ROMANCE IN THE DARK Lyrics
Sam Coslow / G. Nelsen Romance in the dark with you All at once I knew Darlin' love was near I thrill to my finger tips I could feel your lips Darlin' oh
Sam Coslow / G. Nelsen Romance in the dark with you All at once I knew Darlin' love was near I thrill to my finger tips I could feel your lips Darlin' oh
In an anonymous rendezvous
Where the forbidden lovers repair
They're burning down another damn candle
They're melting the tables and chairs
