When all are dizzy and happy from too much wine
I leave the party behind,
To be alone with my thoughts and this spinning mind
Through this cold night... but there she stands.

And she walks like you and she smiles almost like you
child of the wild just like you... yes.

For a second I think I get a glimpse
Of the real her, behind.
She's warm and fragile with smiles that reach to her eyes.
But just this moment, a change so sublime...

If she looked me deep into my eyes and softly asked me too
I'd be in her bed and in her flesh and waste a life I knew
So I hold my breath and close my eyes and focus on the wine.
Let this trembling moment pass us by, so I could say "goodnight".

But then, an impulse - I almost touched her face
Before I pulled back my hand.
And we get nervous, we laugh and she spills her wine,
Both so awkward for what's on our mind.

And she talks like you, and she smells almost like you,
child of the wild just like you.
But she's not all you, even strives not to be you -
Just like every sister would do.

And perhaps it's the wine, or that you in her eyes,
But I want her this one single time... just this one time.

If I'd looked into her eyes and softly asked her too
She would give herself and give her flesh and waste a life she knew.
So we hold our breath and close our eyes and take a sip of wine.
But this thirst has emptied every glass - and we should say "goodnight".

...God, help me say "goodnight".
