[Verse 1]
Don't send me no angel
This city's too cold
Cause I need a man with a black heart of gold
(Whoa-oh-ooh-ohh)
Don't give me no lover
If he ain't got the stones
Cause I need a man who will fight for his own
(Whoa-oh-ooh-ohh)

[Chorus]
I've seen dark nights
Whoa-oh, dark nights
But only the darkest light can deliver my love
(Whoa-oh-ooh-ohh)
I've seen dark nights
Whoa-oh, dark nights
But only the darkest light can deliver my soul
(Whoa-oh-ooh, whoa-oh-ooh-ohh)

[Verse 2]
Can't take the fire (can't take the fire)
'Til you've fallen from grace (Whoa-oh-oh-ooooh)
Cause I need a man, a man who's got blood on his hands
And the truth on his face
[Chorus]
I've seen dark nights
Whoa-oh, dark nights
But only the darkest light can deliver my love
(Whoa-oh-ooh-oh)
I've seen dark nights
Whoa-oh, dark nights
But only the darkest light can deliver my soul
(Whoa-oh-ooh, whoa-oh-ooh-oh)

Dark nights
Dark nights

[Instrumental Solo]

[Outro]
Well, I've seen dark nights
Whoa-oh, dark nights
But only the darkest light can deliver my soul
(Whoa-oh-ooh)
(Whoa-oh-ooh)
(Whoa-oh-ooh)
Whoa-oh-ooh-oh
