I Have You
I have always been a dreamer
Followed visions of my own
I was born to belong
To the lines of a song
And make them my home
I believe in happy endings
Though I've only known a few
For as rare as they are
Like a bright falling star
I found one in you
Sometimes All the world can seem so
Friendless
And the road ahead so
Endless
And the dream so far away
Sometimes
When I'll almost
To surrender
Then I stop
And I remember
I have you
To save my day
Often my imagination
Has me reaching out too far
When I fell you were there
With your hand in the air
You knew from the start
Sometimes
After all you've done
To save me
Thru the love you freely
Gave me
Every step along the way
Going
And in truth, it comes from
Knowing
I have you
To save my day
Sometime
Feeling helpless
When I held you
Wishing words would come
To tell you
I have you
To save my day

Why I went to the Movie Theather
"I want to watch in movie theaters because I want to sing our National Anthem!"
Moved by the article written by Isagani Cruz, of the Philippine Daily Inquirer dated today, May 15, 2005 on not singing the National Anthem in moviehouses and Duty Free Shops, well, me I want to sing it! I recently watched "Can This Be Love" in Market Market and we were on the last full show, they normally play it on the last show, we were only 4 or 6 people in the cinema. We were eating Greenwich pizza, chicken and spaghetti when it was played. Irwin do not want to stand up. We were holding this big styro with food and we have to stand up. I stood up, I sang, it was new, now this is by the Hukbong Pangdagat, so Philippine Marines were shown. =) Everybody else was standing honoring the National Anthem. So far, I never encountered anybody not standing while the National Anthem was being played. Well, maybe once because they were foreigners, someone asked them to stand up. They stood up.
Why do I stand up? Because, I do not want to wait for the time when singing the National Anthem would get me killed. I want to sing it freely, like a real Filipino. Back in high school, I was given a chance to sing the anthem, to lead everybody in singing it. It felt good, though I missed some notes.
I liked it when Lani Misalucha sang it in the Pacquiao Boxing in Las Vegas. I feel proud to be a Filipino.
Was it the location? Filipinos in Duty Free Paranaque and moviehouses in the same area do not stand up when the Lupang Hinirang was played? Was it the social status? well, we frequently watch at Eastwood and Shangrila but I never encountered it. Everybody was respectful of the National Anthem. People going to this cinema are rich because they can afford it, well, they are well mannered but I do not know why people in Duty Free Shops in Paranaque do not stand up.
do not want to sing any other National Anthem. I only want Lupang Hinirang, whether in Tagalog, English or Spanish. I know it and I can sing it.

My Gown
I went to Bagong Ilog to get my Wedding Banns permission from the parish priest of my church. I never had a chance to pass by the C5 road, because my office is in Ortigas. I love passing by C5, because that is the only time I can see my gown shown in the display window of LINOI's shop. I looked at it longingly, remembering the time I tried it on. Everybody outside was looking at me, inside trucks, cars, even buses, they looked at me in the traffic.
I felt beautiful, I never thought a single wedding gown could make you more beautiful. I've lost some weight becuase of the pressure my job brings. I do not have to worry losing weight, I am losing it naturally.
I can't wait till my next fitting, by then, maybe I'd bring my veil, trail and a simple flower boquet to complete that bridal look.

Rainbow
Rainbow
Fallin' out, fallin' in
Nothing's sure in this world no, no
Breakin' out, breakin' in
Never knowin' what lies ahead
We can really never tell it all no, no, no
Say goodbye, say hello
To a lover or friend
Sometimes we never could understand
Why some things begin then just end
We can really never tell it all no, no, no
But oh, can't you see
That no matter what happens
Life goes on and on
So baby, just/please smile
Coz im always around you
And ill make you see how beautiful
Life is for you and me
Take a little time baby
See the butterflies color's
Listen to the birds that were sent
To sing for me and you

Even if there is pain now
Everything would be all right
For as long as the world still turns
There will be night and day

