i look to you

As I lay me down
Heaven hear me now
I’m lost without a cause
After giving it my all

Winter storms have come
And darkened my sun
After all that I’ve been through
Who on earth can I turn to?

Chorus:
I look to you,
I look to you
After all my strength is gone
In you I can be strong
aI look to you,
I look to you
And when melodies are gone In you I hear a song
I look to you

'bout to lose my breath
There's no more fighting left
Sinking to rise no more
Searching for that open door

And every road that I've taken
Led to my regret
And I don't know if I'm go'n make it
Nothing to do but lift my head


My levees are broken
My walls are coming down on me
My rain is falling
Defeat is calling
I need you to set me free
Take me far away from the battle
I need you
Shine on me!

RIP my favourite singer WHITNEY HOUSTON.
Thank you for all your amazing songs that accompanied me throughout my tough journey over the years from college to my marriage life.All your lyrics rhymed with all the feelings I had. Your voice was a melody sent from heaven to heal my soul. Greatest Love of All was the first song that inspired me succeed in my career and wanting to be the best mother. I'll never forget your movie BODYGUARD and all the inspirational songs like : I didn't know my own strength. Did't we almost had it all and of course your amazing: I wanna dance with somebody who loves me always got me thru my art projects and ready for my girls parties. I was always looking out for your new songs and the last one was this : I look to you that make me strong thru my ordeal alone in 2009. Thank you for being there. May your tired soul now rest in peace eternally with the Lord.

crawling back to you

Lessons learned, bridges burned to the ground,
And it's too late now to put out the fire,
Tables turned, and I'm the one who's burning now,
Well I'm doing alright,
'Til I close my eyes
And then I see your face,
And it's no surprise.

[Chorus:]
Just like that I'm crawling back to you,
Just like you said I would yeah,
I swallow my pride,
Now I'm crawling back to you,
I'm out of my head,
Can't wait any longer,
Down on my knees, I thought I was stronger,
Just like that, like you said I'd do,
I'm crawling back to you.

Time can heal, but the scars only hide the way you feel,
And it's hard to forget how I left you hanging
On by a thread, when everything is said, I will regret it, yeah,
I was doin' alright, thought I could make it,
Then I see your face and it's hard to fake it.

[Chorus:]
Just like that I'm crawling back to you,
Just like you said I would yeah,
I swallow my pride,
Now I'm crawling back to you,
I'm out of my head,
Can't wait any longer,
Down on my knees, I thought I was stronger,
Just like that, like you said I'd do,
I'm crawling back to you.

If you could find a way, to forgive everything, I know you would.
And I would take it all back, give if only I knew that I could.

Lessons learned, bridges burned to the ground.
And it's too late now, to put out the fire.

Just like that I'm crawling back to you,
Just like you said I would yeah,
I swallow my pride,
Now I'm crawling back to you,
I'm out of my head,
Can't wait any longer,
Down on my knees, I thought I was stronger,
Just like that, like you said I'd do,
I'm crawling back to you.

I'm crawling back to you [3x]

记得那一年 那一段岁月

一个小小的家园 天天都怀念

心若能放开一点 路就宽一些
Xīn ruò néng fàng kāi yīdiǎn lù jiù kuān yīxiē

English Translation


I am crying right now while looking at your eyes
I am crying looking at your heart painfully
The innocently (face with) the bitter smile on that expression
I want to keep you in like a fool those beautiful dreams and shabby look
day by day your appearance create good memories
I remember from your delicate hands to your tousled hair
(Forever you) You are so beautiful
(Forever you) You are so beautiful come into my heart, penetrate in (into my heart) come closer (to my heart) and those swelled up wounds of yours
(Forever you) You are so wonderful
(Forever you) You are so beautiful
that died-off love of yours too and your tears too wipe away my wounded pain
I love you I love you
Now, I want to hug the you who hover alone at the end of this heartless world
day by day my love consulate your heart.
In your appearance afflicted with wound, memories are filled
(Forever you) You are so beautiful
(Forever you) You are so beautiful come into my heart, penetrate in (into my heart) come closer (to my heart) and those swelled up wounds of yours
(Forever you) You are so wonderful
(Forever you) You are so beautiful that died-off love of yours too and your tears too wipe away my wounded pain
I love you I love you
for you
Don’t forget it even for a single moment.
Remember how much, how much exactly did we loved for you
(Forever you) You are so beautiful
(Forever you) You are so beautiful come into my heart,
penetrate in (into my heart) come closer (to my heart) and those swelled up wounds of yours
(Forever you) You are so wonderful (Forever you)
You are so beautiful that died-off love of yours too and your tears too wipe away my wounded pain
I love you I love you
I want to live with memories of you

dedicated to the late kristine,

u left us last july...
i just wish you had a few more months to live and watch this drama...
it;s so related to you except the missing prince charming.
hope you met uncle leslie and having a ball with him now in heaven.

Rest in peace, my old friend.

it will rain

If you ever leave me baby,
Leave some morphine at my door
‘Cause it would take a whole lot of medication
To realize what we used to have,
We don’t have it anymore.

There’s no religion that could save me
No matter how long my knees are on the floor
So keep in mind all the sacrifices I’m makin’
Will keep you by my side
Will keep you from walkin’ out the door.

[Chorus]
Cause there’ll be no sunlight
If I lose you, baby
There’ll be no clear skies
If I lose you, baby
Just like the clouds
My eyes will do the same, if you walk away
Everyday it will rain, rain, rain...

I’ll never be your mother’s favorite
Your daddy can’t even look me in the eye
Oooh if I was in their shoes, I’d be doing the same thing
Sayin there goes my little girl
Walkin’ with that troublesome guy
But they’re just afraid of something they can’t understand


Oooh well little darlin’ watch me change their minds
Yeah for you I’ll try I’ll try I’ll try I’ll try
I’ll pick up these broken pieces ’til I’m bleeding
If that’ll make you mine

[Chorus]
Cause there’ll be no sunlight
If I lose you, baby
There’ll be no clear skies
If I lose you, baby
Just like the clouds
My eyes will do the same if you walk away
Everyday it will rain, rain, rain...

[Bridge]
Don’t just say, goodbye
Don’t just say, goodbye
I’ll pick up these broken pieces ’til I’m bleeding
If that’ll make it right

[Chorus]
Cause there’ll be no sunlight
If I lose you, baby
There’ll be no clear skies
If I lose you, baby
Just like the clouds
My eyes will do the same if you walk away
Everyday it will rain, rain, rain...



**************************

Goodbye to all the rainy days of 2011.
In another 3 hours it will be 2012!
May it be a peaceful year ahead.

move like jagger

Just shoot for the stars
If it feels right
Then aim for my heart
If you feel like

And take me away, make it okay
I swear I'll behave
You wanted control
So we waited

I put on a show
Now I make it
You say I'm a kid
My ego is big

I don't give a sh*t
And it goes like this
Take me by the tongue
And I'll know you
Kiss me till you're drunk
And I'll show you

You want the moves like jagger
I've got the moves like jagger
I've got the mooooooves... like jagger
I don't need try to control you

Look into my eyes and I'll own you
With them the moves like jagger
I've got the moves like jagger
I've got the mooooooves... like jagger

Maybe it's hard
When you feel like you're broken and scarred
Nothing feels right
But when you're with me

I make you believe
That I've got the key
So get in the car
We can ride it

Wherever you want
Get inside it
And you want to steer
But I'm shifting gears
I'll take it from here
And it goes like this



***********************
