Sleep escapes my body this beautiful night of the moon

Today is gone till tomorrow’s dawn

I’m feeling full of my room

Pretty pictures shuddered here

An open window

A cloudy tear

Memories fight on the bloody front line

Kissing, calling in time, sublime

Fruitless vines climb upon my mind

I close my eyes and try again

Where is your face?

What was your name?

4 A.M. and the secrets aren’t clear

Visions squashed and swallowed year after year

I thought the light sweet and guiding my needs

I thought life complete

Until I met you

Now I am lonely

Now I am sad

Now I’m not glad for the things that I’ve had

Because once I had you

and now you are gone

The days are so long

but the nights, they are longer.
