Second Chance

Time flew by so fast
Sprang on me a little surprise
Dawned on me one day
I’d have to grow up some day
Too soon or too delayed
The past, too much I’d played
I am what I am today
Cos of who I was yesterday

If I can have a second chance,
Then let me say it again.
If the world was just a game,
Then let me replay it again
I’d take a different path,
I’d choose my destiny.
For in the end
I know I’d be who I want to be.

Lady in Confusion

Torn between two worlds
where does she belong
Here are the possibilities
Living in alternate realities

Unequal forces
Attracting powerfully
Going round in circles
Gravitationally

Love’s centripetal force
Things are out of proportion
Fear’s centrifugal force
Her mind’s a complete distortion

The lady’s in confusion
Gotta get hold of her emotions
The lady’s in confusion
Gotta take better precautions
The lady’s in confusion
Gotta make some decisions
(confusion, emotion, precaution, decision, confusion)

Two distinct life paths
Which road should she walk
This isn’t any charity
Gotta live with it for eternity

Conflicting emotions
It’s tearing her apart
Love’s evil potion
Cupid’s arrow pierced her heart

A million butterflies
Things are out of proportion
If you hear her cries
Her mind’s a complete distortion

The lady’s in confusion
Gotta get hold of her emotions
The lady’s in confusion
Gotta take better precautions
The lady’s in confusion
Gotta make some decisions
(confusion, emotion, precaution, decision, confusion)

Friends, Bicycles, Runway (Friendship on the runway)

Cycling along the runway
Watching the planes fly by
Strangers, from different worlds
Riding on a one way track
Magical, their lives’ paths crossed
Their friendship’s taking off

This is a flight of a lifetime,
And there ain’t no turning back
This departure’s a venture
And every journey an adventure

*This friendship’s a one way ticket
And we are going to make it
Seats up, hold on tight
It might be a bumpy ride

Strolling down the gallery
Viewing through the lens of memory
Pictures after pictures
Together, in rain or shine
We steered along the runway
Landed on a new stage of our lives

That was a flight of a lifetime,
A whole new beginning
This arrival’s an endeavour
We’ve embarked on another adventure

*This friendship’s a one way ticket
And we are going to make it
Seats up, hold on tight
It might be a bumpy ride

Incomplete Story

This is a story about love
This is a song of you and i
Remember the days
When we first began
Remember the times
When we were nothing but good friends

Future Consideration

Have you heard of the sandwich generation?
More things to take into consideration
Get over with the hesitation
It’s time we make some preparation

We’re bound to go through trials and tribulation
It’d be quite a whole new Sensation
Gotta be quick in making our evaluation
It’s time we come to a decision

We can’t just be dependent on the nation
Gotta do something about aging discrimination
And we can do this with determination
Hand in hand in unification

Let the future be our creation
There’s plenty beyond our imagination
Don’t sit around and be patient
Waiting just to collect your pension

So have you heard of the aging population?
More things to take into consideration
Get over with the hesitation
It’s time we make some preparation

Pleased just to be me

I used to care how people look at me
And I used to think a different person I’ve gotta be
I used to see only the flaws in me
And I used to dislike the person I’ve come to be

But all that’s history
I can face the world now and smile with glee
Trying too hard to please
No longer works for me
Because I am not who I used to be
Now I am pleased just to be me
(yeah, pleased just to be me)

I don’t care what they say about me
From today I will be whoever I want to be
I don’t care if people misunderstand me
They just haven’t seen a different side of me

I'm putting an end to my misery
I can face the world now and smile with glee
Trying too hard to please
No longer works for me
Because I am not who I used to be
Now I am pleased just to be me
(yeah, pleased just to be me)

My few liners

When you are feeling sad inside,
I'll be right here with you.

-------------------------------------------------------------------
They say,
Heaven is a place to be
And they say,
This world is for you and me.

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Friends,
They are like the evening stars
You'd find
That some are faint and some are bright

-------------------------------------------------------------------
There is hope
Where there is love
There is life
Where there is light
