I wandered alone in the night for long
Never knowing what I was searching for
I had a faint memory of my desires
But was never sure what I was after.
Darker than it seemed were the nights without you…
And when it was clear to me
I feared if it can ever come true
Hopes are good, but not enough
Or so, I grew up to believe.
Darker than it seemed were the nights without you…
This was the predicament I always feared
Now neck deep in it, I was fast losing hope
My heart wandered from one face to another
Like a dry leaf in the autumn, without a destiny.
Darker than it seemed were the nights without you…
To me it seemed like a wild-goose chase
And long before the sun could shine on me
I was getting used to my self-inflicted loneliness
Only the shadow remained faithful.
Darker than it seemed were the nights without you…
The Coffee shops, the Pubs, the Discos, the streets
I searched her everywhere, the one of my dreams
But whenever I found someone, I wasn’t just sure
Soon I realized that it was only lust that was driving me.
Darker than it seemed were the nights without you…
The fear of giving-in was terrifying sometimes
So to restrain my feelings was anything but easy
I could have waited, but I would not, I knew
In not more than couple of days the urge dies
Darker than it seemed were the nights without you…
The antagonist in me coerces me to judge
Finding something hateful in any of them was easy
And then the whole perspective changes, everything changes
The reflexes work fast and I fly away from there, to another
void.
Darker than it seemed were the nights without you…
But this time it is different, completely different
She took me by surprise, with the ease in her words
I must admit that it is her irresistible natural charm that
Crumbled my defenses and opened up a whole new world.
Darker than it seems are the nights without you…
With irresistible tenderness she affirms her charisma
Her voice so soft and mellow, her casualness overwhelming,
Her sanity well maintained, her individuality well upheld,
Her sense of humor so natural, she is at-last a reality.
Darker than it seems are the nights without you…
I feel so vulnerable, as if I were only a child
Floating like a free feather, is my heart
Erupting like the burning lava, is my passion
Real like life itself, is my love for her.
Darker than it seems are the nights without you…
