When the night was so young
You smiled from afar
I was way too damn shy
To let laughter be there
The night got older
I got bit bolder
Left that cold bar stool
Feeling like a fool
You saw my shaking
Such awakening
In stars brightening
The moon was so full
Your heart welcoming my love
A heart that had to be warmed
Cooling this lonesome evening
Making me so comfortable
I cried that tender night
Tears of lonesome pain
Melting into such joy
