Lyrics

Orlando.

When
Darkness embraces me
And wine
Opens shutters
Solitude whispers
Secrets in your ear.

Night is the day’s hope
And there’s no room for sadness
‘Cause everything is too real
And time has stagnated

As a big lake
Of hot wine.

Orlando pulls off the skirt
And the trousers and corsets
Unfastens

Buttons on the vest
And cleans her pretty face.
Slowly,

Dips a toe in the lake
And sparks light up the sky.
Now they call it
They call it stars.

He, she
He, she
Orlando
He’s she
She’s here
Orlando.

Written by Namina.
