Sleeping with the curtains open

Songtekst voor een ballad.

This night it’s not the same.
This night there’s no more shame.
We’re sleeping with the curtains open,
sleeping with the curtains open.

I told you before you can’t love me
cause I’m not ordinary.
You’ll be in grave danger you see.
Cause after this night you’ll never be free.

This night is not the same.
This night there’s no more pain.
We’re sleeping with the curtains open,
sleeping with the curtains open.

It’s you I adore so look at the moon
there’s a heat coming soon.
You won’t be safe in this room,
it’s gonna be so unsafe in here soon.

This night won’t be the same.
This night it’s gonna rain.
But we’re sleeping with the curtains open,
sleeping with the curtains open.

In the morning the window will tell
’bout my love and how I fell.
And what we did to our selves
hours before the morning dew smell.

This night I won’t refrain,
loving you again and again.
We’ll just leave the curtains open,
yes, sleep with the curtains open.
You see, above the line I wrote
someone wrote she loves us both.
That’s why I keep the curtains open,
just sleep with the curtains open.
