Like a Lover
Feb 22, 2024
My sleep alone in Mexico
Is so different
Night is not the ending
The door closing
Like the first night with a new lover
I’m buzzing and don’t want sleep
Who is this new lover?
It’s me
My sleep alone in Mexico
Is so different
Night is not the ending
The door closing
Like the first night with a new lover
I’m buzzing and don’t want sleep
Who is this new lover?
It’s me
