When It Was You
Somehow it was always you
You were the one who had captive my mind
You were the one who haunted me in the night.
There is something very different in you
I know that it can be what we had gone through
Maybe it was your fulfilling smile
Which I know that sometimes I turned it
Into a broken heart.
I know that I will keep thinking about you
No matter how far am I
The memories of you are like if I have you
In front of my sight.
I told you clearly in French
That I loved you, the message was loud and clear
But I did those stupid things
Just to make sure that you were feeling
Something deep for me.
I certainly wanted to feel your lips
It was never my intention to hurt you
That is something that I don’t want to live with.
Your stunning ethnic Portuguese-Italian beauty
Will keep chasing me I know
I want you to have clear
That is wasn’t because of me.
The only reason that it happened
Is because I thought that you were in love with me
If it happened or not
Those are things that I don’t know.
Maybe you will ignore me, but will never forget
You will always remain in some part of my heart
The one of such a brave and wise man
Today you are reading this, tomorrow
I will be in war, fighting for what I truly love.
When I’m doing something
You just simply fade away
When I’m in those long hours alone
You eventually pass through my deepest thoughts.
From a man that seeks justice
From a man that pursues glory
We both know it on the very inside
We still love each other.
I will never forget you
I’ll remember you at the other side of the world
But I’m very happy, cuz we found each other
And who would believe
That we would end up loving each other.
2018.
