You tell me that you love me,That you can even die for me,That if you were to reincarnate,You want to be just me,But I know,‘tis just for a timeDay and night, you lie,Of much thoughts about me,Skipping meals, just for me,Skipping ropes, just for me,But I know,‘tis just for a timeLast weekend, you gave me a rose,And from a million, only I chose,Comparing me to honey and stars,Even to the pious angels and saints,But I know,‘tis just for a timeSooner than later, this I know,Your love might die away,And also fade away as fast,Just like the rose and stars,But I know,‘tis just for a timeAnd then, you will let me know,That the bitter truth of sweet love,Was just dew in the break of dawn,That the sun will rise and take it away,But I know,‘tis just for a timeYes, I really know this for sure,But fearful of love turning into hatred,And wish status quo can be maintained,Yes, ceteris paribus in our love lives,But I know,‘tis just for a timeCopyright Hillary Wachinga @ 2011
