Suatu kisah mesra
Daku dengan dia
Terpaut usia antara kita berdua
Asmara hanya impian

Suka duka kita
Daku takkan lupa
Segala yang ada hanya untuk dirimu

Yang termanis dan tercipta entah kelak

Daku tetap menanti
Walau ku harus sendiri dalam sepi
Daku masih mengharap dirimu
Aku tetap cinta

Suka duka kita
Daku takkan lupa
Segala yang ada hanya untuk dirimu
Yang termanis dan tercipta entah kelak

Daku tetap menanti
Walau ku harus sendiri dalam sepi
Daku masih mengharap dirimu
Aku tetap cinta

Segala yang ada hanya untuk dirimu
Yang termanis dan tercipta entah kelak

Daku tetap menanti
Walau ku harus sendiri dalam sepi, ooh
Daku masih mengharap dirimu
Aku tetap cinta

Aku tetap cinta, ooh
Aku tetap cinta
