Night Shine

She walked with me one night

Holding my hand

We counted the stars

We gave them names

The rain didn’t matter

The moon didn’t care

The headlights from cars

Made us blink

And I think

At that moment

I was in love

With you

Winter is a blade

That cuts so deep

I ignored this

Just to see you in my sleep

I recall every minute of that night

I can still smell your hair

I can still see your eyes

The years have flown fast

Since the goodbye kiss

Of all the things in this world

I still miss

You
