I remember asking you, "Can you hear the waves ?"
And you smiled and said, "Of course I can,
Every sound of life will have to pass through me,
Before they get the privilege of getting closer to you."
Well, that was fifty years ago,
When we're walking hand in hand along the seashore.
And you promised to never let me go. That was the day I fell for you.
Last night, I asked you, "Can you still hear the waves ?"
And you smiled and said,
"Every sound of life will still have to pass through me first,
And though I know there's no ocean here this time,
I know you're talking about your heart, That will stop soon."
Yesterday I fell for you. Again.
I guess it was listening to the same words,
That made me fall for you,
In the last few seconds I had left,
Made it a lot easier and painless for me.
And as I had my last breath,
You said, "Darling, I will always hear you"
And that made me fall for you, Again,
Even when I was dying,
Apart from rising to some heavenly abode,
I was falling too, falling for you.
ALL OVER AGAIN !
