Night By Night
I am a soul of a merchant
And I am a spirit of love
My food is red wine and bread
My spirit flies high above
Trade is a peaceful thing
My love is eternal and true
Love is a pair of wings
My heart feels when I look at you
I was an artist of needless art
Nobody wanted to buy
Once I sold well, then it start
To worsen, because I tried
To change the style, in aim
To explore the more risky way
I failed, my pictures unnamed
Then I called it a day
Once I was a bookseller
I sold greatly, but it went boring
So predictable I won’t tell you
Everyone tells the same story
Then I have found my love
Or was it that love has found
Myself, as that biblical dove
Brought a blessing when I was down
I met you, my dearest one
My beloved, my joy and delight
You’ve gone, but I’m still around
Its for you I live night by night.
