It was summertime
Going on a vacation this time
My family had decided
To have it in our province
I felt delighted
And very excited
After quite a year
Suddenly, some good
Old memories appeared
We are going back
To the place I grew up
Where my childhood
Memories arise
While we are getting near
I saw many changes
I felt like a complete stranger
Even though I have lived here,
For at least eleven years
Now I'm back again
I'm twenty-seven
Things are a littledifferent
When we got to my grandparents' home
Grandma suddenly approached
While I showed respect
By doing a mano po
Then she gave me a hug
How big have you grown up
She whispered to me
While Grandpa gave me
A pat on my shoulder and saying
What a handsome young man!
You have been there now
Then my eyes got intertwined
By a girl that hadcome by
While she was at the door,
Like my jaws fell off the floor
With that wonderful view, I have seen
I suddenly don't know what to do
Like I lost myself suddenly
It's like flashes of hearts
Are floating aroundmy head
Then Grandma said
This is your childhood friend
That really shocked me then
I don't know how to react
I was like, How did that happen?
How did she look thisamazing?
It's like she is the only person I see
I was unable to move
I was like a statue
And only a little more
I'm about to say Ilove you
Her glow up made
My world stopped
While my heart didn't miss
A single drum beat on my chest
While looking at her
How have you been?
It's been quite a year
Since we last saw each other,
That's the word
That came out of my mouth
Before she said I'mokay
I asked her out one day
Not on a date
Just a tour
Around the town
To remember
How things are
But deep inside
It's our first datefor me
