RUNNING HOME TO YOU


Since i left with our sins to bear, I've been homesick,
Turnin' the universe upside-down to find familiar love,
Went to east and west, but each side is willin' to freak,
Sometimes i smoke and fall sleepin' at the balcony floor,

Nothing i found enthralling while i rummage my thoughts,
The emptiness becomes wider 'nd the more my heart sinks,
Love is what gets stuck in the depth of soul and thoughts,
The passionate melody leads the romance around rings,

I've lost the way home, but am tryin' hard to remember,
The points and curves hidden within our hearts at times,
Sparkles fly ultimately high in scattered hues, we admire,
The essence and true feelings — peace and joy in minds,

What happened to me is you, and i realised when i cry,
The tears flowing tells me allot of the memories of you,
Love in all takes time especially the pictures of past time,
When the time was right and the moments was fine clue,

Well am running back home to you my love, take me as I'm,
I don't care anymore, if we still have wings to fly or both smile,
Let me be around your shade, cuddle your chubby cheeks,
And feel the taste of love while we're young enough to chime,

I don't have to go too far to figure out am dying, but turn home,
If we go down, we must go together, and if we stay fly; together too,
I'll come running home to you, and forever I've come to stay home,
Take me back and let's not ask for our sins when am finally home.
