I think I've recovered a bit from the bouts of loneliness and longing last weekend. I stopped crying, which is a good thing right?  During that day, Dodong also managed to share with me a few more songs. (He really is more of the music person versus myself). And how fortunate of me to stumble upon the music video of the song on YouTube, featuring Clark Kent and Lana Lang of Smallville, which is one of THE most favorite TV shows of Dodong.

Here are the lyrics of the song…

This time, This place
Misused, Mistakes
Too long, Too late
Who was I to make you wait
Just one chance
Just one breath
Just in case there's just one left
'Cause you know,
you know, you know

[CHORUS]
That I love you
I have loved you all along
And I miss you
Been far away for far too long
I keep dreaming you'll be with me
and you'll never go
Stop breathing if
I don't see you anymore

On my knees, I'll ask
Last chance for one last dance
'Cause with you, I'd withstand
All of hell to hold your hand
I'd give it all
I'd give for us
Give anything but I won't give up
'Cause you know,
you know, you know

[CHORUS]

So far away
Been far away for far too long
So far away
Been far away for far too long
But you know, you know, you know

I wanted
I wanted you to stay
'Cause I needed
I need to hear you say
That I love you
I have loved you all along
And I forgive you
For being away for far too long
So keep breathing
'Cause I'm not leaving you anymore
Believe it
Hold on to me and, never let me go
Keep breathing
'Cause I'm not leaving you anymore
Believe it
Hold on to me and, never let me go
Keep breathing
Hold on to me and, never let me go
Keep breathing
Hold on to me and, never let me go

I really forgive Dodong for being far away too long (6 months and 21 days in fact). And yes, I am definitely not leaving. Him being away gives me a chance to REALLY, REALLY, REALLY look forward to something good in the near future.

Did you also forgive him for being far away from you?

Love the distance,
