LYRICS

There is a part I can’t tell

’bout the dark I know well.

You say, “Time (F5)for bed now, (Am)child.”

Mom (F5)just smiles (Am)that smile,

just (F5)like she (Am)nev er saw me,

just (F5)like she (Am)nev er saw me.

So, I (Dm7)leave,

want in’ just to hide,

know in’ (F5)deep in (Am)side

you (F5)are com (Am)in’ to me,

you are com in’ (Am)to me...

You say all you want is just a kiss good night, then you hold me and you whis per, “Child, the Lord won’t mind.

It’s just you and me.

Child, you’re a (F)beau ty.

God, it’s good— the lov in’.

Ain’t it good to night?

You ain’t seen noth in’ yet— gon na treat you right.

It’s just you and me.

Child, you’re a (F)beau ty.”

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

I just (F5)play a (Am)long.

I lie (F5)there (Am)and breathe,

lie (F5)there (Am)and breathe.

I wan na be strong, want the (Am)world to find out

that you’re (F5)dream in’ (Am)on me,

me (F5)and my (Am)“beau ty,”

me (F5)and my (Am)“beau ty.” You say all (F)beau ty.”

There is a part I can’t tell

’bout the dark I know well.

There is a part I can’t tell

’bout the dark I know well.

There is a part I can’t tell

’bout the dark I know well.

There is a part I can’t tell

’bout the dark I know well.
