Steemit Open Mic Week 77 - Original song "Our last night" - by @pauliecruz

Hi Steemians! This is my entry for OpenMic Week 77.
This song is brand new, I finished writing the lyrics only last week and with the purpose of presenting it for the contest! You guys will be the first audience for this song ever. The Open Mic has served as a great push to write more songs, and inspiration as I watched so many talented musicians out there give their best. So I decided to give my own! I hope you enjoy it!.

This song speaks about one of the hardest nights I spent in Europe after breaking up with my travel lover in Poland, one of the longest and darkest nights I've ever experienced (a winter night). I was lost and didn't know where to go, yet somehow after moving on and hitting the road I found myself and the best things happened by the end of my journey before finally coming back home to tell all about it, and sing about it too.

Hola Steemianos! Esta es mi entrada para participar en el Steemit Openmic Semana 77.
Esta canción es muy reciente, apenas terminé de escribir las letras y melodía la semana pasada y con la intención de participar en este concurso con ella. El Openmic ha servido de empuje para seguir componiendo y haciendo música, tambien al ver tantas personas con mucho talento y dando lo mejor de sí, decidí que yo también debía hacerlo!

La canción habla de una de las noches más difíciles que pasé en mi viaje a Europa luego de terminar mi relación con mi pareja de viaje en Polonia, una de las noches mas largas y oscuras (una noche de invierno). Me sentía perdido y no sabía a donde ir, sin embargo al seguir mi camino me encontré a mi mismo y a partir de entonces las mejores cosas fueron sucediendo a lo largo de mi viaje hasta regresar a casa finalmente, para contarlo, para cantarlo.

| Lyrics / Letras |

Another night falls down
And I can see the moonlight
beaming on your face

Our shadows are at bay
A silver coated gaze
Cuts beneath my masquerade

This time
I'll bring the best of me
Cause this time
I don't know if I'll sleep tonight

How can I be here if I'm not home?
How can I grow older without moving on?
I'll be on my way tomorrow

The longest night for sure
I wanna hit the door
but I don't know where to go

How did we come to this?
I cannot find my peace
I gotta leave this wall behind

Cause this time
I'll bring the best of me
Cause this time
I'm singing a new song tonight

How can I be here if I'm not home?
How can I grow older without moving on?
How can I be here if I'm not home?
Now I know my best bet is to face the truth:
I'll be on my way tomorrow
