Hey I can't I say that I love you
I cant' say that I don't
I cant say that I couldn't
And I won't say that I won't
But I really like your company
I'm enjoying myself no end
But I can't keep from thinking
Why don't we share the darkness tonight
Make it warm and burning bright
I'll not say nothing
I'll be polite
Why don't we share the darkness tonight
Ta an dorachadas ag teacht anuas
Tar abhaile liom a gra
Ta an dorachadas ag teacht anuas
Tar abhaile liom
Ah life's too short for wasting
For ifs and might have been's
Life's too short for wondering if
You could have lived your dreams
And its way too short for loneliness
We don't have to be
Now that we trust each other
Why don't you stay with me?
Why don't we share the darkness tonight
Make it warm and burning bright
I'll not say nothing
I'll be polite
Why don't we share the darkness tonight
Repeat Gaelic chorus(Brid Dooley)
When the world belongs to distant dogs
And the air is dark and still
And drunken conversations pass beneath the window sill
And there's someone singing
Elvis songs as they make their way back home
and all your fears and worries
attack when you're alone
when you're alone, when you're alone, when you're alone
Why don't we share the darkness tonight
Make it warm and burning bright
I'll not say nothing
I'll be polite
Why don't we share the darkness tonight
Ta an dorachadas ag teacht anuas
Tar abhaile liom a gra
Ta an dorachadas ag teacht anuas
Tar abhaile liom
Why don't we share the darkness tonight
