I Remember I Have Love Once

By. Peter Ho

Someone requested a song on the radio
It played I Remember I Have Loved
In the rear-view mirror, I didn't say much
I watch you getting off the car, going up the floor
I hold tight the stray lace
Your face flashes before me
I have some inklings
At this moment, I hold back my questions

I remember I have loved
I can't get back those happiness
Scare that my emotions would be out control
Scare that I would cry a river
Scare to force you to do things

I remember I have loved and understood
The turning point in your feelings
Tears wet through the paper crane
Love grays the colors
And my heart feels as if it is being rip apart
It can't be easily healed anymore

You said you were only friends
I went along with a heavy heart
Your eyes are evading me
At this moment
What else have you not said
You lower your head to put on some nail polish
Counting the cherry flowers
The picture fills with tenderness
But I'm counting in my head
The number of times you have given me the silent treatment

I remember I have loved
I can't get back those happiness
Scare that my emotions would be out control
Scare that I would cry a river
Scare to force you to do things

I remember I have hated and gone mad
I started talking to myself
Tears wet through the paper crane
Love grays the colors
And my heart felt as if it was being rip apart

I remember I have loved
I can't get back those happiness
Scare that my emotions would be out control
Scare that I would cry a river
Scare to force you to do things
It can't be easily healed anymore
