Believe me when I tell you
I hear my old heart ache
Every time it pumps blood
Whenever it’s awake
It’s because it’s missing
A very precious part
This distance’s like a dagger
Cutting it apart

Well there’s very little
For us now to do
We’ll have to bide our time and
Pass this tough phase too
Yes I know it’s trying
Hold on to what we’ve got
Tomorrow we’ll be stronger
For today that we have fought

It brings a smile to my face
To think of what is next
Future’s stretched out his arms
It is for our best
With all the little memories
This love will grow so strong
Nothing will ever stop us
As we love, sing this song

No I don’t remember the date
When I first laid eyes on you
But I remember the adrenaline
That burst through my nerves
As my eyes made merry

No I don’t remember the date
When I first held your hand
But I remember the tingling sensation
That jolted through my veins
As we walked together

No I don’t remember the date
When we exchanged our vows
But I remember the luminosity
That danced upon your face
As I stood there mesmerized

No I don’t remember the date
When I last made breakfast for us
But I remember the charming smile
That spoke more than words
As you chewed the half-burnt bread

No I don’t remember the date
When we had that huge fight
But I remember how you apologised
Even though I was wrong
As I felt my ego melt away

No I don’t remember the date
Printed on today’s papers
But I remember you, my love
That is all I need to remember
As I count my final breaths

When the summer sun above
Warned us of a fleeting love
With skin burnt and soul wearied
A fire in my heart I carried
I loved you then

Now a tree has shed her leaves
Instead of tears; she quietly grieves
Some things are meant to be broken
I stand here and watch her unspoken
I love you now

Soon the clouds will turn dark
No more there’ll be a singing lark
When the winter winds come blowin’
I’ll smile at the icy snow well knowin’
I’ll still love you

I loved you then
I love you now
I’ll love you later
I love you for now and for ever

Who could keep his heart in check?
Build a wall — front and back
Yet it escapes from a hole
Plants a seed deep in your soul

Love is a four-letter word like no other

To tell you that I love you
Even though it is true
Would be an understatement
Be unfair to you too
Though Love is a special word
It isn’t adequate
To convey my emotions
I should be more accurate
There simply is more in me
And in my heart for you
Than a mere sentence
As plain as — I love you

There is something about her
That I can’t quite express
She’s a little mystery
I’ll never solve I guess

Is it the lovely curls
Stretching from her hair
That makes my heart go squishy
As I touch her there?

Is it the way she smiles
The smile of an angel true
That leaves me mesmerised in
A way no one else could do?

Is it the words she says
Those whispers in my ears?
I know I’m in love when
My sorrow disappears

Or it could be something else
So charming her appeal
I may never know it
But I will always feel

I may be wiser than most
Or simply plain ignorant
This mystery I’d rather hope to
Leave it unexplained

I know I’m not a hero
Though I tend to forget
What if I’m not Romeo?
I deserve a Juliet
A love that’s young and crazy
A love that’s passionate
A love that’s true and precious
I’d love her just like that
Where’s my Juliet?

Open up the skies now
Crack the land below
Drop her straight in my arms
Like in a magic show
Until I have found her
That peace I can never get
Am I no longer rational
For a girl I haven’t met?
Where’s my Juliet?

Hug me tighter
Don’t let me go
I want to let my soul
Connect with your soul

Hug me tighter
Show me your love
Under the star-studded
Night-sky of the heavens

Hug me tighter
Laugh along with me
Has there ever been more joy
Than what we feel now?

Hug me tighter
Hold me tightly
I’ll do the same to you
Now and forever

Hug me tighter
Whisper in my ears
No song has a tune
With a better melody

Hug me tighter
Count my breaths
I will count your heartbeats
Till eternity

In my garden there’s one flower
Just one and that is all
No matter what the rains may shower
That lonely bud stands tall
That one bloom is all I need
To capture love and all its power
And to plant a tiny seed
In my heart this very hour
