Bruising Kiss

Oh, but my darling

I will then leave, if I do wish

I’ll flee into the night

You’ve cut me with your bruising kiss

Underneath your stars

The love light fading fast

I’ll take everything we’ve had

And let our past be finally passed

Broken promises

Shattered, little daydreams

When nothing…

Was ever as it seemed

I’ll be somewhere off and away

I will have left you darling

Like moonlight breaking into day

Just once again, lost lover

I will leave you for another

If only for a night

With sunken eyes

And restless, lonely mornings

We begin once again

For my lover is my lover

And my love once more,

I do give.
