Moonlight Baths

Better days in distant places
Moonlight baths and hidden traces

Of a love we tried so hard to erase
Of a laughter slowly turning into pain

Honesty may be a lonely word
But in your eyes I always felt at home

We had no time to realize that we we're doomed to fail
And now all I used to care about feels empty, cold and dead

I wish I had the strength it takes
To walk away and forget your face, your smile, your name

But all I do Is write you songs
You will never hear although I scream with all my strength
How much more you think that I can bear?

I tell myself that I'll forget you
I wish to God I knew it were true

We had no time to realize that we we're doomed to fail
And now all I used to care about feels empty, cold and dead

I fear and pray that comes the day
On which the shadows of oblivion carry away
Those summer nights of painful joy
And that all left standing will be a subtle twinge
And a wistful smile at the mention of your name
