tonight

tonight

she held it like it was her own
but she was gone before i ever knew
it’s me that’s curled up and alone
just like i’m the sole devotion of you
and she kissed my head
and it was as if i’d never been kissed before
and even if i had
i don’t need that

but i wonder what she’s doing tonight
and i wonder if she made it all right

and to this place that i once called my home
i bid a fond farewell to you all
we stood together
now we stand alone
we stood together like alone we fall
and i left behind
and it was as if i’d never been there before
but even if i had
i don’t need that

but i wonder what they’re doing tonight
and i wonder which way is goodbye

and she sings
"li di di di di la da di di di di di
take these tired wings upon the summer wind and fly"

and i could wish that i could say that
but i can’t fall or cry for you anymore
