I Will Follow You Into The Dark

Love of mine Some-day you will die But I'll be close be-hind I'll foll-ow you in-to the dark No blind-ing light Or tunn-els to gates of white Just our hands clasped so tight Wait-ing for the hint of a spark If heav-en and hell de-cide That they both are sat-is-fied Il-lu-min-ate the no's on their va- can-cy signs If there's no one be-side you when your soul em-barks Then I'll foll-ow you in-to the dark In Catho-lic school, as visc-ious as Ro-man rule I got my knuck-les bruised by a la- dy in black And I held my tongue as - she told me, son Fear is the heart of love, so I nev- er went back If heav-en and hell de-cide That they both are sat-is-fied Il-lu-min-ate the no's on their va- can-cy signs If there's no one be-side you when your soul em-barks Then I'll foll-ow you in-to the dark You and me have seen ev-ery-thing to see From Bang-kok to Cal-ga-ry And the souls of your shoes are all worn down The time - for sleep is now It's no-thing to cry a-bout 'Cause we'll hold each other soon in the black-est of roo-oo-oo-oo-ms If heav-en and hell de-cide That they both are sat-is-fied Il-lu-min-ate the no's on their va- can-cy signs If there's no one be-side you when your soul em-barks Then I'll foll-ow you in-to the dark And I'll foll-ow you in to the dark
