The Love Story

You said you’re sleepy, how could you?
When all I wanted to say was I love you
So I’ll be gone for a week or two
To keep myself away from you

You may not see me but I can see you
Watching all the things you do
You words came by but it also flew
You words left me and I was blue

So I looked for another and there she was
Love struck me like a lightning flash
Watching everything she does
Brought me joy and forgot my past

A letter of love then I sent
Hoping she’ll catch what I meant
I waited for the response ‘cause I just can’t…
Then I knew, for each other, we’re not meant

Now I’m sad, I’m back to zero
The last thing I need now is a hero
Then another came and eased my sorrows
She gave hope to my tomorrow

And for now I’ll just wait
‘cause I know it’s never too late
For you and I to be in this state
Where both time and love will not waste
