2010

I took a sip from my cup of coffee in front of me
I wrote the things I would do next year
Sometimes even draw sketches while listening to love songs
I don't even know why I like to listen to love songs as if I have a partner.

You were in college, working part-time, waiting tables
Left a small town, never looked back
I was a flight risk, with a fear of fallin'
Wondering why we bother with love, if it never lasts

I look outside the window
Snowflakes falling from above
The scenery is beautifull
The clean white snow covered the whole ground.

My gazing is interupted when someone walked to my table
I look up to see, him
I turn down the volume to hear what he was saying
He asked me if I could sat down with him, which I replied with a nod.

He introduced himself, Jackson Wang, 24
He offered me a handshake which I accepted
Then I introduce myself to him, Mark Tuan, 23
He started the conversation

"You come here often?" He asked, his voice is sweet, music to my ears

"No, first time"

He then asked me usuall stuff
What do I do for living
Kind of music that I like
Cats or dogs.

I say, "Can you believe it?"
As we're lyin' on the couch
The moment, I can see it
Yes, yes, I can see it now

I realized there's this feeling in my stomach
When he laughs after telling me a joke
When he smiles while looking at me
The one thing I didn't realize was the red tint on my face.

He asked me if I was sick
That made me feel happy
Someone actually care for me
Even though he's just an acquaintence
No one has ever made me feel this way.

His friend called him
I'm guessing his co-worker
His break is over
I might come here often
Not because of the coffee

Do you remember, we were sittin', there by the water?
You put your arm around me for the first time
You made a rebel of a careless man's careful daughter
You are the best thing, that's ever been mine

Because of him.
