If I Were A Boy..

If I were a boy even just for a day
I'd roll out of bed in the morning
And throw on what I wanted
and go

hang out with the guys
and do my homework
i'd practise proper hygeine
and not get too absorbed
by stupid fast cars

If I were a boy
I think I could understand
How it feels to love a girl
I swear I'd be a better man

I'd listen to her
I wouldnt hang up when she calls
'Cause I know how it hurts
When you lose the one you wanted
'Cause he's taking you for granted
And everything you had got destroyed

If I were a boy
I'ld give her my best
knowing that she appreciates
every moment of that very best

I'ld make the best
of what little time we have left
coz i know and you know
that's all the time we really have
for now

If I were a boy
I think I could understand
How it feels to love a girl
I swear I'd be a better man

I'd listen to her
I wouldnt hang up when she calls
'Cause I know how it hurts
When you lose the one you wanted
'Cause he's taking you for granted
And everything you had got destroyed

It's a little too late for you to come back
Say it's just a mistake
Think I'd forgive you like that
If you thought I would wait for you
You thought wrong

But you're just a boy
You don't understand
And you don't understand, oh
How it feels to love a girl
Someday you will wish you were a better man

You don't listen to her
You don't care how it hurts
Until you lose the one you wanted
'Cause you're taking her for granted
And everything you had got destroyed
But you're just a boy

[edited] But then again, when is life ever easy? Everyone will have their fair shares of ups and downs. I thought i was the only one in misery, when in fact, the truth is far from otherwise. Though pain and hurts come our way in high tides, with conflicts coming in low tide, we must face it with strength. Allow it to hit you but you must get back on your feet again, just as strong, if not stronger. Well, even if that's not how you face life, at least that's how you face the waves that hit you at sea.

Our journey has been a long and difficult one. No doubt with sweet and good memories in between. But i really dont have the heart to let go. I cant.

I regret all the mistakes that i have made. If i could undo them, i would.
