I go away, you follow me
Y art thou, my love, you do this to me?
Wat makes you so unreachable, unfathomable
I can see you go away
Away into cupid's alley...
I run towards it blindly-----stumbling, falling
You smile at me from the gap in the closing doors
I call out to you...
You turn your back to me, walk away
Tired of running, I crash and tumble
Burnt out, bruised, I still call your name
I close my teary eyes, dust-caked face
Visualise you just once more...
I have lost you forever
My soul cries out in searing pain
Wish my heartbeats stop forever...
I erase my memories,
That soothing touch, a caring tone,
A voice I may never forget
Hands that once touched my soul
Lips that kissed my hair
Arms engulfing me in a strong hug...
Bitterness seeps in
As I wipe my eyes, stand up
Take one last look behind
And walk ahead...
Years later, strains of music in the fore
Images flash before me
In black and white
As I tread the same lanes...
I hear a familiar voice
Calling my name
I turn around and see him
A heartbroken soul
He reaches out to me
I look him in the eye
Once bitten, twice shy,I say
And walk out of his embrace...
This time, I hear a familiar cry,
A single tear escapes my eye
I walk ahead, shake my head
Ironical, I say!
What goes around, comes around...
