Because We Are Before And Now

Because we have all the leading roles
See, you and I are sitting in the same row
Even if our roads are separate
See, you're walking, and I'm walking beside you.

Because we have separate homes
See, we still see each other often
You in other block, mine next to you
See, you're cooking, I smell the food.

Because we are friends so long
See, we still meet in some occasion
Even if we have separate lives now
See, we go and fetch our children in school.

Because we are childhood sweetheart
See, our mutual feeling change and grow
Our love grows to family love and respect
See, no more hatred but maturity in life.
