The first day when I saw you

Was the day when all things felt brand new

I didn't know

Maybe I just didn't see

That maybe... we were meant to be

I tried hard to act normally

In those days when my heart beats awkwardly

Maybe you had a clue

That maybe... I had a crush on you

Four months passed by and I still liked you

I started to ask myself that maybe... I was falling for you

Maybe I was

I just tried to deny

Until the day that I saw you

During the cold Monday of January ninth

I hid myself behind the silence

So that maybe, I wouldn't feel your presence

You went away without saying a word

Little did I know that you would leave on February third

We chatted for a few weeks

Until our topics grew weak

I coudn't find anything else to say

We ran out of topics... so much for that day

You gave clues that you might like me

But you also gave clues that maybe... you were just annoyed by me

"Ambiguity is striking again," I was afraid to say

As I thought about my past, which still lingered until those days

But I tried to fight by taking baby steps

Maybe I could reach your heart in time

And even reach its depths

But I won't expect

I'll just see how it goes

About how a baby step towards you

Can make a love grow.
