Burt Bacharach - Painted From Memory lyrics

In the darkest place In the darkest place I know That is where you'll find me Even though you didn't have to remind me I shut out the light Your eyes adjust They'll never be the same You know i love you so Let's start again Since you put me down It seems I've been very gloomy You may laugh But pretty girls look right through me They don't sense the pain just glimmering That is the torch i bear There's light enough for me to find my way But i only have to tell myself that by now you could be with someone Else There's no light beneath your door and laughter from within Do your friends come around saying, "try to find another lover" He won't love you like i do In the darkest place I'm lost I have abandoned every hope Maybe you'll understand I must shut out the light
