All those metaphors you learn in high school

Dark and light is wrong and right it never made sense to me
G#
Here's what I can see:
[Chorus]
D#
You can't see the stars if there's too much light
D#7
Ain't nothing like holding you in the middle of the night
C#
After getting burned by the sun in a hard day's work
D# G#
Baby I'm fine with the dark

C Fm C# A#
Black as the color of my true love's hair
