Fear Of The Dark
Steve Harris
          I am a man who walks alone
       And when I'm walking a dark road
    At night or strolling through the park

       When the light begins to change
      I sometimes feel a little strange
       A little anxious when it's dark

      Fear of the dark, fear of the dark
     I have constant fear that something's
                 always near
      Fear of the dark, fear of the dark
        I have a phobia that someone's
                always there

        Have you run your fingers down
                  the wall
    And have you felt your neck skin crawl
     When you're searching for the light?
         Sometimes when you're scared
               to take a look
          At the corner of the room
        You've sensed that something's
                watching you

       Have you ever been alone at night
      Thought you heard footsteps behind
     And turned around and no one's there?
        And as you quicken up your pace
        You find it hard to look again
         Because you're sure there's
                someone there

     Watching horror films the night before
        Debating witches and folklores
       The unknown troubles on your mind
       Maybe your mind is playing tricks
       You sense, and suddenly eyes fix
        On dancing shadows from behind

      Fear of the dark, fear of the dark
     I have constant fear that something's
                 always near
      Fear of the dark, fear of the dark
        I have a phobia that someone's
                always there

        When I'm walking a dark road
         I am a man who walks alone
