Draw nearer, you are only one bus stop away.
One bus stop away from my awaited consent.
Go deeper, and you will have your permanent stay.
A stay in my loving heart, to feel more content.
Only draw nearer, and feel the pulse of my love.
Never retreat, or else my love will elude you.
Remain persistent, and prove to me, your truelove.
Seek me ceaselessly, and find your desire's venue.
