Don't Leave While It's Still Dark

from Snake Road by Englewood

lyrics

Please, don’t leave while it’s still dark. Please don’t leave while it’s still dark.
Stay with me instead, and later we’ll go to the park.

It’s cold out there, they’re saying it’s going to rain.
It’s cold out there and they’re saying it’s going to rain.
So stay inside with me, you won’t feel no pain.

You know the people out there, they’re mean and they’re tense,
so why do you want to go there.
It just doesn’t make sense for you to leave while it’s still dark.
So just stay inside with me, and later we’ll go to the park.

The streets are dirty and the train is running late.
The streets are dirty and the train is running late.
But if you stay in here with me you know I won’t make you wait.
You know the people out there, they’re tense and they’re mean,
so I don’t understand why you’d want to be seen out there while it’s still dark.
So stay with me instead, and later we’ll walk in the park.

Please, don’t leave while it’s still dark. Baby, please don’t leave while it’s still dark.
But if you’re really going to go, if you’re not going to stay,
if you’re going to just get up, and walk away. Well I’ve just got one thing to say --
I’ll pick you up at six o’clock.
