Oh, Sunshine Bright

Oh, sunshine bright
don't give me that burning look
'cause I'll be shy
to watch you close.

Oh, sunshine bright
don't hide away from me
'cause I need to see you shine
to make my day aglow.

Of Losing You

I fear not the lightnings
nor the gigantic waves
of the ocean.

I fear not the war
nor the poverty
and hunger.

I fear not the demons
nor the rage
of an angel.

I fear only
...of losing you.

Sana

Kapag ginagawa ay gusto
oras ay hindi pansin
hirap ay hindi alintana...

Sana ay gustuhin mo rin
ang pagdamay sa mga nangangailangan
kahit na ba
may bahagi sa kanilang buhay
na hindi mo gusto.

Warrior

Yes, you're right!
I'm a warrior
but my weapon
is not a gun or a sword
but my hands and feet
because my enemy is hunger
and I'm going
to where I can dig
even potatoes
to fill my empty stomach.

I Already Have Enough (I Got You!)

I got your smile
I got your tears
I got your hopes and dreams
I got your trust
I got your love
I got your time...

There's nothing more I can ask for
'cause I already have enough
.....I got you!

It Won't Be Easy

It maybe easy
to say I love you...
or maybe not.

It maybe easy
to say goodye...
or maybe not.

But it won't be easy
to let you go
for my love for you
is already deeply rooted
...in my heart.

Let's Just Be Happy

I don't belong to you
you don't belong to me
but here we are
together
in a moment of time
surrounded with roses
of many colors
under the rainbow sky...
let's just be happy
before we say goodbye.

Na Kasama Ka (With You)

Maaari bang magpakatatag ka
pagsubok ay iyong lagpasan
sapagkat nais kong matanaw
ang bughaw na kalangitan
at nais ko ring makipaglaro
sa mga alon sa dagat
samyuhin ang mga bulaklak
...na kasama ka.

Feel My Love (I love you.)

Feel my love for you
in the flowers I give you
in my warm loving words
in my kiss
in my embrace
in my gentle touch on your forehead
when you're sick
in my every breath
in my everything...

I love you.

Nothing

I speak of no truth
I speak of no lies
just as the passing wind
no meaning in it's whispers.

I came from nothing
now trying to take everything
which in the end will be nothing
as I go back to nothing.
