Love of mine some day you will die 
But I'll be close behind 
I'll follow you into the dark 

No blinding light or tunnels to gates of white 
Just our hands clasped so tight 
Waiting for the hint of a spark 
If heaven and [bad word] decide 
That they both are satisfied 
Illuminate the no's on their vacancy signs 

If there's no one beside you 
When your soul embarks 
Then I'll follow you into the dark 

In Catholic school as vicious as [bad word] 
I got my knuckles [bad word] by a lady in black 
And I held my toungue as she told me 
"Son fear is the heart of love" 
So I never went back 

If heaven and [bad word] decide 
That they both are satisfied 
Illuminate the no's on their 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 everything to see 
From Bangkok to Calgary 
And the soles of your shoes are all worn down 
The time for sleep is now 
It's nothing to cry about 
Cause we'll hold each other soon 
In the blackest of rooms 

If heaven and [bad word] decide 
That they both are satisfied 
Illuminate the no's on their vacancy signs 

If there's no one beside you 
When your soul embarks 
Then I'll follow you into the dark 
Then I'll follow you into the dark
