After Dark
If I could ask you anything
I heard all of your favourite songs today
I could feel your message as each song played
If I could ask you anything
I would ask you to stay
To look over the memories
You and I have made
I'm lonely, but I'm smart
I know it's raining where you are
In my mind
I'll meet you after dark
In my mind
I'll meet you after dark
Never would I dream of running away
I'm right here where I've always been
Is that still okay?
I promised I'd always stay
To look over the memories
You and I have made
I'm lonely, but I'm smart
I know it's raining where you are
In my mind
I'll meet you after dark
In my mind
I'll meet you after dark

I took my son and niece to Gori, a small town in Georgia where Joseph Stalin was born. They talked me into visiting the Stalin's Museum, the largest in the post-Soviet space. I had resisted going there because I just can't stand the monster and know enough about him, or so I thought.
