Love Me Once More
Come back into my life again
If it’s but to forsake me again,
come back for a moment brief
Oh, even if it’s to give me grief.
With sly mischief in your eyes
you escaped like a lover’s sighs
forsaking me like a haunted isle
I am dismayed by your cruel wile.
It’s been a long time and I forgot
did we love each other or hurt a lot?
Seeing you might revive the pain
Come, if it’s to find my faults again.
Let’s relive the lovely days of yore,
Give our love a chance once more,
Oh, I’ve been missing you of late
roaming about in a confused state.
Oh, how do I recount to everyone?
What do I say? Why me you shun?
If you are hurt because of me
then come for the world to see.
Even if it’s to break my heart—come
and do spend time with me some,
Then turn your back and walk away
even if you’ve to forever go away.
