It's such a cold night to be sitting out here
At the seaside where I first saw you
Picking up the sand covered piece of coral reef
The very place where our paths collided
And things started taking different turns
I'm looking at you across the table
But you are not aware of my stare
Your hands are busy with the phone
And your mind is wandering someplace but here
If only I could see you the way I saw you before
If only I could unsay everything that I said to you
If only I could turn back time
And tell the waves not to come rushing near
But feelings are like the ocean waves
We can not stop them from coming
They just go wherever the wind blows
And no man can change the direction of the wind
Anyway, the moon has left the horizon
my coffee is getting cold and I guess yours, too
And it doesn't take much time
For me to find myself busy with my playlist
Until the time comes to wave you goodbye
Once again