Hanggang
My song today is Hanggang from "Dekada 70" movie, sung by Wency Cornejo.
Ilang ulit mo nang
Itinatanong sa akin
Kung hanggang saan
Hanggang saan, hanggang kailan
Hanggang kailan magtatagal
Ang aking pagmamahal
Hanggang may himig pa akong naririnig
Dito sa ating daigdig
Hanggang may musika akong tinataglay
Kita'y iniibig
Giliw huwag mo sanang isipin
Ikaw ay aking lilisanin
'Di ko magagawang
Lumayo sa 'yong piling
At nais kong malaman mo
Kung gaano kita kamahal
Hanggang ang diwa ko
Tanging sa 'yo laan
Mamahalin kailanman
Hanngang pag-ibig ko'y
Hanggang walang hanggan
Tanging ikaw lamang
Hanggang may puso akong marunong magmahal
Na ang sinisigaw ay laging ikaw
Hanggang saan, hanggang kailan, hanggang kailan kitang mahal
Hanggang ang buhay ko'y kunin ng Maykapal
CHORUS 2
Giliw huwag mo sanang isipin
Ikaw ay aking lilisanin
'Di ko magagawang
Lumayo sa iyong piling
Hanggang may pag-ibig
Laging isisigaw tanging ikaw
Hanggang may pag-ibig
Laging isisigaw tanging ikaw
Ilang ulit mo nang
Itinatanong sa akin
Kung hanggang saan
Hanggang saan, hanggang kailan
Hanggang kailan magtatagal
Ang aking pagmamahal
Hanggang may himig pa akong naririnig
Dito sa ating daigdig
Hanggang may musika akong tinataglay
Kita'y iniibig
Giliw huwag mo sanang isipin
Ikaw ay aking lilisanin
'Di ko magagawang
Lumayo sa 'yong piling
At nais kong malaman mo
Kung gaano kita kamahal
Hanggang ang diwa ko
Tanging sa 'yo laan
Mamahalin kailanman
Hanngang pag-ibig ko'y
Hanggang walang hanggan
Tanging ikaw lamang
Hanggang may puso akong marunong magmahal
Na ang sinisigaw ay laging ikaw
Hanggang saan, hanggang kailan, hanggang kailan kitang mahal
Hanggang ang buhay ko'y kunin ng Maykapal
CHORUS 2
Giliw huwag mo sanang isipin
Ikaw ay aking lilisanin
'Di ko magagawang
Lumayo sa iyong piling
Hanggang may pag-ibig
Laging isisigaw tanging ikaw
Hanggang may pag-ibig
Laging isisigaw tanging ikaw

This is his Song
This song was included in the soundtrack of the movie "Kailangan Ko'y Ikaw" starring Regine Velasquez and Robin Padilla. I don't know this song, but Irwin had this mp3 in his car. He was playing it and was singing with Ely Buendia. Surprise! Surprise! He said this song was for me. I do not know what to say so I just listened to the music. Flattering. It was so flattering.
"Suntok sa buwan ka lang nung araw tanging irog ko
Sa ganda mo at bait ay hindi ko akalain
Puso ko'y hinakip sa dilim
Karibal ko ay hindi pinansin
Rumimate nalang sa bandang hulihan
Suntok sa buwan
Panalo, akin ka lang".
"Suntok sa buwan ka lang nung araw tanging irog ko
Sa ganda mo at bait ay hindi ko akalain
Puso ko'y hinakip sa dilim
Karibal ko ay hindi pinansin
Rumimate nalang sa bandang hulihan
Suntok sa buwan
Panalo, akin ka lang".

SUNTOK SA BUWAN
by: Ely Buendia
Sabi nila na hindi ko raw makakaya
Ang lumapit sayo mag-isa magpakilala
Sabi nila malakas daw ang aking loob
Sinuswerte daw ba ako mag isip na tayong dalawa ay magmahalan
Tingnan mo ngayon sino na nga bang nakatawa
Pag tayo'y ay naglalakad o di ba tahimik na lang sila
Sa dami noon na nangligaw sayong poging
Nakapilang baldeng pabling
Sino ba mag akalang tayo'y ay magmamahalan
Magkatuluyan
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
CHORUS:
Suntok sa buwan ka lang nung araw tanging irog ko
Sa ganda mo at bait ay hindi ko akalain
Puso ko'y hinakip sa dilim
Karibal ko ay hindi pinansin
Rumimate nalang sa bandang hulihan
Suntok sa buwan
Panalo, akin ka lang
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
Sabi nila na hindi nga raw tayo bagay
Mapapansin mo lang daw ako kung mawawalan ka ng malay
Sabi nila kailangan ng isang himala, di ka raw madaan sa tiyaga
Tingnan mo kung sino na ang siyang nakatunganga
Humanga
