Missed Nights

As winter approaches and the nights draw to a close

I used to welcome you by the door with a single red rose

A gentle kiss on your cheek and a warm sensual hug

I would light the sunset fire and we’d wrap ourselves snug

We’d talk about our day as the TV noise fades into the background

The two of us together as one with no one else around

But that was then when we were both young and free

We were right for each other but we don’t know what the future would be

As time passed, we both knew we were slowly drifting further apart

We tried desperately and succeeded not to hurt each other’s heart

As winter approaches, the invisible shadows indicate the darker lights

I wouldn’t hesitate to go back to those special missed nights
