"Bu Gece (Kir Zincirlerini)" ("Tonight") was originally formed part of Tarkan's 1997 album Ölürüm Sana (I'd Die For You) under the title of "Kır Zincirlerini". The song was written and composed by Tarkan. It was reproduced by Laurent Marimbert and re-mixed by Jeeb at ADS Studios for the European music market and included in Tarkan's compilation album Tarkan in 1998. It was released as a single after his previous two singles "Şımarık" and "Şıkıdım" in 1999. Other releases of this single only had two tracks, "Bu Gece" and "Unut Beni," as a B-side.
Kır Zincirlerini / Bu Gece
When I was you we walked to school
And I carried your books 'cause even then I was a fool
But you grew up and said goodbye
I still remember the things that made me cry
For all too soon my story ends
I found a love, now not even friends
Tell me why
loving you, loving me like you used to do
I was the child
I held your hand and I told you things
And I made you believe, believe in fairy tales
and diamond rings
Then all too soon my story ends
I found a love, now not even friends
Tell me why
loving you, loving me like you used to do
I was the child
