Will you spare me when the going gets rough
Retrieving secrets from the shadows of love
A kiss in the park
A faint smile in the dark
Why do we always escape
Does it show now
When the danger's nearby
We lose our hearts with just a wink of the eye
Or does it begin with the walls closing in
So book me for passion or rape
Guilt just like a tattoo
If you only knew
The forces that drive me there
Love is like a tattoo
If you only knew
I've been dreaming we were careless and free
So sweet a smile I thought I'd never be lonely again
Why do we wake up from a dream so real
And why do I always leave home
So happy for just a minute or two
We were dancings like ghosts making wishes come true
I know given time we'll miss the thrill of the crime
And meet where the fugitives roam
Guilt just like a tattoo
If you only knew
The forces that drive me there
Love is like a tattoo
If you only knew
When she loses her tail
You know she'll grow another
We meet in the dark
And watch the lizards crawl
Down to the basement
And up to the wall
We meet in the dark
Meet in the dark
