everything inside

Don’t turn away this time

Let me be your light

I wanna make it right

I think that you owe yourself

Another chance to love again

But I want you to know that you don’t have to go

Through life alone again

So I’ll be right there

Now and forevermore

My lady, don’t you think it’s time

For you to let me come inside?

So don’t leave me in the dark

I would never be the same if you leave me

Leave me all alone

Two steps behind the light

Don’t leave me in the dark

I would never be the same…

Can I convince you

That there is a better way?

You may not believe it now

But my love is here to stay

And I can only try to show

And that you need to know

I’ll do anything and more

I know that you owe yourself

Another chance to love again

But I want you to know that you don’t have to go

Through life alone again

As love is forever

And the truth is, love is precious

So you know my heart, know my soul

Know my feelings, don’t let go

Don’t leave me in the dark

I would never be the same if you leave me

Leave me all alone

Two steps behind the light

Don’t leave me in the dark

I would never be the same

You know I care, I really do

My open arms are here for you

Know that, in my mind

This feeling I feel inside

Don’t worry, no (don't worry)

I can take the hurt away

If you promise me

That your love will be

And forever you and I will always

(Don't leave me in the dark)

I would never be the same if you leave me

Leave me in the dark

The dark, the dark, the dark

(Don't) leave me in the dark

I would never be the same, no baby

You are everything that I

Ever need, ever want, baby

Say I need, oh I need, say I need you

Oh I do, oh I do, oh I need you

Now I need, oh I need, now I need you

Love is in the making

Love is in the plan

Oh I need you, baby do

Lord knows that I believe in everything that you do

Oh baby

Don’t leave me, baby

Cause I love you

I really do…
