Tonight I lie with loneliness
And a kiss dreamt from the air.
The room is blue, my new acquaintance.
The sheets remember the shape of her.
To see the world as one big shrine,
Love is the device for this.
It burns your eyes until they’re blind.
Tonight I lie with loneliness.
God is everywhere she insists.
I’ve never seen though forever stared.
The only place where I’ve known bliss
is in a kiss dreamt from the air.
Maybe He is hiding there.
My eyes grope in the darkness.
They can’t shape Him anywhere.
Tonight, the lie of loneliness.
It’s all around me, I make my peace;
Let flowers be what they are.
Through empty rooms I send a wish
for a kiss dreamt from the air.
Of all the absent the one I miss
is a kiss become a dream of air.
The room is blue, my old acquaintance.
Tonight I lie with loneliness.
