After Dark
ОТ ЗАКАТА ДО РАССВЕТА_TITO & TARANTULA Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Watching her
Strolling in the night so white
Wondering why
It's only after dark

In her eyes
A distant fire light burns bright
Wondering why
It's only after dark

I find myself in her room
Feel the fever of my doom
Falling falling
Through the floor
I'm knocking on the devil's door, yeah

In the dawn
I wake up to find her gone
And the note
Says, "Only after dark"

Burning, burning in the flame
Now I know her secret name
You can tear her temple down
But she'll be back and rule again, yeah

In my heart
A deep and dark and lonely part
Wants her
And waits for after dark
After dark




After dark
After dark

Watching her
Observing a woman


Strolling in the night so white
Walking leisurely in the bright night


Wondering why
Questioning the reason


It's only after dark
Actions happen only in the cover of darkness


In her eyes
Noticing the expression in her gaze


A distant fire light burns bright
A source of desire is felt from afar


I find myself in her room
Discovering oneself within her private space


Feel the fever of my doom
Experiencing the intense fate of passion


Falling falling
Sinking deeper and deeper


Through the floor
Falling through the barrier of safety and control


I'm knocking on the devil's door yeah
Reaching the boundary of danger and recklessness


In the dawn
During sunrise


I wake up to find her gone
Realizing she has left


And the note
A message


Says "only after dark"
Emphasizing the need for secrecy and discretion


Burning burning in the flame
Intensifying the desire to be consumed by her passion


Now I know her secret name
Discovering her true identity


You can tear her temple down
Attempting to destroy her world


But she'll be back and rule again yeah
Despite the attempt, she will reclaim her power


In my heart a deep and dark
Sensing an intense and overwhelming feeling


And lonely part
A feeling of isolation


Wants her and waits for
Desiring her presence and anticipating her return


After dark
When the cover of night falls


After dark
When actions of passion can take place


After dark
When secrets and desires reveal themselves


After dark
When the power of her passion takes over

Искренне благодарен за Вашу поддержку! Спасибо большое за совет! Так как я, в основном, играю на классической гитаре, планирую делать новую запись в декабре этого года со своей фантазией, но уже с барабанным ритмом. Работаю над ритмами. Надеюсь, Вам понравится. Еще раз спасибо! До встречи! Мои наилучшие пожелания!
