[English]

I don't want love (I don't want love)

If love isn't from you (if love isn't from you)

I don't want her (I don't want her)

If she isn't you (if she isn't you)

You're always on my mind, that's how much I care

I can't think of a time, that you weren't there

I know that I'd be lying if I didn't want you here

'Cause, baby, I'm in love, and why can't you just live near?

Ngano layo kay ka? Wala ta'y mabuhat

Kung diri ka sa akong tupad

Adto ta'g cinema, human mangaon ta

Kaon bisa'g asa, ika'y pili, ako'y bayad, ako ra'y bahala

...

Ako ra'y bahala

...

Why do you live so far (why do you live so far?)

Sayanga kung LDR (sayanga kung LDR)

'Cause I know what happens to them

They always fall apart

But now you've changed my mind (but now you've changed my mind)

'Cause you're the girl I want in life (you're the girl I want in life)

I want you to have my heart

You're mine and I am yours

I don't want love (I don't want love)

If love isn't from you (if love isn't from you)

I don't want her (I don't want her)

If she isn't you (if she isn't you)

You're always on my mind, that's how much I care

I can't think of a time that you weren't there

I know that I'd be lying if I didn't want you here

'Cause, baby, I'm in love, and why can't you just live near?

You're always on my mind, that's how much I care

I can't think of a time that you weren't there

I know that I'd be lying if I didn't want you here

'Cause, baby, I'm in love, and why can't you just live near?

But now you've changed my mind

'Cause you're the girl I want in life

I want you to have my heart

You're mine and I am yours
