Paolo |
|
where have you gone |
|
Have the spirits found you |
|
You were one of their own |
|
Paolo |
|
you could see him |
|
the man in the hat |
|
brown, with a wide brim |
|
always standing there |
|
watching by the door |
|
I think you always knew what he was waiting for |
|
Paolo |
|
Understanding my heart was true |
|
with the lenses of contact you could see through |
|
You could tell me what I should do |
|
Paolo |
|
I've seen evil |
|
It's worn me down |
|
and I would have made games if you'd been around |
|
In the darkness where you are now |
|
Paolo |
|
you loved Godard |
|
black holes and light years |
|
absintho and cards |
|
Paolo |
|
Fragile but sure |
|
Hot strains of genius you couldn't endure |
|
And when visions burned equations in your mind |
|
you'd drown your reckoning in cigarettes and wine |
|
Oh but ... |
|
Paolo |
|
Understanding my heart was true |
|
with the lenses of contact you could see through |
|
You could tell me what I should do |
|
Paolo |
|
I've seen evil |
|
It's worn me down |
|
and I would have made games if you'd been around |
|
In the darkness where you are now |
|
Paolo |
|
wherever you are |
|
say a prayer for me |
|
I've been dancing with |
|
monsters perilously |
|
Some so subtle, only you'd see |
|
Paolo |
|
I've seen evil |
|
It's worn me down |
|
and I would have made games if you'd been around |
|
In the darkness where you are now |
|
In my darkness where you are now |
