I can’t live with myself alone anymore
There’s no one to give me company here
I need an escape, I wish to be lost
Take me beyond the moon dear
I may wander like a nimbus cloud
I’d like to shine resembling stars
Let raindrops hide my tears, besides
Washing away all my scars
I have ambitions, hopes and aspirations
I need some love and amity
Some angel must have sent you
To me, like a serendipity
You’re my guide, friend and philosopher
I’d learn about the world from you
I would follow you to the end of the globe
And emulate whatever things you do
Just help me to stand on my feet
Let me learn from the book of life
A little assistance from you my mentor
Would surely lessen the pain and strife
So let me be your follower
Impart your knowledge on me
I promise with my dedication,
I’ll be wisdom’s epitome
