Footsteps              
             
Footsteps in the dark 
Only love will break your heart 
Footsteps, footsteps 

Whenever trouble comes around 
Or lonely nights lead underground 
And far in the dark 
Abandoned cars suddenly start up 
An anxious sound 
As long as I hear your footsteps 
In the dark that's all I need 

Footsteps in the dark 
Only love will break your heart 
Footsteps, footsteps 

When loneliness induces fear 
Like waves against a 
Ramshackle pier 
When thunder and rain 
Scar the windowpane once again 
I want you near 
As long as I hear your footsteps 
In the dark that's all I need 

I'm longing to see you 
I want you, I need you 

Like a child who feels afraid 
Of the dark at night 
Hoping to hear a gentle touch 
Turning on a welcome light 
As long as I hear your footsteps 
In the dark that's all I need 
As long as I hear your footsteps 
In the dark that's all I need 

Footsteps in the dark 
Only love will break your heart 
Footsteps, footsteps 
Footsteps in the dark 
Only love will break your heart 
Footsteps, footsteps
