Sometimes in the Dark

I'm lookin' for good news
I'm hangin' around
A fresh lead and some new clues
And one ear to the ground
'Cause I've seen gloom
As common as rain
The worst in a sad slide
Is when I fail to see beyond the frame

Sometimes in the dark
Between streets, in alleys
An alibi can come undone
When the picture is enhanced
Some light on the subject
Is enough to keep me pushin' on

Gone deep cover
Not takin' the fall
The best kept of all secrets
Is no secret at all
'Cause I've seen liars
Thicker than thieves
Clouding the picture
So watch your step when everyone agrees

Sometimes in the dark
Between streets, in alleys
An alibi can come undone
When the picture is enhanced
Some light on the subject
Is enough to keep me pushin' on

And sometimes in the dark
It feels a little scary
Never know if help is near or far
And shadows make the smallest things
A little bigger than they are

[laughing]
And they are
Just a little bigger than they are
Than they are

Bump, stumblin' around
Stumblin' around
Bump, stumblin' around
Stumblin' I found

I've got news
And it's just fine
And the darkest of dark times
Still can't erase this little light of mine

Sometimes in the dark
Between streets, in alleys
An alibi can come undone
When the picture is enhanced
Some light on the subject
Is enough to keep me pushin' on

And sometimes in the dark
It feels a little scary
Never know if help is near or far
And shadows make the smallest things
A little bigger than they are

Sometimes in the dark
Things look a little bigger than they are
Sometimes in the dark
Things look a little bigger than they are
Sometimes in the dark
Things look a little bigger than they are
