First my fate was to be lied to,

'Cause I liked it, and I lied too.

Then my fate was on it's Round Two.

Out of two rounds, it stopped--

said, "Here I am. Here I am."

Come embrace me, I'm your long lost.

I'm your comeback,

I'm your: "Here I am."

Don't waste me, 'cause I won't last long,

and I won't come back,

I'm your: "Here I am."

I'm your, "Here I am."

Slowly it comes around again.

Second time, still it's not sure.

First time I lied, said,

"I'm not ready yet,"

and it slammed the door.

After suffering all the scabs of falling off,

I can lie no more.

Now one last try--

and it's so close by.

In the star light,

in the street light,

in the headlight,

in the house light,

in the half-light,

in the no light,

even then, it's so bright.

You can't help but hear, "Here I am."

Embrace me, I'm your long lost,

I'm your comeback,

I'm your: "Here I am."

Don't waste me, 'cause I won't last long,

and I won't come back,

I won't come back,

I'm your: "Here I am."

I'm your, "Here I am."
