The one who brings you happiness is often the same one who causes your sorrow.
Whenever I see you It makes my heart happy I couldn't explain what it is Though I don't spend time with you Looking at you from afar Makes it feel like you're closer I wish I can tell you the things in my mind I wish I could talk to you about things in life About what makes my day, or what upsets me I wish I could have a conversation with you Where we can only listen to each other's story To laugh and even cry if it's needed I admire you from afar Without you knowing You will never know I will keep it in my heart as long as I can I know this is just part of my journey You will be part of it Without you knowing I will keep it in my heart Somehow, someone like me Admire you from afar I wish you good things in life A good partner one day I don't even know if I am ready to know That one day you will have your own partner Someone you love I cannot love you I cannot care for you So what I can only do is to pray for you That one day you will find that someone I hope you will be loved by her deeply The way I wish I could do I will be right here, from afar Loving you...I don't even know if this is love I think I am just happy to see you It feels like there's connection since day one It has some tension whenever you're around I am not even sure if you feel the same I felt it a few times that you get shy around me I thought I was the only one who felt it But I caught you a few times I remember the day you stared at me I wish I knew what's on your mind You stared at me and I stared back We were both looking at each other Without even smiling You were the first to look away I laughed in my head thinking 'Aha, do you think I can't stare back?' But wondering what was in your mind While staring at me Those eyes are speaking But I couldn't hear anything But I felt something Unsure. I wanted to ask 'Do you like me?' But who am I to ask? I would be afraid of your answer What if you said yes? My heart will be broken Because I know I cannot like you back And if you said no That's a bummer I would be hurt but laugh at myself Assuming that there is something there Even just a little bit Oh well, let's get over it That would be my next move.
