If Only

Last nite, I took time out to watch a 30" home video -a travelogue to a nearby city in the midst of a beautiful spring. To be honest, it was like watching a full length uncut music video.

Two creatures, strolling through the park, sitting side by side, just smiling, laughing, making funny faces, and giving occasional looks of admiration -- all the simple gestures of friendship...or wait-then again, maybe it was a little more than that ;P

Anyway, even though I wasn't there with them, I was overjoyed-thrilled-excited (you name it) to see the footage. In retrospect, I think it was so much better for me to see this on tape rather than being there in person. For you know, sometimes, the camera, the people around you, the world, and even an ever loud-sometimes obtrusive camera(man) can DISAPPEAR when you have a certain person right by your side. Huahahahha....

To conclude I'd like to post one of the soundtracks in this video. I've gotta give it to you Mr. Producer -- it breaks my heart to watch the footages. If only...

Brighter Than Sunshine (Aqualung)

I never understood before
I never knew what love was for
My heart was broke, my head was sore
What a feeling

Tied up in ancient history
I didnt believe in destiny
I look up you're standing next to me
What a feeling

What a feeling in my soul
Love burns brighter than sunshine
Brighter than sunshine
Let the rain fall, i don't care
I'm yours and suddenly you're mine
Suddenly you're mine
and it's brighter than sunshine

I never saw it happening
I'd given up and given in
I just couldn't take the hurt again
What a feeling

I didn't have the strength to fight
suddenly you seemed so right
Me and you
What a feeling

What a feeling in my soul
Love burns brighter than sunshine
It's brighter than sunshine
Let the rain fall, I don't care
I'm yours and suddenly you're mine
Suddenly you're mine

It's brighter than the sun
It's brighter than the sun
It's brighter than the sun, sun, shine.

Love will remain a mystery
But give me your hand and you will see
Your heart is keeping time with me

What a feeling in my soul
Love burns brighter than sunshine
It's brighter than sunshine
Let the rain fall, I don't care
I'm yours and suddenly you're mine
Suddenly you're mine

I got a feeling in my soul ...(repeat chorus to end)
