I'll Cry Tonight |
I’ll cry tonight |
Night is the enemy |
Poisons the memory |
Martyrs it secretly |
Midnight comes too fast |
It comes too silently |
The moon has no mercy now |
To live anymore |
One day the rains will come |
And wash away the tears |
Sunlight will fade the years |
Midnight comes too fast |
And I don’t want |
The night to last |
Shadows on the glass |
Faces in window panes |
Old lace and picture frames |
Rattle their ancient chains |
Midnight will surprise |
Moonlight at the door |
The night has a thousand eyes |
And i don’t know why |
To live any more |
They told me how you loved me When I finally got the bravery |
To look beyond these prison walls |
And shadows hanging over me I cannot find a way to be |
A lover for your life, although |
They tell me it comes easily |
I somehow cannot let the seasons pass |
Without demanding that they last |
And though I know forever well, |
I also know my private hell |
Silent voices in the night |
They are crying- Sacrifice |
One day the rains will come |
And wash away the years |
Sunlight will fade the tears |
Midnight comes too fast |
And I don’t want |
The night to last |
