[Verse 1: MPaKK]
I drove home at 2AM, passed by the empty streets
I still got makeup on my face, blasted Vu. on the speakers
Wound down the window and the roof, I felt the wind blowing on my skin
Still got suffocated like when I performed at the clubs
I got lost in my thoughts until the car stopped
Stepped down, hands closed the door, I rubbed my eyes and looked around
Mum was waiting inside, I tried to lock the door, turn the lights off and quickly run upstairs
She hid behind the door, I asked myself “How many times left?”
She’s been waiting at night just to ask me if I have eaten
Ever since we were not wealthy, living in the old shack
Up until now, that habit is never changing
I never realize when I started to see how time flew
Every day is a precious present from the God
When will I get to wish to hear Mum’s voice once again
Even if that means love or a scold
[Chorus: Van Lii]
Time flies so quickly
Like how we pass through the street lights
Those undone loving words
Wonder if there’s still a chance to say them out loud
I tell the leaves outside of the house
Don’t wither, don’t fall too soon, fall down forever
[Verse 2: MPaKK & Van Lii]
I’ve got everything I dreamed of
Making it “My way” like Frank Sinatra
Freely like the wind, I chase after my wishes
I have them all but then I look back
Yesterday and suddenly know that
I have missed so many things from a long time ago
She still looks after me behind every footstep of mine
Sign of time on her skin
I never realized when did it show up
Mum has never told me her dreams
She’s been giving away for her whole life
It made me think she would be there every time I need eventually
But I forgot that
Every morning comes, there goes another day in our lives
Rivers keep flowing and never come back
No one can win the flow of time
I count every heavy footstep, footstep, footstep
How many times are left until this becomes a faraway memory?
[Chorus: Van Lii]
Time flies so quickly
Like how we pass through the street lights
Those undone loving words
Wonder if there’s still a chance to say them out loud
I tell the leaves outside of the house
Don’t wither, don’t fall too soon, fall down forever
[Chorus: Van Lii]
Time flies so quickly
Like how we pass through the street lights
Those undone loving words
Wonder if there’s still a chance to say them out loud
I tell the leaves outside of the house
Don’t wither, don’t fall too soon, fall down forever
