I am drowning in my manuscript’s latest draft and in the holidays, so this week’s Musical Monday is the soul of brevity. Please enjoy…
This song is for every loving, impossible to keep night, the ones that you’ll remember even with your last breath. We all (if we are lucky) get that one perfect moment that we know will never be repeated, no matter how much we might wish it otherwise.
I am not the only traveler Who has not repaid his debt I’ve been searching for a trail to follow again Take me back to the night we met
And then I can tell myself What the hell I’m supposed to do And then I can tell myself Not to ride along with you
I had all and then most of you Some and now none of you Take me back to the night we met I don’t know what I’m supposed to do Haunted by the ghost of you Oh, take me back to the night we met
When the night was full of terrors And your eyes were filled with tears When you had not touched me yet Oh, take me back to the night we met
I had all and then most of you Some and now none of you Take me back to the night we met I don’t know what I’m supposed to do Haunted by the ghost of you Take me back to the night we met
