We sat patiently Waiting for the free flow of traffic Then you alighted Said you needed a stretch I waited and watched As you took a step after another Till you were quite a distance Then it started There was movement I called out to you No reply I screamed and beckon to you Still you just kept walking Farther away Until you are no longer unreachable Till you were out of sight I wanted to come after you He held me back He said That's your bus stop I hoped he was wrong Hoped you would turn back And say it was all a prank But no!!! You never came back It dawned on me And then I wished For all the time We spent apart restored Wished I had made good use of time And made you proud I wished I could tell you How much I love you One more time I wished I could hear your voice Telling me you miss me too If only I could turn back the hands of time...

Hands of time
We sat patiently Waiting for the free flow of traffic Then you alighted Said you needed a stretch I waited and watched As you took a step after another Till you were quite a distance Then it started There was movement I called out to you No reply I screamed and beckon to you Still you just kept walking Farther away Until you are no longer unreachable Till you were out of sight I wanted to come after you He held me back He said That's your bus stop I hoped he was wrong Hoped you would turn back And say it was all a prank But no!!! You never came back It dawned on me And then I wished For all the time We spent apart restored Wished I had made good use of time And made you proud I wished I could tell you How much I love you One more time I wished I could hear your voice Telling me you miss me too If only I could turn back the hands of time...
