Our eyes met as you smiled at me,

I looked away, bashful and shy,

I shifted uncomfortably in my seat,

My hands sweating,

I don't know why.

Those four precious letters dwell in my heart,

I couldn't find courage to speak,

Whenever I saw you,

I felt red-hot sparks,

Without you, I can't even breathe.

The words that I wanted are stuck in my throat,

The words I have longed to say,

With you gone

How can I ever cope?

You're the one that got away.
