There are times that I remember someone
Someone who's very important to me
But I think he'll forever be in just my memory
Because that someone already left me.

I hate thinking that he's already gone
I hate thinking that he will never come back
I hate thinking about these obvious things
But what I hate most is the thing I did to him

What if I had showed him my true love?
What if I had been a good girl to him?
What if I tried to understand him?
Maybe he's still here right beside me.

I wish I didn't push him away from me
If I'd cared enough, maybe there'll be no gap from the two of us
I hope I can bring back at least some of the times I've spent with him
And make those moments beautiful enough for him not to let me go.

I wish, I hope, and my mind's full of maybe and ifs'
Full of regrets now that my love has gone
Imagining things that I should've done before
Dreams that are completely impossible.

I want him back right here beside me
I need him now to guide and strengthen me
He's the reason why my heart breaks
And the only solution not to make me feel weak.

But now, even though I scream there'll be no use
He will never come back again to me
Leaving my heart completely devastated
Don't know how to fix and start anew.
