Huling Paalam

Magulo ang aking utak
Bakit sa inyo 'di 'yan tumatak?
Humihingi ako ng tulong
Wala man lang sa aki'y sumalubong
Kaya 'dinaan ko na lang sa bulong
Kaya eto ako, lalong nalulong
Aanhin mo pa ang damo
Kung patay na kabayo mo

Mahirap bang makinig?
Bakit ayaw niyong pakinggan aking panig?
Kahapon pa ko nayayanig
Daig ko pa ang binalot sa banig
Gusto ko lang naman inyong marinig
Kahit hirap na hirap iparating aking tinig
'Di mapakali at nanginginig
Sa takot at lungkot sana inyong narinig

Sabi niyo lilipas din 'yan
Ayusin mo sarili mo bukas wala na 'yan
Pero tinanong niyo ba ako kung bakit?
Bakit ang sakit-sakit, sarap pumikit
Itsura ko tuloy lalong pumapangit
Bakit ba kayo ganyan kalupit?
Sa aking sinapit ayaw ko na tuloy lumapit
Dapat ganito, dapat ganyan pero bakit?

Minsan 'di niyo na kailangan magsalita
Yakap lang maganda na 'yung balita
Hatid nito'y saya ng parang sa mga bata
Isang tapik nga lang tanggal na aking irita
Mahalaga alam kong kahit walang salita
Kahit ako'y madalas pang nakahilata
Pitpitin man paulit-ulit na parang lata
'Di man kayo makata salamat kahit 'di halata

Kailangan ko lang inyong pang-unawa
'Di yung kayo pa ang lumalabas na kawawa
Tampulan na lang lagi ng sisi
Oo na kaya nga eto ako ngayo'y nagsisi
Sa nalalabi kong pang oras
Bibitbitin ko pa rin aking angas
'Di ako ungas kayo lang ang 'di bukas
Paalam wala ng darating na bukas

Moonlight Comfort

The moon is already out
It's shinning so bright
I should not pout
Though everything is in drought
Each and every doubt
I always look to the south

Cover me with your light
Oh I wish I have you tonight
Lift me my spirit with delight
I don't want you out of my sight
Please make this night right
Promise I'll always be your knight

Comfort me as I sigh
I almost wanted to die
You know I'll never ever lie
This heart that wants to see the sky
Clear & without any question why
This time I'll give it a try

Sing me a lullaby
Don't you dare say goodbye
I'll change to keep us high
I'll never again make you cry
Your light will keep us dry
As we walk under the mooonlight

I already said this twice
I'll say it again & roll the dice
I always want it whole not just a slice
Your love that's so nice & those eyes
That comfort all those lies
Now, I feel I'm in paradise

Tonight, I want to feel you
Keep it close & I'll show you
There's no better way to tell you
I love you & everything about you
You're moonlight comfort makes me feel neat
That's why my life now is complete

Saving Grace

Many times I cried
With my two hands tied
As I slowly lose my mind
You were there & was so kind
Oh you never left my side

I was grasping for air
Thinking everything was unfair
Though I know I was aware
You saved me & helped me prepare
What you did is beyond compare

Many times I was scared
I thought nobody really cared
So I gave it all & shared
My everything as you gradually stared
Then I thought I wish this could be repaired

On my darkest nights
You gave so much light
And when I was out of sight
You held me real tight
It felt right & everything was bright

Looking at you right now
I ask myself how
If only you will allow
Follow me then give me a bow
As I prepare our special vow

Huli Na

Akala ko naman ayos ka
Kaya nga ito 'di ko maisplika
Ang linya sa'yong mga musika
Nakakapagtaka sana nagsabi ka

Tahimik ka lang walang reklamo
Sa maliit mong mundo ikaw ang amo
Kung dati ay nagsusumamo
Bakit ngayon parang tutang maamo?

'Di ko man lang nakita
Unti-unti ka na palang naiirita
Iniiwasan mong magbanta
Sa loob pala ikaw ay natataranta

Mahirap isipin alam ko
Mag-isa ka at madalas nabablanko
Para kang ikunulong sa sako
'Di makahinga nakakainis nasan ba ako?

Ako dapat ang iyong takbuhan
Sinubukan mo kaso ikaw ay naunahan
Hirap at sakit iyong naging basehan
Sumuko ka dahil wala ka na maasahan

Ang sakit, bakit ba nakakapagsisi?
Kung hinabaan ko lang sana ang aking pisi
Sana nandiyan ka pa at walang masisisi
Pero sabi nga nila nasa huli ang pagsisisi

Ngayon tahimik ka na
Problema ay 'di mo na alintana
Sa pagsilip mong muli sa bintana
Ngiti ang ipakita salamat at ayos ka na
