Lionella

days are running out of sun

it’s too dark for an afternoon

sometimes i feel alone

with her in the room

naked on a red coloured bed

in silence we lie

except she’s not quite there to see the flowers die

she put her angel wings back on

an innocence to fake & off she took to lisbon

& off she takes into the night

lionella, lionella, your lips start to shake

lionella, lionella, i even love the way you say goodbye

i’m running out of steps

she rides the wind above the roofs

black clouds will dance with her

to a song composed by the moon

i stray within her maze

inside i feel the rain

it’s coming down on me

i’ll never find a way

she’s out there, i’m here

& the silence between

lionella, lionella, your lips start to shake

lionella, lionella, i even love the way you say goodbye
