Martha:
There is a part I can't tell
About the dark I know well
You say, "Time for bed now, child,"
Mom just smiles that smile—
Just like she never saw me.
Just like she never saw me...
So, I leave, wantin' just to hide.
Knowin' deep inside
You are comin' to me.
You are comin' to me...
You say all you want
Is just a kiss goodnight,
And then you hold me,
And you whisper,
"Child, the Lord won't mind.
It's just you and me.
Child, you're a beauty."
"God, it's good—the lovin'—
Ain't it good tonight?
You ain't seen nothin' yet—
Gonna treat you right.
It's just you and me.
Child, you're a beauty."
Ilse:
I don't scream,
Though I know it's wrong.
I just play along.
I lie there and breathe.
Lie there and breathe...
I wanna be strong—
I want the world to find out
That you're dreamin' on me,
Me and my "beauty."
Both:
Me and my "beauty"...
You say all you want
Is just a kiss goodnight,
And then you hold me
And you whisper,
"Child, the Lord won't mind.
It's just you and me.
Child, you're a beauty."
"God, it's good—the lovin'—
Ain't it good tonight?
You ain't seen nothin' yet—
Gonna teach you right.
It's just you and me.
Child you're a beauty."
There is a part I can't tell
About the dark I know well.
There is a part I can't tell
About the dark I know well.
There is a part I can't tell
About the dark I know well.
There is a part I can't tell
About the dark I know well...
There is a part I can't tell
About the dark I know well
You say, "Time for bed now, child,"
Mom just smiles that smile—
Just like she never saw me.
Just like she never saw me...
So, I leave, wantin' just to hide.
Knowin' deep inside
You are comin' to me.
You are comin' to me...
You say all you want
Is just a kiss goodnight,
And then you hold me,
And you whisper,
"Child, the Lord won't mind.
It's just you and me.
Child, you're a beauty."
"God, it's good—the lovin'—
Ain't it good tonight?
You ain't seen nothin' yet—
Gonna treat you right.
It's just you and me.
Child, you're a beauty."

You say all you want

"God, it's good—the lovin'—

Child you're a beauty."
There is a part I can't tell
About the dark I know well.
There is a part I can't tell
About the dark I know well.
There is a part I can't tell
About the dark I know well.
There is a part I can't tell
About the dark I know well...
