How Could You Say Hello (Draft 1)

Just as I got used to you babe
dressing that beautiful body,
and looking in the mirror, though
I could have told you
how beautiful you are,

yeah, just as I fell in love with you
and woke up to your naked truth
and everything you wanted to say

just as you became a melody
no matter sad or happy, and
it sounded so beautiful to me
to hear your voice everywhere

Yes, just as my love for you
captured me completely

You left.
