Always

I can't get myself to stop thinking
Can't get myself to stay away 
From dreaming to morning 
To the last thought of the day


Your voice is imprinted in memory 
Your smile augments my sight
Your footsteps round every corner 
You're my last prayer at night


Spent all those years in darkness
But now you shine like the sun 
Where there used to be so many
Now there is only one


How could such a darling 
Turn into my most ardent wish
Let me keep you here forever 
And hold you in eternal bliss


Hoping for a new forever
A whole new world to see
And all I'm asking for
Is for you to choose me

Under the lazy moon

Searching & seeking, trying to find the one
An endless carousel of one-time loves
A face without a heart, a heart without a soul
Perfect on paper, but no magic to behold

And through the different people
There was a constant point of view
Why couldn't they all have been a little more like you
And then I realized and that's where it begun
It could be, it had happened, you just might be the one

But there is a complication, a little twist of fate
You've already made a promise
That you don't intend to break
Again my heart has fallen in too late
But I can't make this another one of those mistakes

I can't let you make a wrong decision
If we're supposed to be together, that'll be my mission
Cause love isn't something that's easy to find
You've captivated my heart and taken over my mind

Let me go down in flames if I need to
I know my back's against the wall
But I know that I'm the one who'll complete you
My heart is sure I have no doubts at all

Perhaps one day I'll look back amused
On fate's complicated ruse
Hopefully you'd be beside me then
Wife, lover, best friend

For now I write you letters in the dark
I plan out the ways to win your heart
I miss you in the moments you ignore me
But I know that this decision isn't easy

So to the void I cry out to be heard
Let me be with the love that I deserve
A lifetime is a bad thing to waste
So let's start now and pick up the pace

Kate

The sun, sand, and sea
Bask and let the beauty be
She, a summer's day

Stood up

You say yes
And I'm flying like a jet
I've had my eyes on you
From the moment that we met

We've got a go
And everybody knows
It's gonna be a show
Like you've never seen before

I see that smile
Haven't seen it in a while
Reacting's not my style
But this case it's not on file

A blank screen
You're nowhere to be seen
You're pulling of a hoax
Like all I am's a joke

I stay away
I don't like the way you play
Your game's put me to shame
Or my game's just not the same

But there you go
And there you go again
And I just can't resist
Cause we're more than just good friends

I let you in
Like I haven't learned my lesson
My heart's flying like a kite
And my brain's left out all cussin

I just do
And I don't really know
Why I just can't let you go
You'd think I'd seen it all before

I hate your smile
I hate the way you speak
I hate you every second
And every day of every week

But you already know
You know you've got this
You know you've got me
You are my weakness

Too much

Falling in too deep, too fast, too soon
Left longing for a word, a smile, a glance
Your presence is electric
Our connection instant and lasting
Why can't we be together?

I'm wishing you would call
Leave a message out of the blue
Right now there's nothing more delightful
Than seeing a message from you

Well, except when I'm sitting beside you

I sat down and I could kiss you
I told myself you were everything I didn't need
And you swept away all the doubt
With just the sparkle in your eyes

I miss you
And I can't tell the world
Because this is a battle I can't even be in

We've been here before
And neither was strong enough

Meron pa

Nagwawala, nagiingay, di mapigil, walang humpay
Ngunit wala paring marinig
Saradong mga labi, mapayapang daigdig
Parang wala lang nangyayari
Parang walang mga namatay na bayani

O bakit ba ang tahimik mo?
Ikaw ba ay nababato
Sa lagpak mong karandaman
May pag-asa ka ba bayan?

Hanggang tambay lang nga ba si Juan?
Nakararating kung saan-saan
Ngunit wala paring laman ang tiyan
Konting kurot at subo man lang

Oo ngang bumibirit sa entablado
Bagsak ang kalaban, bugbog sarado
Pero wala paring laman ang plato
Sa ilang butil lang nagsasalo-salo

At bakit ba ayaw natin lumaya?
Dahil ang manlulupid ay sadyang madaya
Wala na tayong ginawa na tama
O, lagi na lang tayong kawawa

Ganyan parati ang kanyang reklamo
Mahina magisip, maliit magplano
Sumusunod-sunod lang kung kani-kanino
Walang konsepto ng ginto

Di marunong makipagsabayan
Hindi handang makipaglaban
Padaos-daos lang
Walang kasunod na hakbang

Masakit marinig, masakit ispipin
Ganyan na lang ang tingin sa atin
Pero sandali kaibigan
May hindi tayo nalalaman

Ang mangaapi, ang kalaban
Ang pumipigil sa aksyon at kaalaman
Sino nga ba sila?
Lumaban nga't magpakita

Ang kunot sa iyong noo
Mawawala pag 'yong natanto
Sa salamin nakatungo
Ang kalaba'y nakatingin sayo

Sino pa ba?

Tayo lang naman kaibigan
Tayo lang ang kailangan
Hinahayaang maapi't maapakan
Kung kaya't di maibigay ang kailangan

Nawala na nga ang mga prayle
At ang mga 'kanong minsan din ay dumiskarte
Pero gusto parin nating magpaalila
Tayo rin ang pumalit sa mga puti't kastila

Hindi pagbangon, hindi pagkilos
Hindi pagsangayon o batikos

Pagbabago lang ng pagiisip at paniniwala

Kahit yun na muna ang gawin nating tama

Hindi masama ang pagiging masaya

Pero maniwala ka na meron at meron pa

Sa atin ang mundo

Maniwala lang sana tayo

Garden view

We're always in the right place
But never the right time
Close, but never close enough

Can we please just break the rules
Right what is wrong
Deal penalty to those not in the plan

We are left pretending
Left with just the here and now
Willing time to stop
Every second, a moment fleeting

There really isn't anything here
There is no universal conspiracy
No magic, no tension, no sparks
No way to keep up the denial

Sometimes you have to let go of something good
And something greater will follow
It's undeniable, without doubt, without question

After all this time
We find ourselves in the same situation
Just say it and I'm yours

When the touch lingers
Don't let it go
This time, I won't turn away
