It’s difficult to face the day,
Thinking should I go or stay.
When I’ve lost the will to live,
For there’s nothing more to give.

It will be easier to bury the pain,
‘Coz the ache drives me so insane.
Just put the sorrow behind,
Live my life mute and blind.

The days seem so endless,
Struggling to do my very best.
With each moment of tiny steps,
Feelings are carefully kept.

Then one day, I heard the Lord,
“I am here, just say the word”.
And so I knelt and pray,
For Help is on the way.

Now, I know this ache will pass,
My sufferings will end at last.
The burden is too much to feel,
But I know, time will come for me to heal.

A smile on your face
Cheerful thoughts to fill your days
A heart full of happy moments
For someone who is heaven-sent.

Two hands to hold you near
To stop all those tears
Share with you all the sadness
Because it’s you I love the best.

Two arms to keep you warm
Protect you from any harm
Stay strong to face your fears
For it’s you, I’ve loved all these years.

One heart that cares so much
To another soul, I long to touch
When my chance came at last
Time went by so very fast.

Three times, I burned your heart
Left you wounded, alone, and scarred.
This time, you’re gone for good.
I never really did all that I could.

You told me if this is the love I feel
That I give you five more years to heal.
Because loving you means more to me
So now honey, I am setting you free.

People keep on telling me,
You’ll get over her, I disagree.
Falling in and out of love,
Left me with a mountain of doubt.
My heart keeps missing a beat,
Wonderin’ if I will ever make it.

Women came in and out of my life,
And somehow I lived and survived.
But seeing you at the coffee shop,
Felt my heart suddenly stop.
Years went by until you came,
My feelings remained the same.

We tried to mend our connection,
Carefully thinking about our situation.
Do we pursue this untold and true love,
Asking for blessings from heaven above.
Praying we are given a chance,
To make this one last dance.

I am sorry for giving you so much pain,
Because I betrayed your love again and again.
The one and the only true person I adore,
Can never take me back anymore.
I never really knew how to love you,
Now, you’ll never know how much I deeply do.

Here I am, at it again
Trying to shut down the pain.
All these years that passed us by
Should have learned to say goodbye.

Don’t know how you did it,
Turn your back in just a minute
With all the things we’ve shared
You can go on and not care.

I know you are hurting too
But you always know what to do.
On how to handle the ache
Be silent…for everybody’s sake.

I never want to be a stranger
If I have to hold on a bit longer
‘Til you believe that I still love you so
Honey, I am never letting you go.

It’s yet another journey,
The time I want to pass in a hurry.
Just have to serve my time,
Before I can call you mine.

Been on this road once before,
And guess I’m still up for more.
New people and things will come my way,
But of all, it’s you I want to stay.

Fears and doubts may pull us down,
But I won’t be the lonely clown.
For now, everything is clear,
That it’s you who completes me, my dear.

I know I often hurt you
And, I lied, it’s true
No more words left to say
So I can make you stay.

We’ve been on this road before
And you want nothing more
But to be rid of me
That I should let you be.

I tried so hard to find you
For apologies are long overdue
You’ve kept your life hidden
That to reach you is forbidden.

I pray you are doing okay
You are on my mind every day
And let my heart believin’
One day, I will be forgiven…
