谁还记得是谁先说永远的爱我
以前的一句话是我们以后的伤口
过了太久没人记得当初那些温柔
我和你手牵手说要一起走到最后
我们都忘了这条路走了多久
心中是清楚的有一天有一天都会停的
让时间说真话虽然我也害怕
在天黑了以后我们都不知道会不会有遗憾
谁还记得是谁先说永远的爱我
以前的一句是我们以后的伤口
过了太久没人记得当初那些温柔
我和你手牵手说要一起走到最后
我们都累了却没办法往回走
两颗心都迷惑怎么说怎么说都没有救
亲爱的为什么也许你也不懂
两个相爱的人等对方先说找分开的理由
谁还记得爱情开始变化的时候
我和你的眼中看见了不同的天
空走的太远终于走到分岔路的路口
是不是你和我要有两个相反的梦
谁还记得是谁先说永远的爱我
以前的一句话是我们以后的伤口
过了太久没人记得当初那些温柔
我和你手牵手说要一起走到最后
我和你手牵手说要一起走到最后
Ah Bet fell in love with her new golden retriever pup over the weekend, and I fell in love with a new song, JJ Lin's 'Down'… Lyrics below…
down (JJ)
I cant believe it Tell me I'm dreaming
That we are still "we"?
It was amazing Said you were lucky
That you found me
It was on a rainy day that we met
you didn't have a place to go
I said we just met so lets go slow but no
you just told me to keep you from the cold
Sorry I can't take it
Why did u fake it Why did we kiss?
And I'm just down
You left me with a note without a sound
I figured I must have been such a child
You'll never know how much I've been around
How my heart just frowns
If you're down
I'll be your teddy bear, I'll be your clown
I'll take you round and round and
If you don't mind I could be your standing ground
Even if that means I'd drown
And baby, that'll be my one last vow
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Apparently there is a chinese version to this song, which I don't know the title of, (edited: its Shu Nan Sheng Qiao) hehe… coz I'm a bloody illiterate when it comes to the Chinese Language… but I love the melody and the lyrics of both versions, though its probably going to take me a while to understand the Chinese version…
The weekend has been good to me, with Saturday being the MSYC all-day outing at Pasir Ris Park and yesterday spent lazing at home… The weather has been all out to get us though… Saturday started out bright and sunny and freaking hot… then right after lunch, it proceeded to rain down on us like there's no tomorrow… so we had to grab all our stuff and head back to a shelter, which I got stuck at watching bags for the rest of the afternoon… while the team continued with their water games out in the rain… *brrrrr* [erm... i actually love playing in the rain but I seem to have a permanent case of the sniffles this year so I choose to err on the side of caution...] but I quite enjoyed sitting with the bags coz I had great company… Liza was with me half the time till Angelline showed up… and we had a great chat… till the team was done at ard 3.30p.m… oh yes… there was only one interruption which i Absolutely, Positively, HAVE to mention… because someone is anxiously waiting to read about it…
well… halfway through my chat with angelline, Simon came running frantically and grabbed the first aid box… which set my alarm bells ringing, so I jumped up and asked him what was the matter… he responded with a panicky 'someone got cut!!' so i asked, 'who?' he said Haze… [who is, incidentally, the Hazel that's tagged to my blogroll and the person who has been waiting to read this entry...] so i ran with him through the muddy ground and down to beach while asking him how bad the cut was and etc, and all he said was that he saw blood so he ran for the kit…. so I was actually prepared for the worst…
.
.
.
