Into The Dark
James Blunt · Other Songs - James Blunt
And lying in the embers is where we are
And if my promise is unreturned
Before the day is over I will depart
If I could choose, I'd have you stay
But I gave my heart to you and it's yours to break
Before my fears tear us apart
Won't you follow me into the dark
Love is blindness I can not see
Underneath our roots are tangled
And buried deep
When the leaves have fallen from the trees
Do we grow together entirely
If I could choose I'd have you stay
But I gave my heart to you and it's yours to break
Before my fears tear us apart
Won't you follow me into the dark
If I could choose I'd have you stay
But I gave my heart to you and it's yours to break
Before my fears tear us apart
Won't you follow me into the dark
Before my fears tear us apart
Won't you follow me into the dark
