NOSTALGIA
Last night, I watched the moon alone
And its glow reminded me o’ you
Beautiful, bright and dominant
Last night, I got stuck in the past
Entangled as a bird in lime twigs
The moon glowed way into the night
And I, her cold company kept
I heard your voice in the wind
And it gently warmed my heart
But for some reason, it also killed me inside
Dark and Still, my mood blended
Perfectly with the night’s
So I closed my eyes and thought o’ you
A nightingale sang and mocked my grief
Memories o’ you ran through my head
And I could swear I saw your face
Smelt your hair and felt your skin
But Soon, the moon faded, and you with her
Cold and lonely; nostalgic and empty
I missed the way it feels around you
And its glow reminded me o’ you
Beautiful, bright and dominant
Last night, I got stuck in the past
Entangled as a bird in lime twigs
The moon glowed way into the night
And I, her cold company kept
I heard your voice in the wind
And it gently warmed my heart
But for some reason, it also killed me inside
Dark and Still, my mood blended
Perfectly with the night’s
So I closed my eyes and thought o’ you
A nightingale sang and mocked my grief
Memories o’ you ran through my head
And I could swear I saw your face
Smelt your hair and felt your skin
But Soon, the moon faded, and you with her
Cold and lonely; nostalgic and empty
I missed the way it feels around you
