Whistlin' In The Dark Lyrics


Janiva Magness Whistlin' In The Dark


When you held me, you know you held me so right now
I feel like nothing could hurt me, in the middle of the night
Well I suppose, if I was telling the truth now
There'll be no way, for me to get over you, oh no
But I'll keep pretending, I'll just keep on pretending
And whistlin in the dark, aha

When I was a baby child, I'd always run away and hide ... truth
I was thinking, they could never know how much I cried
Those days are long gone, but some nights I still feel the same
I know you're leaving and I think maybe I only got myself to blame
But I'll keep pretending, I'll just keep on pretending
I'll just keep on pretending
Whistlin in the dark

[Guitar solo]

I know I should have seen it
We were so high and we fell so slow
And you tried, you tried to tell me
But I didn't want to know
I don't wanna know, oh
So I'll keep pretending, I'll just keep on pretending
I'll just keep on pretending
Whistlin in the dark.
