Sweetheart, are you down here?

Have you lead me astray?

Baby, will you please appear

And tell me you're okay?

There's something in this darkness

And it's broad and black as night;

Baby, will you please appear

And tell me you're alright?

Please answer, can you hear me?

Can you feel me breathing in?

I love you most completely

But will this love end in sin?

Something's taken up residence

Deep inside my heart

I love you most completely

Will you tell me where to start?

Baby, am I close to you?

Have I come all this way for naught?

I feel so lost apart from you

Is this not what I thought?

Something's taken hold of me

And shaken me to doubt

I feel so lost apart from you

And your love that I'm without

Sweetheart, are you down here?

Will you please give me a sign?

I see a light at the bottom, dear

Will you tell me you're still mine?

There's something in the brightness

That makes me turn away

I see a light at the bottom, dear

It tells me It's okay.
