lyrics

If You Must Dance [Do So Darkly]

You are the last of the black haired girls
Sweet as a smile with blood in your mouth
Turn on the night
We can’t be sure of anything in this life

Paint your face, let’s give them a smile
Blind love crazy as hell in the moonlight
From my mouth, pull out any word you’d like
For you I’d pray for darkness, I’d pray for fire

And if you must dance, I’ll be there to spin you around
If the moment takes your mind
If you must dance, do so darkly
For the time to take your side, it is upon me

And if the evil’s on your mind
Once or twice, the dark side’s been a friend of mine
Turn out the light
With your laugh we’ll choke the stars out of the sky

This condition: love’s my superstition
Turn the crosses upside down, turn me on
We come alive
Oh, in the night
