^__^ SABI MO ^__^

Nasa'n ang pag-ibig mo
Dati ay nadarama
Sa puso mo'y naglaho na
Kahit na kasama ka
Para 'kong nag-iisa
Di ba mayro'n ka na ngang iba

Pilit mang isipin na
Ako'y mahal mo pa
Ito'y hindi ko magawa
Wag mo nang itago pa
Kung sadyang ayaw mo na
Sana nga'y lumigaya ka

Chorus

Sabi mo ay ako lamang
Sabi mo ay di iiwan
At sabi mo mahal mo ako
Naniwala sa iyo ang puso ko

Hinahanap pa rin kita
Nais na makita ka
Di man tayong dalawa
Kahit di mo na mahal
Ibigin kita'y bawal

Ang puso ko'y para sa iyo lamang

(Repeat Chorus 2x)

Naniwala sa iyo ang puso ko
Naniwala sa iyo ang puso ko
