It went down,
Like a flash of lightning,
Couldn’t even hear a sound,
Just the crickets singing,

You stood there,
Your face I couldn’t see,
But strongly pulling me,
I couldn’t even resist.

Where did the lights go?
There was nothing to do,
The silence is deafening,
On a cold dark evening.

The big round moon,
Is beaming outside,
The only sun,
The only light,

Waiting and wanting.
I pulled you closer,
There’s only one thing,
I longed to do.

I reach for your lips,
Darkness bathed your face,
Closer and closer,
I feel you breathing,

I see sparks,
When we kissed in the dark,
Wishing it won’t stop,
Power cut, don’t stop.
