I'm Afraid of the Dark

Hey, baby

What you mean come over there? This time of night?

I have to go through the alley to get there, and I'm afraid of the dark, baby

Hey, baby

You sure look good

You said you want me to love ya

Well, all that's good

But baby, if you married, I'm not with it

Or if you have another man, baby, you might as well forget it

I dig

I don't like taking chances with my love, my life, and my heart

So you must understand, baby, that, that I'm afraid of the dark

Yes I am

I'm afraid of sneaking 'hind, uh

Hey, baby

Now ain't you mine?

I wanna be yours, and I can see you wanna be mine

But if you belong to another guy, baby, we can't make it

'Cause I love living, and I sure can't fake it

It's true I dig you, baby, with all of my heart

But you must understand, baby, that, that I'm afraid of the dark

Yes I am

Don't wanna be sneakin' and hidin', oh no

Girl, I dig ya

But how in the world can I love you when I got to be lookin'

All behind my back and all that kind of carryin' on?

I'm afraid of the dark, baby

Ain't no telling who's back there in that alley back there

The giant bull moose or anybody might be back there, baby

Please don't make me come back down that alley

I love ya, but I just can't do it, baby

Please don't make me come back there

Oh Lord, now here you go again, now you started on talkin'
