What Happens in the Dark Lyrics

In the quiet of the night, under the moon's pale glare

Secrets hidden tight, only shadows are aware

Whispers ride the winds, through the old oak trees

Silhouettes 'round every bend, ghosts of memories

The barn doors gently creak, lantern's golden glow

Footsteps slow and sleek, where only the darkness knows

Lovers' rendezvous, promises and lies

Can't escape the truth, seen through watchful eyes

What happens in the dark, comes out in the light

No place for hiding hearts, when the dawn is shining bright

In the stillness of the night, we think we're out of sight

But what happens in the dark, oh, it always meets daylight

John down at the bar, keeps his secrets close

Thinks he's gone too far, but soon enough they'll show

Sarah's whispered tears, pressed against the night

Every hurt and every fear, they can't stand up to light

When morning breaks, the truth unfolds

Every promise kept or every lie that's told

Underneath the sun's reveal, nothing can remain concealed

The dawn brings clarity, turning fiction into real

So tread carefully, knowing all that's at stake

In the shadows, history awaits to be reshaped

Every deed done in haste is bound to see the sun

You can't outrun the past, its race is always won
