my version of love story, originally by taylor swift

We were both young when I first saw you
I close my eyes and the flashback starts
I'm standing there on the road doing merentas desa
See the students, see them chase the prize
See you make your way through the crowd
And say hello, little did I know

That you were Harith
You were throwing pebbles
And my mama said stay away from Amirah
And I was crying in my room
Begging you please don't go

And I said
Harith, take me somewhere we can be alone
I'll be waiting, all there's left to do is run
You'll be the prince and I'll be the princess
It's a love story, baby, just say yes

So I sneak out to basketball court to see you
We keep quiet 'cause we're dead if they knew
So close your eyes, escape this pit hole of sri kenangan for a while

Oh, oh, oh

'Cause you were Harith,
and my mama hate you
And my mama said stay away from Amirah
But you were everything to me
I was begging you please don't go

And I said
Harith, take me somewhere we can be alone
I'll be waiting, all there's left to do is run
You'll be the prince and I'll be the princess
It's a love story, baby, just say yes

Harith save me, they're trying to tell me how to feel
This LOVE is difficult, but it's REAL
Don't be afraid, we'll make it out of this mess
It's a love story, baby, just say yes

I got tired of waiting, wondering if you were ever coming around
My faith in you was fading
When I met you at kedai mamak kader

And I said
Harith save me, I've been feeling so alone
I keep waiting for you but you never come
Is this in my head, I don't know what to think
He knelt to the ground and he pulled out a ring
And said

Marry me, Amirah, you'll never have to be alone
I love you and that's all I really know
I talked to your dad, you'll pick out a white dress
It's a love story, baby, just say yes
