Verse:Naalala ko paNung nililigawan pa lamang kitaDadalaw tuwing gabiMasilayan lamang ang yong mga ngiti

At Ikay sasabihanBukas ng alas siyete sa dating tagpuanBuo ang araw koMarinig ko lang ang mga himig mo

Hindi ko man alam kung nasan kaWala man tayong komunikasyonMag hihintay sayo buong magdamagDahil ikaw ang buhay ko

Chorus:Kung inaakala moAng pag-ibig koy magbabagoItaga mo sa batoDumaan man ang maraming paskoKahit na di mo na abot ang sahigKahit na di mo na ko marinigIkaw pa rin ang buhay ko

Verse:Naalala ko paNung pinapangarap pa lamang kitaHahatid, susunduinKahit mga bituin aking susungkitin[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsty.com/jireh-lim-buko-lyrics.html ]Chorus:Kung inaakala moAng pag-ibig koy magbabagoItaga mo sa batoDumaan man ang maraming paskoKahit na di mo na abot ang sahigKahit na di mo na ko marinigIkaw pa rin ang buhay ko

Bridge:Araw-araw kitang liligawanHaharanahin ka lagiKitang liligawanHaharanahin ka lagi

Chorus:Kung inaakala moAng pag-ibig koy magbabagoItaga mo sa batoPumuti man ang mga buhok koohhhh...

Kung inaakala moAng pag-ibig koy magbabagoItaga mo sa batoDumaan man ang maraming pasko

Kung inaakala moAng pag-ibig koy magbabagoItaga mo sa batoDumaan man ang maraming paskoKahit na kumulubot ang balatKahit na hirap ka nang dumilatKahit na di mo na abot ang sahigKahit na di mo na ako marinigIkaw parin(ikaw pa rin)Ang buhay ko.
