Thousand Nights
Title: Thousand Nights
(Verse 1)
Temptation struck the moment our eyes met,
No shame — we surrendered, though you kept your secret.
In my burning sheets, in the first light of dawn,
I trace every curve of you till the night is gone.
(Bridge)
I knew every day you lay in another’s arms,
But the fire we share doesn’t echo in yours.
In a heartbeat I gave up everything for you,
So why do you choose him like I never could do?
(Chorus)
All my “I love you” meant nothing at all,
Why say them again if you never let them fall?
The words on your lips, in the dark, soft and tight,
Fade into silence with the truth in the light.
(Verse 2)
Stolen laughter, the touch we had to hide,
Left scars I carry deep inside.
Then your cold wind came and pushed me away,
One glance, one smile — and it all slipped away.
(Bridge)
I knew every day you lay in another’s arms,
But the fire we share doesn’t echo in yours.
In a heartbeat I gave up everything for you,
So why do you choose him like I never could do?
(Chorus)
All my “I love you” meant nothing at all,
Why say them again if you never let them fall?
The words on your lips, in the dark, soft and tight,
Fade into silence with the truth in the light.
(Outro)
In daylight I pretend I’ve let you go,
But at night, you’re the only dream I know.
In these sheets, just the ghost of what we had,
You — and a thousand nights that fade to black.
