As the stars drop down the curtains
in the sky to turn dark
I burst into tears to let go of the
pain in my heart and the emptiness
caused by my lover.
He said he went to his white master
To earn a living for us
and would be back soon
so we could live happy lives
but I have waited all in vain.
I wake up early in the morning
and stare at the door the whole day
I watch couples down the street
happy and I envy them
because my love left me.
Please my love come back to me
before am worn out of waiting for you
and wash away my pain
make me have a reason to live again
and we be happy ever after.
