if everything is like what you said alright

if everything is like what i need

your smile wouldn't be forced like that

you will at least smile or hug or kiss me

it reminds me of a dew in a scorching noon

there for a second, then evaporates

the end of autumn, or the new moon

our winter came, dark and cold

you love to play piano keys with muscle memory

you used to play the piano with me, years ago

songs about hibiscus and hyacinths

songs i wish i have never written

you'd bake sweet pastries with happy faces

all i want is to have a candid smile

but sobbing in the kitchen, about-faced

you don't know i'm crying all the time

always going out of bed without telling me

how long can i bear this pain alone

playing the piano with the saddest melody

if you know, why didn't you do anything

ending your song when you saw me listening

hoping you'd run after me, but you never did

you're gone like a dust of a silent wind

i'm the same dust that made your eyes cry

so i sat and play the piano like you used to do

we should've played the piano like we used to do

sing songs of hibiscus and hyacinths as pretty as you

write the happiest songs about me and you

lost your battle to cancer, but you're a winner to me

i have reached the finish line, it's time to leave

have a good life in heaven, my amelie

don't forget our memories- love, amelie