When i actually got to Hazel, i was SHOCKED!!! it turned out that she had an itsy bitsy, teeny-weeny, almost microscopic little splinter in the 3rd toe of her right foot… u know the normal kind of wood splinters that we get in our feet after walking/touching rough wood surfaces…. haiz… and i ran through all the mud for that lor… best thing is that she can still tell me that she's damn afraid of pain and to go slow… so i proceeded to remove it as gently as i could with a safety pin… (coz got no tweezers) with her screaming PAIN PAIN! WALAKEDE! WALAKEDE! (or something like that)… and Liza trying to be funny and making jokes out of the stuff in the first aid box (-.-")*sweat sia* finally got the damn thing out… poured a whole satchet of disinfectant on it and then she hopped off to play again… DRAMA QUEEN right? You should have been there to see it yourself…
Second highlight of the day was actually the 'laopok' van that desmond and the S&R team hired to transport their stuff for the programme and us… sigh… it's really damn retro lar… the gear is located near the steering wheel instead of near the handbrake… and not to mention, everything was threatening to fall apart inside… I was told to shhh though… coz it only cost 30bucks to rent it for a whole day so I guess that like the best deal they can get… well… as long as it serves the purpose… =)
I reached home at close to 5.30p.m…. it was my first time taking a train in SOOOOOOO long… *I know Tere… I'm a pampered spoilt brat brat brat and I absolutely LURVE it… so there!!!* Got home to find out that the girls had quite a bit of drama to deal with regarding the landlord… he finally decided to throw out all his old stuff instead of taking it with him… and… surprise surprise… he again tried to find the cheapest way out to all out requests… get this, he has changed Prat's lacy wisp of cloth to ….. TADA a bloody shower curtain… champion right!!! so the girls told him it wouldnt do… coz it definitely bloody wont function like a curtain is supposed to, i.e.: keep the heat/draft out and etc… and he got pissed off and started raising his voice at them… the cheap bugger… ugh! nvm him… we'll deal with him when we next see him…
the evening was spent lazing around watching ron set up my new ikea dressing table… simple, functional and nice.. but my mirror still isnt big enough to feed the narcissistic side of me… so we'll prob go and get more mirror pieces soon to fix it up… oh yes… I got my first ride in a Hyundai Accent, incidentally, where I heard 'Down' and fell in love with it… Oh yes, also went to Lau Pa Sat for a mutton satay supper!!! YUMYUMYUMMY!! *slurps*
Sunday was spent sleeping in, reading, doing laundry, watching bridget jones i and ii and watching the rain pour down… rain is always so cleansing… not only to the surrounding ground that it falls on, but also to the soul… rainy days always make me feel melancholic and happy in turns…
Woke up late again this morning, was actually looking forward to a fresh start to the day as i slept pretty early last night… but i think i didnt really sleep very well for some reason or the other… sigh… stumbled into the office and the day went as usual, have been procrastinating on finishing this entry, so much so that i've been working on it since 10a.m. and am still here typing away at 5.40p.m… the only reason i've been making progress on this is that its nearing the end of the work day… and my butt is itching to get out of this chair…
Am heading straight to NYC after this for another contingent meeting… apparently some people from the MFA (which is the Ministry of Foreign Affairs) are coming over to brief the team about the relationship between Singapore and Malaysia… this is going to be an interesting talk man… lets see if they've got it right… bah… politics…
okie then, am signing off after rattling on and on and on… write you again tomorrow…
Love,
^C^
Caught this song on the radio early this morning… it's called Ordinary People by John Legend… The harmony is nothing to shout about but the lyrics hit so close to home… It's what I've always been trying to tell you… =) Love you baby…
"Ordinary People"
[Verse 1]
I'm in love with you
This ain't the honeymoon
Past the infatuation phase
Right in the thick of love
At times we get sick of love
It seems like we argue everyday
[Bridge]
I know i misbehaved
And you made your mistakes
And we both still got room left to grow
And though love sometimes hurts
I still put you first
And we'll make this thing work
But I think we should take it slow
[Chorus]
We're just ordinary people
We don't know which way to go
Cuz we're ordinary people
Maybe we should take it slow (Take it slow oh oh ohh)
This time we'll take it slow (Take it slow oh oh ohh)
This time we'll take it slow
[Verse 2]
This ain't a movie no
