Room Goes Dark

Eli Young Band · Other Songs - Eli Young Band

The room filled with the stain of a hundred cigarettes

Sober through the haze, just one silhouette

Fumble with the keys in the door

But don't turn the light on

Don't turn the light on



We don't need to wait for our eyes to adjust

Yeah, we can see it all by the time we touch

The streetlight through the shutters may be all we need

Cause the more the room goes dark, the more of you I see



Dim lit, the room black, we can keep those candles out

Shapes, we paint a map, where this is going now

A novel worth of words I wanna say

But don't turn the light on

Don't turn the light on



We don't need to wait for our eyes to adjust

Yeah, we can see it all by the time we touch

The streetlight through the shutters may be all we need

Cause the more the room goes dark, the more of you I see



Sun breaks cracks in closed blinds

We never once closed our eyes



We don't need to wait for our eyes to adjust

Yeah, we can see it all by the time we touch

The streetlight through the shutters may be all we need

Cause the more the room goes dark, the more of you I see

The more I see

Yeah, the more I see



In the dark, in the night, dim lit and closed eyes

In the black, when we touch, streetlight's more than enough

The more I see

Yeah, the more I see
