So there is half a moon tonight br And there is no hint of clouds br And falling stars can be seen br And I can lie on the grass br Surrounded by scented candles, br Trying to hear Nature’s voice br Or catch a last glimpse of my day. br I can keep my watch inside br And let the endless sky watch me. br I can close my television br And let some horrific news wait for a day. br I can hide my phone under the pillows br And hide my face in my cat’s fur. br Tonight she could have all of my attention. br I can ignore the neighbours’ shouts br And the noise of motorcycles and cars br And I can pray to be ignored by the world br Just for tonight. br But I will stay again in my bed, br Wondering why I’m not outside br And making again the decision that br at the next perfect night br I’ll enjoy the fact that I’m alive. br br And life goes on br And true pleasures stay behind.
