Thinking Of Home
24Nov06

when i think of home
i remember the goodtimes
and not a time being alone
how i wish i'm home

moments with my dear ones
funtimes with friends
if there's a chance i'll do it
will hop a flight back home

it feels good to think
my loved ones are waiting
what brings me here
is a pride on its own

surviving is one thing
but how far can one go
when you care for you loved ones
you don't think twice, you just go

when i think of home
i remember the good times
the best is all there is
just wait, for soon i'll be home

moments with my dear ones
funtimes with friends
i won't miss it when i get a chance
next thing you'll know, i'm already home

Time To Write Songs

A good sign that pinoy bands are here to make waves. The bands have agreed to produce a compilation album next year so everyone I guess are stressed up creating their originals. I'm kickstarting with two songs inspired by a new friend (Awit Ni Mikaela) and a girlfriend 10yrs ago (Her Name). These songs may not necessarily be shortlisted (either by MeshP or Mr. Brosnan?) so I'll just cross my fingers for now and write as many songs as possible.

AWIT NI MIKAELA
by G. Ordinario

gusto na kita ngunit parang me kulang pa
sa tagal ng panahong tayo'y naging magkaibigan
bakit kinailangan mong lumisan, mangibang bayan, ako'y iwan
sana'y magpropose ka na, isasagot ko 'i do' so please itanong mo na

__hindi man, di na rin ako aasa
__pagka't ako'y handa na
__hindi man, hwag nalang
__pagka't ang puso ko'y meron nang iba

minsan ay pinakilala mo ang iyong kaibigan
mabait sya, ngiti nya'y di naalis sa aking isipan
minsa'y busy ka at siya'y aking naabutan
sa starbucks nag-iisa ako'y inimbitahan

o ba't kay bilis naglaho ng pag ibig ko sinta
daig ko pa ang isang kisapmata
tulad mo, ngayon andito lang
subalit bukas ako'y iyong lilisan

gusto na kita ngunit parang me kulang pa
sa tagal ng panahong tayo'y naging magkaibigan
bakit kinailangan mong lumisan, mangibang bayan, ako'y iwan
sana'y magpropose ka na, isasagot ko 'i do' so please itanong mo na

__hindi man, di na rin ako aasa
__pagka't ako'y handa na
__hindi man, hwag nalang
__pagka't ang puso ko'y meron nang iba

di na ko aasa pang muli
kung ikaw ay babalik saka na lamang ngingiti



HER NAME
by G. Ordinario

10 years since we parted
Your face was drawn in my head
The girl who used to own my heart
Is a wallpaper in my mind once again

_I tried recalling her name
_But it was vague, its a shame
_The girl who used to own my heart
_Has a name that's now forgotten

All that is clear till now
were happy times and sweet moments
Scenes of caring, giving, loving
The hell, what's her name again?

Those days we were foolish
No worries, no other cares
Time went really fast and guess what
I still can't remember, fuck!

_I tried recalling her name
_But it was vague, its a shame
_The girl who used to own my heart
_Has a name that's now forgotten

__I knew she'll be in good hands
__And my future was unsure
__For sakes we had, we needed to
__Part ways, and never look back anymore
__It's a pact we had to endure
__Time's healed the wounds, I'm sure

Those days we were foolish
No worries, no other cares
Time went really so fast and guess what
I totally forgotten her name.


I realized theres another one saved in my palm, I wrote this song in the office today.

TAKE ME TO YOUR ROOM
by G. Ordinario

Take me to your room
Where true freedom lies
Let's break every rule
That hinders our destiny

_Any man that drinks your potion
_Receives a doze of affirmation
_A promise engraved in stone
_Doesn't mean you have to be alone

Entice me, despice me
Pour out your energies and hurt me
After you close your eyes
You will know the pain has died

__We are searching for truth
__Till then we'll realize
__Its not the forbidden fruit

A promise engraved in stone
Doesn't mean you have to be alone
