FOR OLD TIME SAKE


Baby, I truly do not infer in any way
When you told me you are going away
I must have had your feeling mistreated
I am sorry, wish I could seize such a moment back


Do not you reckon you are making a mistake?
Remember how I held you close doing the wake
I was there for you when the cloud became dark
When the sun came, I made sure you never lacked


I love you still, in my heart, I dream of you
On the sand of time, I drew a picture of me hugging you
Whenever you are in my arms makes the night smile
Can you grant me another opportunity and stay for a while 


My days have been cold, my night's getting colder
Whenever the night is blue, you made up time to come over
I could never be used to you for a million years to come
Thoughts of living without you it as drifting helplessly in the storm


Forget every silly word I must have said
All I crave is to be close by your side
You stole my heart both now and in the future
Living without you suicidal for sure


I have waited many lonesome nights for you
I can't love someone else the way I love you
If you look back, you will find God's will for me, and you
That's why He gave me the heart to love you as no one else does


I do not wish to be the only one looking at the picture
Together we can both fulfill our dreams in the future
Search your heart and mind if you wouldn't find traces of me in you
Tell me when you said goodbye, there is truly nothing you can do


When the night slips away, promise you'll stay for me
You will be the queen and I the king in your dream
Just to be close to you, all we need is a moment together
I promise never to leave your sight forever
