After Dark, words and lyrics by Renes BBWI © 2020


Hey as the summer hits back again
Everybody feels like royalty
The recipe for happiness is to make your life taste like you want it to be
I go down where the fun is
Where the players are all dressed to please
Something’s happening over there
Like the three wise kings they’ve all come to see
Who’s that girl people talking about
I took a few steps backwards to have a better perspective
And observe the scene in front of me
The flash of the cameras seemed to reproduce the creation of the big bang
She was dancing on a tune by Kool and the gang
And it wasn’t ladies night

And when it’s hot outside I try to find somewhere to hide
Oh girl you blow my mind I wanna take you for a ride
Gimme a chance to say I don’t believe in foul play
For many days your mind seems to be far away
Sometimes you want me sometimes you don’t
Sometimes you’re glad and sometimes you’re mad
Sometimes you’re happy you’re sometimes angry
Sometimes you’re sweet beyond words
Sometimes you call me you never bore me
Sometimes your action shows compassion
Your absence is becoming a fashion
And it is beyond reason

Let’s go for a stroll along the beach, up in the hill
Holding hands gazing at the sun setting in the horizon until it rises again in the morning

I know what it is that you want me to do
I know what it is that’s in your mind baby
I know what it is that you want me to do
I know I know I know I know I know I know
I know I know I know I know I know I know
I know what it is that you want me to do
I know what it is that’s in your mind baby
I know what it is that you want me to do
I know I know I know I know I know I know
I know I know I know I know

Let us take a walk in the park
Until it’s late after dark
Let’s get a tan while we lay in the sun
Until it’s late after dark
Let’s take a walk in the park
Until it’s late after dark
Let’s get a tan while we lay in the sun
Until it’s late after dark
