Pycno has been pestering
me to post a short entry. He was reminding me that I owe it to all of you,
nice, friendly bloggers out there, to at least have something scribbled
at my site so that when you guys come clicking at my site, tidak lah
hampa sangat. Sama seperti orang datang berkunjung ke rumah. Kalau tak ada kueh atau biskut sekali pun, sekurang-kurang nya angkat lah teh kosong, kan?
I think he has a point there, and furthermore, I know I am going to be very, VERY busy from tomorrow onwards. So, here's my teh kosong to all of you guys. This is one of Pycno's favourite songs, actually. Our only daughter bought Daniel Bedingfield's cassete for his birthday, a couple of years ago. That made him SO happy and he was playing the song over and over again.
So, to everyone here, enjoy the song, and to you pycno, dont pester-pester me again. I'll try to get your Kak Baby (that's how Pycno call his only daughter) to read this entry and listen to the song too... This is also to let DrRoza know that I've not gone hibernating in the Arctic, just somewhere around Setapak and Gombak. "If You're Not The One"
If you’re not the one then why does my soul feel glad today?
If you’re not the one then why does my hand fit yours this way?
If you are not mine then why does your heart return my call
If you are not mine would I have the strength to stand at all
I'll never know what the future brings
But I know you're here with me now
We’ll make it through
And I hope you are the one I share my life with
I don’t want to run away but I can’t take it, I don’t understand
If I’m not made for you then why does my heart tell me that I am?
Is there any way that I can stay in your arms?
If I don’t need you then why am I crying on my bed?
If I don’t need you then why does your name resound in my head?
If you’re not for me then why does this distance maim my life?
If you’re not for me then why do I dream of you as my wife?
I don’t know why you’re so far away
But I know that this much is true
We’ll make it through
And I hope you are the one I share my life with
And I wish that you could be the one I die with
And I pray in you’re the one I build my home with
I hope I love you all my life
I don’t want to run away but I can’t take it, I don’t understand
If I’m not made for you then why does my heart tell me that I am
Is there any way that I can stay in your arms?
‘Cause I miss you, body and soul so strong that it takes my breath away
And I breathe you into my heart and pray for the strength to stand today
‘Cause I love you, whether it’s wrong or right
And though I can’t be with you tonight
You know my heart is by your side
I don’t want to run away but I can’t take it, I don’t understand
If I’m not made for you then why does my heart tell me that I am
Is there any way that I could stay in your arms
Wow, imagine calling Kak Baby, that name, when she's much older! But it would make her feel young through out!
I wonder when can we call it quits and sit back and watch our fruits of toil eh? After a hard day's work, each night, driving alone, all exhausted, I'd ask myself that question but the answer to that seems so far away! (kalau nanti dah tua and tak kerja siapa la nak beri makan yek??? Orang gomen boleh la makan duit pencen. Yang kita ni?? Nampaknya kena kerja sampai bila-bila.....)
Had Daniel Bedingfield released this single when I was courting you Bea, this song could have easily been the song I would have dedicated to you. As you have correctly commented at Inositol's site, Stevie Wonder's "I Just Called To Say I Love You" was our song then. Guess, it still is even right now. Of course, there's also Peabo Bryson, remember?
Salaam.. Awww.. Heheheh.. Pycno, this is one of my favourite song too.. Only I don't have anyone to dedicate it to, heheh.
Hehe... you know what- one of our classmates would sing this song almost every day in class with his shaking voice, out of tune and all... until we get so sick of hearing it. Haha. And on his birthday, this song topped the party's playlist ;p
Ditto iFos! I had a classmate who was always butchering this song too, much to the chagrin to those who loved it. It took me multiple hearings, but I did end up liking this song as well. Very much too :)
Hmm ni macam lagu tema of my life...
Woiitts- Kenakelayan, takkan dok cry every nite on your bed kot?? heheh
Dr Roza - Haha ;) Witty!
I have to admit it that the tune itself is rather infectious. When I was in school, there'd be a number of 'tough' guys who would slowly hum the melody when they felt like nobody was watching theme. They missed me out :P
:) I don't cry often, I think Allah has been kind to me that way. Instead I get a dreamy look on my face and start grinning for no reason...
If Stevie Wonder's 'I Just Called to Say I Love You' is Pycno's and Bea's courting song.. eh, apa courting song kitorang eh? *fikir jap* Macy Grey's 'I Try' comes to mind. Though I have a fondness for Cornershop's 'Brimful of Asha' :D
For old times' sake (and for times yet to come, inshaAllah):
Macy Grey's I Try
Games, changes and fears When will they go from here When will they stop I believe that fate has brought us here And we should be together But we're not
I play it off but I'm dreamin of you I'll keep it cool but I'm fiendin. I try to say goodbye and I choke I try to walk away and I stumble Though I try to hide it, it's clear My world crumbles when you are not near Goodbye and I choke I try to walk away and I stumble Though I try to hide it, it's clear My world crumbles when you are not near
I may appear to be free But I'm just a prisoner of your love I may seem alright and smile when you leave But my smiles are just a front I play it off but I'm dreamin of you I'll keep my cool but I'm fiendin I try to say goodbye and I choke I try to walk away and I stumble Though I try to hide it it's clear My world crumbles when you are not near
Here is my confession May I be your possesion Boy I need your touch Your love kisses and such With all my might I try But this I can't deny
I play it off but I'm dreamin of you I'll keep my cool but I'm fiendin I try to say good bye and I choke I try to walk away and I stumble Though I try to hide it it's clear My world crumbles when you are not near

Aki tak pandai lagu omputeh nih. Zaman Aki mude2 dulu, Aki nyanyi lagu P Ramlee jek, sambel duduk tengok bulan ngambang.
Keneklayan- awok ni betol2 rindu kat O-K yek sampai sanggup menye'pam' comment box orang, hehe...susoh kalau orang angau nih...Aki cadangkan awok cepat2 ler habiskan thesis awok tuh dan balik ler cepat...habis cerite..hehe
salam..
this song used to be 'the song' for me few years back. i searched nearly all music stores in bandaraya shah alam (may i call it pekan here since the city centre is not that big) to buy daniel's cassete. at last i found it just in front of kolej cempaka door, after walked a few km in the city centre. i hope the cassete is still in good condition so that my effort, my energy and the Mara's money dont go to waste..
A friend(memang dia [its a "he"] buat research hal-hal lelaki&wanita ni) kata, for a woman,life really begins at 40...now what cud be the implication(s)?
