After You Leave

As I stare on and on into the past A1
The depth of our feelings is true and right, b
As the time passed by, our love did not last. A2

The memories can’t erase, it remain a

Now you’re gone, life do not give any light, b
As I stare on and on into the past. A1

Sweetness in me now covers me in pain a

Loosing interests, includes appetite, b
As the time passed by, our love did not last. A2

Whenever I’m sad, follows heavy rain a

Thoughts of you give me struggles and hard fight, b
As I stare on and on into the past. A1

I miss you and I can’t even explain a

All I want is to be with you tonight, b
As the time passed by, our love did not last. A2

My life now is full of sadness and plain, a

Sobbing in the room every day and night. b
As I stare on and on into the past. A1
As the time passed by, our love did not last. A2
