Memories of the Heart

It's midnight but still i am awake
ideas in my mind coming round and round
my heart's pounding soundly while staring through the dark
i'm deaf with the silent of the night,
watching the clock as it strikes the 12 o'clock.

Still my eyes are open walking to and fro
waiting for the man, waiting for you to arrive.
it's been a year but the memory still there
we're not meant with each other, that's what you said
bade goodbye and walk away.
 
I couldn't imagine these things could happen
we're happy  together making promises with each other
our future was molded, so perfect, so beautiful
walking hand and hand for tomorrow's dream,
full of love, with hearts beating as one.

I remember the past when we're still together
can't help the tears from falling when past flashed  back.
the life so simple with you by my side
i'm free and i can fly and reach the top of the sky
so wonderful, without hatred and loneliness.

Can't figure out why all of this are gone
why don't you tell me  if i had done wrong
why just leave without talking with me
did you treasured the time we had
or leave it away just what you did to me?

But those times are gone and just memories now
i am here left out feeling melancholy.
i'm feelin' sleepy now, my eyes are droopy
this is the last time i gonna cry, i'm tired.
my mind are blank, my heart is numb.
tomorrow is my new day, i will sleep for now.
