Am7 Fm7
I was standing on the edge of something real
Dm7 E7
But every time I felt it getting close
Am7 Fm7
I would turn around and disappear
Dm7 E7
Before my heart could show
Dm7
You saw the silence in my eyes
Am7
You heard the words I couldn't say
Fm7
But every time you reached for me
E7
I slowly walked away
Am7
It wasn't you I was afraid of
Fm7
It was everything I felt
Dm7
Loving you meant opening the parts I always kept
E7
Hidden in the dark
Am7 Fm7 Dm7 E7
Hidden in the dark

I was running from the truth (truth)
Fm7
Even when I needed you (you)
Dm7
Every road I tried to take
E7
Was leading back to you
Am7
I was hiding from the light
Fm7
Of something strong and true
Dm7
But every beat inside my chest
E7
Was always choosing you
Am7
It wasn't you I was afraid of
Fm7
It was everything I felt
Dm7
Loving you meant opening the parts I always kept

Hidden in the dark
