Elizabeth
A tribute to my late lola

Verse 1:
The thought of you lingers in my head
And now I still see you on your bed
When will I have the strength to accept that you’re gone?

The silence that you left here still haunts me
I wish I could just count to three
Then you can reappear, let’s pretend you were never gone

Pre-chorus:
What if we had a choice?
Would I still hear your voice?

Chorus:
If we had one more time,
Would you stay for a while?
Now all we have is goodbye

If I had stayed that night,
Would you still take that flight?
Now I could just look at the sky

Verse 2:
I thought of you today but it’s nothing new
I thought about you yesterday too
How much more can this heart
Bear the pain I got from losing you?

I think of you in silence and say your name
Now all I have are memories and a picture frame
You remain in my mind
Now it feels like you’re still alive..

Pre-chorus:
What if we had a choice?
Would I still hear your voice?

Chorus:
If we had one more time,
Would you stay for a while?
Now all we have is goodbye

If I had stayed that night,
Would you still take that flight?
Now I could just look at the sky

Bridge:
Lola: Magpaabot kami sa ijo pag abot. That will be 2019, 2021, or 2020? Jaon pa gihapon kami. (We will wait for you. That will be on 2019, 2021, or 2020? I (We) will still be here.)

Chorus:
If we had one more time,
Would you stay for a while?
Now all we have is goodbye

If I had stayed that night,
Would you still take that flight?
Now I could just look at the sky
