[Verse 1]

Many times I'v

Many times I'v

That you'd eve

And this heart

              
 you taught to

 
 cry


[Chorus]

Darling wait u

ntil I see you
            
Since you say 

          
it is the end

Though I know 

that you don't

 love me
           
Won't you let 

           
me be your fri
