Kashka from Baghdad
Lives in sin, they say
With another man
But no one knows who
Dark lights at night
No one thinks there's life inside at all
That there's life inside at all
Except for the ladies who clean the house
Except for the men who put the garbage out
At night
They're seen
Laughing
Dancing
They know
The way
To be
Happy
Never go for walks
Maybe it's because
The moon's not bright enough
They're blind in love, you see
I watch their shadows
Tall and slim
In the window opposite
I long to be with them
What would I do if I were seen?
What would I do if they knew my feelings?
At night
They're seen
Laughing
Loving
They know
The way
To be
Happy
