I wrote this one night
at Casuarina
thinking about that Korean.
I still miss her actually.
Tonight
======
On a night like this
when clouds were few, and stars shimmered
the night wind pulled her to me
I kissed her again, lightly tenderly
held her tight
and would never let go
under the immense skies
On a night like this
when clouds were few, and stars shimmered
my arms were empty
my sould cried its despair
for my love could not keep her
love is short
but memories go on
forever
On a night like this
when clouds were few, and stars shimmered
I write
as Mozart softly purrs
Memories haunt
like an ancient curse
under the immense skies
made more immense
without her
