MOONLIGHT IS TRYING TO SURVIVE

WITHOUT YOU

Me without you in my life
Is like a leafless fall,
This is my world so quiet:
So alone with no one to hold
A lost soul with no hope,
A snow winter without you
To keep me warm,
A flowerless spring with no green,
Here was trouble seems to always find
Me and makes me blue,
Me without you,
Is like a boat without water to take afloat
is like a colorless rainbow,
a sunless day,
and a starless night with no hope of love,
Dead winds' on a sleepless night,
Me without you,
Is like the ocean without a wave,
the beach without sand,
and a flameless fire.
A doubtful night of dreams of hurt
And badness on my mind wondering
What you are doing all the time without
Me holding at night?
Me without you,
Is like a book without words,
A man without a trace,
and a child with no name.
I am tired of tears I need laughter,
I need to feel love,
I need a body to hold me all night
do I need to say more.
