Tonight I am free
From expectations and temptations
Unbound by time and distance
To write the saddest words a lover could
I do not love you, except for the memories
Unclasped from reality, abandoning all reason
Stark, raving mad – unhinged by desire
Lost, wandering, seeking, not finding
Starved, fading from a hunger only you can fill
Tonight I am free
Liberty paid for with a thousand lies
Like when I said ‘I do not love you’
You with the cherry lips, and wide hips
You, with the smile that lit up the sky
Tonight I am free
To find you, to write you a love song
To adore you once more, like I used to
To leave you – our spring has passed
Only memory and longing will remain
