“Between the Nights”
© Barbara
(A)
Between the nights I lay down cold
in the darkness of this fold
though I’m never growing old
I’m getting weary
(A)
For I never see the sun
I’m a prowler on the run
taking life from dusk to dawn
my loves get leery
(B)
And it’s all up to me,
If I bite you times three
I’ll suspend your natural end
and spread this cap-tivity
(A)
Between the nights my dreams are bold
of when I lived like summer’s gold
fearing death deep in my soul
like any other
(A)
But I wake with no one
knowing that- fight was won
by a curse whose work is done
my dreams were smothered
(B)
And it’s all up to me
If I let you go free
I’ll descend next on your friend
You will never love me
(A)
Between the nights I reminisce
over my sweet, mortal bliss
when I just craved your kiss
and to be older
when I just craved your kiss
and to be older
back when I just craved your kiss
and to be older
