Domingo À Noite

On 22nd Street, I asked about her
On 22nd Street, and in some alleys
On 22nd Street, oh my Cinderella
On 22nd Street, I wrote this for her

If you're the last one to leave
Don't let the light go out, no
I haven't been able to sleep for a while
Without remembering my darkness

Lighten, lighten, lighten my mind just one more time
If you're the last one to leave
Don't let the light go out

Tormented yes, for several months
This comes back to me sometimes
Watching you move on
While I remain in the same place
On the same balcony
With the same problems
With the same cheesy lavender smell

I didn't ask you to stay
But watching you go and not admitting
That you are the best part of me
The best message of my day
My love, my harmony

I couldn't stand half of your fights
Without realizing you contradicted yourself
And of course it would end with me
Crying all day

Could it be Is there a cure for longing?
I don't even know what it's like to be a priority
Of someone having afternoon coffee

I wondered if pride will still kill us
Why play at making me jealous?
Of course it punishes me
But it drives me apart more than it unites

So I wander this city
Watching buildings
The lights pass quickly through this window
I wondered if she knew me in high school
Would she be interested in me?

Give me back my esteem
Revive me, since you killed me
Free me from the weight of this agony
My monotony has suffocated me for a long time

If you're the last one to leave
Don't let the light go out, no (no, no, no, no, no)
For a while now I haven't been able to sleep
Without remembering my darkness

Lighten, lighten, lighten my mind just one more time
If you're the last one to leave, don't let the light go out

Since everyone's gone
Since everyone's gone
(The light goes out)
Since everyone's gone
Since everyone's gone
(Don't let the light go out)
Since everyone's gone
(If you're the last one to leave)
Since everyone's gone
Since everyone's gone
(Don't let the light go out)
Since everyone's gone
