Yesterday I told you that
I love you
I told you that you are
My princess

Today, I am telling
You that you are my
future
I am telling you that
Life is nothing without you.
Tomorrow, I will tell you that
I care for you
I will tell you that I
Will never make you cry.
I will tell you that
You are my moon
My stars
And my sun.

I will tell you that
You are the universe
I will tell you that
No matter what they say or do
I will always love you.
So yesterday, today and tomorrow
I will always love you
So please don’t
Pass me by.

Because yesterday I loved you
Today I care for you
And tomorrow I will love
And care for you

— By South Africa’s Agisanang Mokua and Damaria Senne
