The Night Is A Tricky Woman

I thought I heard you laughing,

I thought I heard you scream.

I thought I heard you say my name

But it was all a dream.

I thought I saw the morning break,

I thought I saw a bird in flight.

I thought I saw the sun wake up,

But I was being taunted by the night.

I thought I felt your skin on mine,

I thought I felt you sighing.

I thought I felt your breath on me,

But it was just my desperation crying.

And through the snow I saw a light,

Burning slow yet burning bright.

And in that moment I then knew,

That I was now entrapped in you.
