IT'S NOT THE SAME

It’s not the same since you walked out of my life

I can't feel my heartbeat, am scared it wouldn't survive

I have been fighting with these feelings for decade

I could never understand why been around you makes me feel like a child

The sky is never far from reach whenever you're around

The sun kisses the moment I met you, our hearts it completely bond

Every morning I walk by the sea, hoping the waves would wash you ashore

Am not been selfish, just want to hold you in my arms once more

CALL ME AN ANGEL

All through April I wore a smile

The candle light in my heart burning high

But the cold wind gives my feeling the chill

It became broken but never ill

The grasses are greener this season

But I couldn't find water to quench the taste within

I’ve got no way out of this on my own

I don't think I can cope, can't hang on alone

Please, call me an angel to ease this pain

Maybe a touch from him will make my day sane

I don't want to be weary searching for love

All I ask is a kiss to my heart of his love

NOT LIKE YESTERDAY

You told me you are doing fine

Search your heart and tell me it's not a lie

Thought I'll find your smile between the stars

But it's blown away and left behind a scar

So I looked deep down the moments spent with you

Don't see you hugging me in my dreams, not like you used too

Why are you hiding your feelings behind a fragile smile?

Why you spending the night all alone, when I could lend you mine?

The storm's coming; please don't get your emotion tossed away

Don't need to change the way you feel about me today

I am not leaving without a piece of you in my heart stay

Can't let this guilt go astray, not like yesterday

I CAN

I can be who I want to be

If I can work hard will achieve my dream

Long days on the street hustling for a life deserved

Little kids from childhood need have a decent life

Life nowadays isn’t what it's meant to be

Struggling to make a mark in a world that’s crowded

The future is blurring but success I crave

Like the stars, efforts given will grow and thrive

Wouldn't let the distance get me weary of my dreams

I'll work hard, in no time get the heart wishes

The future's brighter with efforts here and there

I can make it and become who I want to be

WHEN YOU SEE A CHILD CRYING

When you see a child crying

It means the world isn’t satisfy

Every day on the street, dreams are perishing

Children are gifts with hope strengthen

God is sleepless justifying is love for mankind

But man is so selfish and greedy all his life

The world's getting out of hand, children paying the price

If life is unfair, the reason and fault is man

THE QUEST

In the middle of the storm 
A lonely heart seeks refuge 
Walks a thousand miles 
Unwary despite the night's timid 

The journey seems to last forever 
Fate strangled, but the heart stood strong 
She knows somewhere out there in the world 
Hiding behind the cloud is true love

HEART LIKE A DIAMOND

You've got a heart like a diamond

Precious, it sparks fill the sky

Every one you touch, leave unforgettable memory

You wear a smile that’s so addictive

Your heart doesn't lose her complexion

It makes the world exceptionally fine

In your heart jealousy or pride don't reside

But love, care and affection

It's no wonder I get attracted to you

Beside the fact you are remarkably beautiful

You've got the touch which leaves one appreciable

A diamond in the marking, that’s the person you are

NO PROMISES

I don't promise to be a heroine

That I can take away your pain

I don't promise to be a princess

That I will always make you smile

I don't promise to be perfect

That your heart wouldn't get broken

I don't promise to be romantic

That your emotion wouldn't get hurt

I don't promise to be a servant

To warm your feet when they are weak

I don't promise to be your ideal woman

That I can meet all your need

You've got to take me for who I am

Be patient and don't stop cuddling me

Hold me gently my imperfection

I could be an angel lost inside
