Tonight

Tonight I have no strength left

Tonight I watch the planes fly

Tonight I am empty as a barrel

Tonight the sky is full of stars

Tonight I'd like the time to stop

Tonight the emotions are gone

Tonight I was a horse by the shore

Tonight I want to forget words

Tonight I'll eat some Greek olives

Tonight I need a rest from dreams

Tonight I'll be as I have always been

Tonight the sun had a dip in the sea

Tonight I will fall asleep very late

Tonight I may cry as a spoiled child

Tonight I would just like your hug

Tonight I will go out for a long run

Tonight I am missing my parents care

Tonight I would like to have your love

Tonight I'd like to listen to kind words

Tonight a talk with a friend won't work

Tonight even the moon is not enough

Tonight my pillow will take care of me

Tonight... is just not like any other night

Oh, it's a bloody monthly night, tonight.

29th of July 2017, Rome
