The river water turns white
As rain turns to falling stars
In every spark I find you

Every tear turns into bullets
That punched through your heart
Though blown up mine

I see you under every lamp post
Waiting with smiling eyes
Waiting for me

Was the letter written too late?
Was the song sung too late?
Was I too late?

I let the water flow
Til they turn into a river of memories
Ever flowing

The river water turns white
In every falling star
You are there
The strings of your music
Entangled with the vines of my heart
As the moon shines bright tonight
I wished for rain to make tears in my eyes

The waves sing a song
The wind whispers a secret
Even the birds could cry
Why cannot I?

Droplets of salty water
Are they not the same
As the sea water that sheds in my face
A million more tears for you

Your footsteps dance on the strings of music
Entangling with the vines of my heart
Upon the bright moon tonight
I wished for real tears to cry
You stand under the moonlit sky
Waiting
Waiting

The stars fade
Waiting
Waiting

The dawn broke
Waiting
Waiting

Waiting
Still waiting
Just waiting
I trace the butterflies
Flying inside your eyes
With the tip of my fingers
I start to remember

Once upon a time
In a faraway land
There lived a girl
Who danced with the butterflies

My hand starts to trace down
With the bunnies that hop
On the bridge of your nose
Like the ***** of a meadow

Mermaids swim gracefully
In the rivers of your lips
Waving back at me
With smiles sparkling like the stars

Drops of rain starts to fall
Where the butterflies fly
There I remember
The girl looking back at me
I am the other
Under the painted sky
Where I am invisible
Even in the rays of the sun

I am the other
That waits in the riverbanks
Scooping memories with my hands
And draw your feet walking behind me

I am the other
Dipping into your waters
And in the ripples of your memory
I begin to fade

I am the other
Who wishes upon the stars
To fly me to another world
Where you and I

Can no longer be the other.
The big star sparkles in the sky
Between night and day
There I found you
Butterflies in your lips

If the sun rose at night
And stars fall down each day
This love you call
Would it be for another?

If the moon woke at day
And clouds sparkled
Will time allow to be still
And let me keep you in heart

Beyond the next star
These lines could cross the same sea
Yet would our hands touch the same palms
And recognize the stars of yesterday

Someday strangers will pass by
This jungle of nothingness
And find you standing still
With arms wide open

Someday strangers will pass by
This sea of emptiness
And find me floating still
With arms wide open

Someday strangers will pass by
This city of the sky
You and I standing still
Just like strangers passing by
Trees faded in the wind
Your smile like the bloomed flower
Even the sun awakens
Even the rain cries

Our lines remotely connected
But in another place
I felt your pain
Through an abandoned room

Now I stand
With words like birds
Hopeful to reach
Your heart that is poached

Tears may never be enough
To lift the nail from the wood
Yet through every rip
Feel that He is there for you

The black and blues may invade
Yet hold on to the weapon of faith
Where mercy and grace is born
Through the Love that began it all

The skies may seem gray
In every waking day
Still walk on the road
That shines to the emerald paradise
