One Night Stand

Tell me your name, and maybe,
Maybe all your secrets.
I see your empty world as I drown
In your blue eyes.
You're loveless, alone:
So alone I want to hold you
and give you a piece of me you can take
Wherever you go.

Tell me about your heartbreaks,
Your nightmares, your sleepless nights—
Tell me, tell me everything.
Leave yourself asleep in my arms
as I kiss your dreams goodnight.
Love me, stranger, for we both know
The sun will come to take you home
And you won't have me again.

Close your eyes as I sing you my lost lullabies.
And leave me a souvenir, a memento—
Tell me your name.
And maybe, maybe all your secrets.
