The city light blinks through
As we speed pass the freeway
Your cigarette light
Burned through the night
Like thoughts running empty in reasons
You turn on the stereo
Steve Conte sings heaven’s not enough
For the last time
As you break the silence with your tears
On the 2nd verse,
You said, you couldn’t understand the facts,
You said I have shit full of reasons to come up
But none of them will make sense…
None will ever make sense.
Dried up mascara
Floating in between tears and sweat
Through your blurry hazel cloud eyes
The night became a serenade of hate and love
In a dance I can no longer follow.
I stop by the nearest parking lot
Open the windows
And lit up a fag
The silence was dark
And even if I look away
I can still see you crying
This time
After a long time,
I too cried.
There were a million reasons
I can think of that night
A lot of bullshit I can feed you
A lot of lies I can easily make
Same spiels
Same candy coated reasons
After that, as always
I can always walk away
Clean
But for some struck of guilt
Or a hard hit in the head, maybe.
Words failed me,
And there I was
Telling you everything
The way it should be…
The way I never did.
Hours past
This time Toshiro Masuda is singing
As the night found us quietly staring
In between blinks of a blinded neon sign,
You looked up
And our eyes meet
For one last time
We kissed
For one last time
We held each other’s arm
And for the last time
We made love…
Inside this unforgiving city
Within the blinding lights
Amidst the people around us
With all the noise outside
We didn’t care.
Nothing mattered anymore,
We made love like it was the 1st time
We made love like when we were young
We made love like it was July all over…
As our tears pass on to our lips
We made love…
The city light blinks through
As we speed pass the freeway
It’s close to 12:00 am,
And its time for me to leave,
You got out the car
And kissed me by the window as you bid goodnight
Your kiss felt like summer dawn
Like a romance ending in a good tune of farewell
But there were no goodbyes
There were no last words said
No more explanations
No more lies
No more sugar coated reasons
Just a smile…
That was all I got from you,
I tried to not to look back
But I couldn’t
4years has it been?
And after all that
It ends to this…
Not as dramatic as I expected
But it was grand as anyone can wish for
I never thought of myself as the right one for you
Maybe this is best for us
Paris as we both use to say
Ends by the bridge with fireworks
Dancing and hands letting go…
Ciao bella~
