at night
I will become a fiery red
dancing in the moonlight
calling you, like you said

you will keep me close
worried to let me go
I wouldn't wither
like you fear so

we will make love
under the silver skies
the fiery moon will turn
a fiery red, in between sighs

I have only lost
you have very well gained
I will keep dying
but not because, I am a saint

I will keep dying
because I can
and I will pray
you don't die a heartless man
