Good night, rest well
I said to you every night I lived
A kiss on the forehead
I gave to you holding my heart in a pinch
Your tender sweet smell
My sons, for you I gave my very self
I walk the streets at night
Hoping to one day I find
Your ever loving faces
Telling me “daddy, we are back”
I walk a dark path
Because the truth is, without you im lost
I dance a line which vanishes
The moment I close my eyes.
My soul cries every morning
Because I dont get to wake up by you
I drown myself at night, knowing
Knowing I can never get you back
My angels I wonder
I hope with every last breath I grasp,
I ponder moment after moment
For the moment I lost you
Took away the sanity I once had.
Night after night I shelter
In the last few corners i have
My babies, my boys
Ill once more hold you closely
Im trying to make my way back.
You got taken away from me
The truth is, i had no fighting chance
There are demons around us
And someday youll rest
Knowing they took you away from me
While I begged and begged and begged.
I wish I could hold you
I wish, I wish
Hold you near me
Sing to you one last time
I wish my loving rocco and tili
For you own my heart
And my every beating beat.
