Walking alone through these deserted streets Through everlasting shadows and still silences The night sky is filled with stars Slightly illuminating the pathways in which I walk silently
A raven starts to cackle and caw Bouncing off the surrounding stone walls Footsteps through alleyways and laughing ensues As the dark city starts to come alive with drunks and ******
I pick up my wandering pace To find somewhere to sleep for the night It’s nights like these I wish you were here To protect me and offer me shelter
Feelings of loneliness creep over me I pass windows and see happy families cuddled together They are safe on the inside And I am in danger wandering these streets
But I’ve got no home, I left it behind I threw it away, now I’m unwelcome Left to beg now for food and money And sleeping alone in the cold
People show up this time of night The old men smile and they reach for me Darting from strangers that pass me I don’t know where else to turn to
But hope washes over me suddenly As I approach a familiar shadow among the others Underneath the streetlight Is the one I have wanted to find
We are reunited as you kiss me softly I feel safe in your arms again I feel like nothing will hurt me You whisper, ‘Come home to me, my Belle.’
