THE TRAGICALLY HIP
"Here, In The Dark"
(Rob Baker / Gordon Edgar Downie / Johnny Fay / Paul Langlois / Gord Sinclair)

I have a thought that consoles me
A glow within
Whatever thought that consoles me
A light, pale, thin

[Pre-Chorus 1:]
When I'm wild and lonely, in a winter mind
And I cannot become
Wild and loyal in a winter mind
What I want to become

[Chorus 1:]
'Cause I had your love, I took it into my heart
But my life was in my mind and yours was in your arms
And the thought that consoles me is just a star
I am in the dark

I have the dream that you told me
Hidden within
Just a dumb little dream that you told me
Probably nothin'

[Pre-Chorus 2:]
Where I'm wild and lonely, in a winter mind
And slowly I become
Less wild and loyal to the winter mind
What I want to become

[Chorus 2:]
I have your love, I take it into my heart
With my life in my mind, and yours in your arms
And the dream that you told me is so safe and warm
Here, in the dark

[Pre-Chorus 3:]
Wild and lonely, in a winter mind
I cannot become
Wild and loyal to the winter mind
What I want to become

[Chorus 3:]
When I had your love and took it into my heart
And life in my mind and yours in your arm
And that thought that consoled me is that you aren't
Here, in the dark
Here, in the dark
Here, in the dark
Here, in the dark

[Bridge:]
Okay, here it is, the chaotic first sip of loneliness
The flame that flicks and pretty soon I want more of it
The happiness and its restlessness
And me, I'm as happy as my least happy kid...
