<b>THE DARK I KNOW WELL</b> by <i>Spring Awakening</i><br />MARTHA

There is a part I can’t tell

About the dark I know well

You say, “Time for bed now child,”

Mom just smiles that smile

Just like she never saw me

Just like she never saw me

So I leave, wanting just to hide

Knowing deep inside

You are coming to me

You are coming to me

You say all you want is just a kiss goodnight

And then you hold me and you whisper,

“Child, the Lord won’t mind.

It’s just you and me.

Child, you’re a beauty.

“God, it’s good – the lovin’ – ain’t it good tonight?

You ain’t seen nothing yet – gonna teach you right.

It’s just you and me

Child you’re a beauty.”

ILSE

I don’t scream, though I know it’s wrong

I just play along

I lie there and breathe

Lie there and breathe

I wanna be strong

I want the world to find out

That you’re dreamin’ on me

Me and my “beauty”

Me and my “beauty”

BOTH

You say all you want is just a kiss goodnight

And then you hold me and you whisper,

“Child, the Lord won’t mind.

It’s just you and me.

Child, you’re a beauty.

“God, it’s good – the lovin’ – ain’t it good tonight?

You ain’t seen nothing yet – gonna teach you right.

It’s just you and me

Child you’re a beauty.”

There is a part I can’t tell

About the dark I know well

There is a part I can’t tell

About the dark I know well

There is a part I can’t tell

About the dark I know well

There is a part I can’t tell

About the dark I know well
