I Will Follow You Into The Dark

Love of mine, someday you will die
I will be close behind, I'll follow you into the dark
No blinding light or tunnels to gates of white
Just our hands clasped so tight, waiting for the hint of a spark

If heaven and hell decide that they both are satisfied
Illuminate the nos on their vacancy signs
If there's no one beside you when your soul embarks
I'll follow you into the dark

In Catholic school, vicious as Roman rule
I got my knuckles bruised by a lady in black
I held my tongue as she told me, "Son
Fear is the heart of love", so I never went back

If heaven and hell decide that they both are satisfied
Illuminate the nos on their vacancy signs
If there's no one beside you when your soul embarks
I'll follow you into the dark

You and me have seen everything to see
From Bangkok to Calgary and the soles of our shoes
Are all worn down, the time for sleep is now
It's nothing to cry about 'cause we'll hold each other soon
In the blackest of rooms

If heaven and hell decide, they both are satisfied
Illuminate the nos on their vacancy signs
If there's no one beside you when your soul embarks
I'll follow you into the dark
I'll follow you into the dark