No fairy tale conclusion ya'll
It gets more confusing everyday
Sometimes it's heaven sent
Then we head back to hell again
We kiss then we make up on the way
[Bridge]
I hang up you call
We rise and we fall
And we feel like just walking away
As our love advances
We take second chances
Though it's not a fantasy
I Still want you to stay
[Chorus]
We're just ordinary people
We don't know which way to go
Cuz we're ordinary people
Maybe we should take it slow (Take it slow oh oh ohh)
This time we'll take it slow (Take it slow oh oh ohh)
This time we'll take it slow
[Verse 3]
Take it slow
Maybe we'll live and learn
Maybe we'll crash and burn
Maybe you'll stay, maybe you'll leave,
maybe you'll return
Maybe another fight
Maybe we won't survive
But maybe we'll grow
We never know baby youuuu and I
[Chorus]
We're just ordinary people
We don't know which way to go
Cuz we're ordinary people
Maybe we should take it slow (Heyyy)
We're just ordinary people
We don't know which way to go
Cuz we're ordinary people
Maybe we should take it slow (Take it slow oh oh ohh)
This time we'll take it slow (Take it slow oh oh ohh)
This time we'll take it slow
Ever The Same – Rob Thomas
We were drawn from the weeds
We were brave like soldiers
Falling down under the pale moonlight
You were holding to me
Like a someone broken
And I couldn't tell you but I'm telling you now
Just let me hold you while you're falling apart
Just let me hold you and we'll both fall down
Fall on me
Tell me everything you want me to be
Forever with you forever in me
Ever the same
We would stand in the wind
We were free like water
Flowing down
Under the warmth of the sun
Now it's cold and we're scared
And we've both been shaken
Hey, look at us
Man, this doesn't need to be the end
Just let me hold you while you're falling apart
Just let me hold you and we'll both fall down
Fall on me tell me everything you want me to be
Forever with you
Forever in me
Ever the same
Call on me
I'll be there for you and you'll be there for me
Forever it's you
Forever in me
Ever the same
You may need me there
To carry all your weight
But you're no burden I assure
You tide me over
With a warmth I'll not forget
But I can only give you love
Fall on me tell me everything you want me to be
Forever with you
Forever in me
Ever the same
Call on me
I'll be there for you and you'll be there for me
Forever it's you
Forever in me
Ever the same
Forever with you
Forever in me
Ever the same(Ever the same)
约定
歌手：光良
说好的三年不见面用我们的爱把时间留住
你笑着说这是我们的考验我们的约定
就这样三年又过了我还是回到这个地方
闭上眼等你的出现空气中吻你的脸
我还记得我们的约定
一辈子幸福的约定
为你写的那首歌
他也偷偷的掉泪了
我还记得我们的约定
我比以前还更爱你了
连那风都笑我了
我想他会告诉你的我更爱你了
就这样三年又过了我还是回到这个地方
闭上眼等你的出现空气中吻你的脸
我还记得我们的约定
一辈子幸福的约定
为你写的那首歌
他也偷偷的掉泪了
我还记得我们的约定
我比以前还更爱你了
连那风都笑我了
我想他会告诉你的我更爱你了
你会记得我们的约定
一辈子幸福的约定
为你写的那首歌
他也偷偷的掉泪了
你会记得我们的约定
我比以前还更爱你了
听着风我也笑了
他一定会告诉你的我更爱你了
"I read a note my grandma wrote back in nineteen twenty-three.
Grandpa kept it in his coat, and he showed it once to me.
He said,"Boy, you might not understand,
but a long, long time ago,Grandma's daddy didn't like me none, but I loved your Grandma so."
We had this crazy plan to meet and run away together.
Get married in the first town we came to, and live forever.
But nailed to the tree where we were supposed to meet,
insteadI found this letter, and this is what it said:
If you get there before I do, don't give up on me.
I'll meet you when my chores are through;I don't know how long I'll be.
But I'm not gonna let you down, darling wait and see.
And between now and then, till I see you again,I'll be loving you. Love, me.
I read those words just hours before my Grandma passed away,
In the doorway of a church where me and Grandpa stopped to pray.
I know I'd never seen him cry in all my fifteen years;
But as he said these words to her, his eyes filled up with tears.
If you get there before I do, don't give up on me.
I'll meet you when my chores are through;I don't know how long I'll be.
But I'm not gonna let you down, darling wait and see.
And between now and then, till I see you again,I'll be loving you. Love, me.
Between now and then, till I see you again,I'll be loving you. Love, me."
This is Love, Me by Collin Raye… I saw the mp3 of this song on my pc last night and i just played it… it was the first time i'd ever payed attention to its lyrics… i remember that Charles was the one who sent this to me… he also mentioned that it is an excellent song… i echo his sentiments totally… this song brought tears to my eyes… as do all songs about love stories in which the people conquer all obstacles to be together and when their love lasts to their very last breath and beyond….
I was reflecting upon the lyrics this morning on the way to work and i realised how similar this song is to Lin JunJie's 'Hui You Na Me Yi Tian'…. amazing…. my next song to conquer at KTV…
