Manang I Need You

Manang I Need You

It’s very hard for me to explain

Very difficult to show how much I care

I’m really struggling

What should I do?

Please help me! How can I show my love for you?

As days pass by I just stare at you

Thinking and wondering how will I kiss you

How will I embrace and touch you?

I’m so afraid, I might be rejected

Co’z you’re busy doing your project in school

I know it is my fault why I became like this

Where in fact before, I am the one so sweet

I don’t know why I became bitter?

Maybe because I let anger overwhelm me

And now I got caught and cannot be freed

Please help me, please reach my hand

I need you as a sister, as a friend

don’t abandon me, show me that you care

I need you, I need you

Don’t let me rot in this doom to death.
