Watching her, strolling in the night
So white. Wondering,
Why it's only after dark?

In her eyes a distant fire light
Burns bright. Wondering,
Why it's only after dark?

I find myself in her room,
Feel the fever of my doom.
Falling, falling through the floor.
I'm knocking on the devil's door, yeah!

In the dawn I wake up to find
Her. Gone… And a note
Says: «Only after dark».

Burning, burning in the flame.
Now I know her secret name.
You can tear her temple down,
But she'll be back [bad word] again, yeah!

In my heart a deep and dark and lonely part
Wants her and waits for after dark.
After dark…
After dark…
After dark…
