LYRIC FOR SALE

By Thorsten Gabriel

On some nights those nights when I miss companionship
When nothing smells of you anymore and there is no touch to feel
And my apartment turns into a prison I sit there
With my ten commandments so ready for kisses and tenderness

In those hours all that remains for me is a familiar garment
Woven of longing and loneliness
It holds me in a gentle embrace as I walk into my torture chamber
Drifting through pubs discos and bars with the look in my weary eyes
That says I am ready for kisses and tenderness

Hold me tight if you can
Don't just smile for the pose
Give me the scent of a woman's hair
Gift me that familiar garment take me with you

It is night take me with you let me finally feel
Take me with you yes you may take me with you
She won't allow it your face fades away
Your words fade away

She holds me in a tight embrace longing and loneliness
She kills every desire loneliness lies hidden within us
When I try to leave she chains me fast

And even if the next morning lends me its sun
Deep within me remain the worries born of longing and loneliness
That familiar garment I wear

I wait staying perfectly still then rise
Go to the window and open it
I see the market square and the night and feel the wind
And then you came along
