Amy Millan - I Will Follow You Into The Dark Lyrics

Love of mine, someday you will die
I will be close behind, follow you into the dark
No blinding light or tunnels to gates of white
Our hands clasped so tight, waiting for the inch of a spark

If heaven and hell decide that they both are satisfied
Illuminate the NOs on our vacancy signs
If there's no one beside you when your soul embarks
Then I'll follow you into the dark

Catholic school, vicious as Roman rule
I got my knuckles bruised by a lady in black
I held my tongue as she told me "Son, fear is the heart of love"
So I never went back

If heaven and hell decide that they both are satisfied
Illuminate the NOs on our vacancy signs
If there's no one beside you when your soul embarks
Then I'll follow you into the dark

You and me have seen all there is to see
Bangkok to Calgary, and the souls of our shoes
Are all worn down, the time for sleep is now
Nothing to cry about 'cause we'll hold each other soon
In the blackest of rooms

Heaven and hell decide that they both are satisfied
Illuminate the NOs on their vacancy signs
If there's no one beside you when your soul embarks
I'll follow you into the dark, I'll follow into the dark
