My Sembreak Diary - Farewell, Ayla

Track number 11 of Road to Quezon

Lyrics:

Tell me now, why would you go
when you're the only one that I know
This cruel world will take what it wants
It's taking a toll on me

This old guitar will play again
And this moonlight called, asking where you've been
We're just these kids played with by our time
And now we're torn, drawing another line

Stay with me here
Stay for another night
I'll fall for your grace
One last time
These stars conspired
To see your smile
Have a hold on my heart
Before you go
My dear, Ayla

Is it everything you thought it would be
'Til I start a fire so you could see me
Keep me close to your heart; you're my life story
Don't you dare forget me

This old guitar won't play again

Without you here, this place is not the same
I'm like a kid, cannot say goodbye
Still denies the truth, but cannot bear to lie

Stay with me here
Stay for another night
I'll fall for your grace
One last time
These stars conspired
To see your smile
Have a hold on my heart
Before you go
My dear, Ayla

I adore you
Last thing I want to hear from you
Is a goodnight, telling me it's the last time
That I will ever see you again
Every broken breath I take
I will scream your name
Before I quit, let me know, tell me now
Will these waves crash over again

My life is hanging while your eyes are fading
Walking away with your head down
Your tears are falling

Stay with me here
(I raise my hand so you could see me)
Stay for another night
(I sing this song so you could hear me)
I'll fall for your grace
One last time
These stars conspired
To see your smile
Have a hold on my heart
Before you go
My dear, Ayla
