O You Heartless Stranger
O you heartless stranger, leave not this heart in strange,
Over the roads of SM Street your eyes sees me discrete,
Mind not me but me in stare that you don't give a care
And you don't but still I stare heavily before you bare.
Let the talkers talk witches spell and ring their bell,
But there dwell a rare hell in me like a shell,
To call you and tell-- I am near don't fear my near,
Hear this stranger's love so clear amidst your peer,
Call me to you my soul of soul or let me my soul,
Wrap your fear to my tear till my pain flee in vain.
Call me selfish and you do, for ever, selfish
Holding your hand for ever, selfish and I am selfish!
I wait here, still here till you wake and see me here,
And I wait, still here and I wait….
