Emmanuel Emesakoru
You Alone
You alone made my heart flutter like a flag
You alone trampled on my emotions like a rag
You alone sang me songs like an evening bird
But now you're acting really crazy and weird
You promised me you'd give an everlasting bliss
You said if I'm with you, there's nothing I'll miss
You even promised to walk with me down the aisle
Now all I do is sit down all by myself and cry
I miss all the funny times we'd throw our pillows
Now all I get from our memory is constant sorrow
I miss all the nights that I called you on phone
Those wonderful nights now remind me of you alone
