The moon sang in Italian
O’er the Parisian sky
And glitter rained like stars
Kissing, burning, you and I...
The greatest thing
Love paints clouds on rooftop
That only shine after dark
Words create illusion, I fumble
To grasp mysteries of the heart
you’ll ever learn
The Green Fairy danced
On lips and sugar cubes
I took her wings, she let me fly,
Vain as Icarus, fell to you
is just to love
I fear the light of day,
The shattering of this dream
Stay with me in shadows
Don’t wake, don’t scream...
and be loved
Jealous lies, dark desires
Misunderstand my earnesty
Don’t hurt me, it won’t save me
For I am yours eternally
in return.
