Cray, Robert - Don't Be Afraid Of The Dark Lyrics






Dead of the night baby
We're finally alone
I'll pull up the shades
If you'll unplug the phone

Put on some music
Marvin Gaye's real nice
Once we get settled
I'll turn off the lights

Don't be afraid of the dark
Don't be afraid of the dark
I'll be there to hold you
Don't be afraid of the dark

It might be scary
Til your eyes adjust
Don't fear the shadows
Me you can trust

I'm at my best
In a pitch black room
Hold on tight baby
You'll feel the power soon

Don't be afraid of the dark
Don't be afraid of the dark
I'll be there to hold you
Don't be afraid of the dark
I'll be there to hold you
Don't be afraid of the dark

You might tremble
You might shake
Scream out loud
You may even pray

I know which moves
Suit you right
You'll beg for more
You'll forget about the night

Don't be afraid of the dark
Baby, no, no
I'll be there to hold you
Don't be afraid of the dark
I'll be there to hold you
Don't be afraid of the dark
Don't be afraid of the dark
Baby, no, no
I'll be there to hold you
Don't be afraid of the dark
I'll be there to hold you
Don't be afraid of the dark
Hey, baby, no, no, no
I'll be there to hold you
Don't be afraid of the dark

    Saw Robert Cray Band in Christchurch, New Zealand in the late 80's, awesome concert. Waited to see Stevie Ray, as he always came over; he had a kiwi girlfriend and then he done gone got himself killed whilst I was in the States. That would have to be my biggest regret.

  30. A.... G....

    Robert Cray is a genuine blues and r&b artist. I seen him at the LA forum in 1990 and he blew the concert away. He was tipsy on booze but he held his self and jammed the fk out on stage. He truly is a very awesome down home blues picker on that les Paul of his. But my mans is Stevie Ray Vaughn. Unless someone comes along and plays a guitar better than Stevie RIP. The legend lives on. Truly wish SRV was still with us but hes doing many performances for God. Amen🙏🙏

  31. B.... D....

    My husband sang this for me at our wedding. Even though we're both in our 20s our parents always instilled good music into us ❤

  48. c.... v....

    Awesome

  49. T.... B....

    Of course most blues guitarists are in it for the right reasons and are constantly honing their craft, vocally speaking, many are just average singers. ROBERT CRAY IS NOT ONLY AN EXCEPTIONAL GUITARIST WHO NEVER OVERPLAYS AND HAS A GIFT FOR GREAT MELODY - DUDE CAN SING HIS ASS OFF! DOUBLE THREAT-GET EVERYTHING HE'S PRODUCED!

  50. B.... F....

    I still listen to this song on cassette...yep, my car has a cassette player...old skool

  57. 7.... R....

    Stevie Ray Vaughn and Charlie Pride ..... simultaneous mitosis into a singularity ...yep that explains it.

  58. o.... n....

    The intro reminds me of : " Harlem Shuffle " by Bob and Earl. Rolling Stones performed it also

    ...In Old Eugene we used to catch Robert Cray and Curtis Salgado in a little hole in the wall called the Down Under. It was a tradition with the ladies to wear a sheer shorty nightie tucked into some tight jeans...A higher plane...Eugene in the day...

  66. l.... a....

    "..i'll be there to hold you...don't be afraid of the dark...." such nice words...for someone to tell you...when you are alone...you feel alone...you are in the dark for such a long time....amazing Robert Cray....and the guitars too.
