I’m so excited with this entry coz finally I will put to rest my most controversial entry ever: The One That Got Away. This has generated a lot of discussions between Jher and I which boiled down to difference in perspectives. So to move forward, I want my next entry to celebrate the NOW. The last entry was a celebration of the joys of liberating ourselves from our past. This entry is to recognize and honor my present, my current northern star, my east where the sun shines, and my west where the sun sets. So, to my Jher, eventhough you will never have the title of, The One Who Got Away, what’s important is you have the most important title now: you are THE ONE I LOVE…
So, in celebration of my happiness, let me share with you, our theme song (which I unilaterally decided for both of us–but later he concurred. Hahahahaha!). I give you, ALL OF MY LIFE :
ALL OF MY LIFE
By Barbara Streisand
(Sung In the Melody of “I Finally Found Someone” )
Hmmmm…
I was alone You were alone
Parallel lines that touched one another
Just feeling our way
Lost in the dark
Drawn to each other.
So much to say and so much to do
So much of you for me to discover
Like what makes you laugh
And what makes you cry
How does a friend become a lover too?
Chorus:
I’ve waited all of my life to find
Someone who’ll need my heart and read my mind
To light my days and warm my nights
Someone I know I could call My “someone” for all my life.
Hmmm….
Looking at you, looking at me
Lovin’ the look of love that I see there
I find when I look deep in your heart
Reflections of me there…
(Repeat Chorus except last three lines)
Coda:
And now that I’m in your arms
Everything’s new
All that I feel tells me its true
All that I ask is all of my life
With you…
–oOo–
If I know how to podcast, I would have sung this for all of you and dedicate it to my luvah…
Kayo? You have a theme song? Kahit yung dati pa ha?
P.S.(Damn! Kailangan talaga sumipsip nang husto para makabawi. Hahahahaha!)
kinda burn my ear hearing those words “i give you all my life” binigay ba? hindi stars oo.. hehehe (suntok pala) btw its really sweet when some tells you.. “i’ll give my all”
yup meron din ako… tagalog fave ko
“Sa Aking Puso..” kinakanta ko ito pag nag vivideoke hehhe kinda corny pero masaya..
My theme song is “What Kind of Fool Am I” by Anthony Newly and Leslie Bricusse from the play “Stop the World, I Wanna Get Off” and popularized my my favorite showman, Sammy Davis Jr.
Here’s a the short version…
What kind of fool am I?
Who never fell in love?
It seems that I’m the only one…
That I have been thinking of.
What kind of man is this?
An empty shell…
A lonely cell in which,
An empty heart must dwell.
What kind of lips are these?
That lie with every kiss…
That whispered empty words of love,
That left me alone like this?
Why can’t I fall in love?
Like any other man?
And maybe then, I’ll know…
What kind of fool I am.
Man, those are pretty powerful lyrics. They don’t write em like they use to. 🙂
I hope your Now and Present, would be forever too. Good luck to both of you.
Hey snglguy, di mo pa lang nami-meet magpapatibok ng puso mo!
ang sweet niyo naman. 🙂 langgam!
Babe I introduced this song to you remember? And it is not a unilateral decision naman. LOL. Bumabawi ka ha. Hahahahahaha. Wabyu!
Uy, na-inspire ako to write about our theme song, too!
Sige nga, alam niyo ba yung “Anyone at All” by Carole King? That’s part of the OST of You’ve Got Mail.
🙂
hmm…parang mas pinaghirapan yung “the one that got away” entry. pinaglamayan at pinagisipang mabuti. eto…lyrics ng kanta, cut and paste. nilagyan ng spaces sa gitna para humaba.
buwahahaahahaha! lagot ka.
kidding. >;)
intrigero! hahahahahah… come to think of it… oo nga no? LOL 😛
I once was introduced to the boyfriend of our kasambahay, who said, “Koya, si Dodong, ka-theme song ko po.”
Laban?????!!
Sa aking puso by ariel rivera
Uulit-ulitin ko sa `yo
Ang nadarama ng aking puso
Ang damdamin ko’y para lang sa `yo
Kahit kailanma’y hindi magbabago
Chorus:
Ikaw ang laging hanap hanap sa gabi’t araw
Ikaw ang nais kong sa tuwina ay natatanaw
Ikaw ang buhay at pag-ibig
Wala na ngang iba
Sa `king puso’y tunay kang nag-iisa
`Di ko nais na mawalay ka
Kahit sandali sa aking piling
Kahit buksan pa ang dibdib ko
Matatagpua’y larawan mo
(Repeat Chorus)
Kahit buksan pa ang dibdib ko
Matatagpua’y larawan mo
love this song so much gusto ko lng i share a inyo… hehehe
ang landi… hahaha.. so sweet. ako din one day. i think i better suit that term “the one who got away”. hahaha
ang sweeeeeeet. 🙂 go bridget, go! 😀 can’t think of any theme song??? gawd. do we need to have one? hehe…
Kilig to death naman ako sa inyo talaga.. Alan’s and my theme song which we danced to during are wedding are Jaya’s IKAW LAMANG and the classic OUR LOVE IS HERE TO STAY. Sniff, Sniff..
How sweet ng bawi mo, sistah. Jher, sigurado ako kilig ka niyan. Well, kami ni hubby ay iyong Something New in My Life at saka I love You More than You’ll Ever know.
owen – aba, videoke champion yata ito. challenge? hehehehe.
snglguy – oh, i love the old songs! i love singing this song too. i agree, nobody makes lyrics that are as witty, funny, sweet, and loving all at the same time. Take Billie Holiday’s “These Foolish Things” for example:
A cigarette that bears a lipstick’s traces
An airline ticket to romantic places
And still my heart has wings
These foolish things remind me of you
A tinkling piano in the next apartment
Those stumbling words I told you what my heart meant
A fair ground’s painted swings
These foolish things remind me of you
You came, you saw, you conquered me
When you did that to me
I knew somehow this had to be…
The winds of march would make my heart a dancer
The telephone that rings but who’s to answer
Oh how the goats tell you, “pleeeaaase”
These foolish things remind me of you….
Ugh. I just sang it while typing it (imagining that I was leaning over the piano, of course. hahahaha)
curacha – thanks! i hope so too.
atticus – syempre, mare. dapat kasi bumawi talaga. hahahahaha!
mauie – mare!!! salamat at ni-link mo ako sa iyong entry. cute nung theme song. downloaded it. 🙂
duke – hoy. langya ka talaga. miss na kita, doc!
dylan – hindi ko kinaya, gurl…
yuri – mare, just keep the faith. sabi nga ng ating dyosang si Cher: The right one will come but it doesn’t mean we cannot have fun with the wrong ones. taray talaga ng lola mez, devah? hahahaha!
karol – mare, cute na meron syempre. miss na kita, gang! pati si tintin…
dinna – i love OUR LOVE IS HERE TO STAY!!! sniff, sniff talaga, mare…
Lani – kurak. my golly! kinanta ko yan sa isang acoustic show na inorganize ng mga estudyante. (memories ito)
Hindi siya bawi hanggang magpodcast ka. Hehehe.
Tweet niyo talaga! 🙂
Kami ni H, wala atang theme song. Pero when we hear Blue’s “Best in Me” nasesenti kami, so siguro yun. You bring out the best in me, like no one else can do… that’s why I’m by your side, that’s why I love you…
