Staring deep into the skies,
wondering if again, my face will glow like galaxies,
if my heart will stop missing you love,
If these tears will ever cease from my eyes,
If ever again we'll meet to lighten up dark souls
If the sound of genuine laughter be heard again,
If love still knows my name,
If there can be rain in our deserts,
Cos now baby, without you, I'm so dry!
Staring at the starry night,
the intense feel of nostalgia hit my loins,
creating a hole in the star-filled sky!
My heart longed for your smile,
the touch of your heaven on my earth.
My wish peaked for your gentle grin,
like the dew of rain that cooled my veins.
You were simply my sumptuousness,
an abundance of cold aqua to my throat!
Now I crack for lack; Oh baby, I am so dry!
It's all gloomy, shadows of us on the wall
It's all blurry, can't move, my love, lest l fall
It's all scary, I need your hug after all
It's all crumbling, guess I'm dry in all.
You are a truth I wish was a lie,
you'd got my whole being, can't say bye.
You are my downfall, my possible rise,
you are my only loss, leave me not to dry!
