Lady of the Night

Lady of the Night

Lady of the night

I can hear your smile.

I can sense your soul

Sleeping in the cold.

You thought you got rid of the noise

Just by hiding from it all,

But everything came back to you

When you found yourself alone.

No comfort inside,

No shoulder to cry on.

A search for peace of mind

and nothing to rely on.

You seek help with a laugh,

Human contact to feel alive.

Too many worthless tries,

You feel you are going to die.

Lady of the night,

I love you,

So tell me what to do

For the darkness not to consume you.

We could trick the shady night,

Forget about time

By staying up all night

Until the sun comes up;

Hold hands and jump,

Slide.

Kiss hello, not goodbye,

And dance.
