I Need The Light

I can't close my eyes
because your memory finds me.
I need the light to distract my thoughts.
Our love was so vivid,
our passion so strong
that it still haunts me now.
It waits in my idle moments
for the promise we made.
Waits for the future it felt
in our tender kisses.

I can't close my eyes.
I need the light
to lie to me.
