Senti Saturday: If You're Not Here


Haish.  Pardon the mushiness of this post, I officially blame it on this rainy weather.  But  I've said it again and again, I always love it when all of a sudden you hear a song that perfectly captures your exact emotions at that very moment.  Just like when I unearthed this "unnamed" file from my documents while doing files back-up.  I know it was one of those errr, recordings of mine which I can see from the Date Modified file that was saved two years ago but I wasn't sure of the title of the song.  Only to find out it was my take on Menudo's If You're Not Here.  And the lyrics says it all.  :(

Despite my failure on some most of the notes (haha!!), I can't stop list'nin to it.  Love your own diba?  Haha!!  If you're gonna listen (not really recommended, lol!), please use a headset as I might be discovered.  Nyahaha!!  But it's the thought that counts right so I have provided the lyrics below just for you to recall what is it about.  It's a famous song, of course it's from Menudo. ;-)


Gotta catch that plane at 7:30
Why haven't you come to say goodbye
Time is running out and I'm still waiting
I'm so lost without you, I could die
Yesterday you said you loved me
Everything seemed to be fine
Today you're not here, I'm so lonely
It's the waiting that's driving me out of my mind

Don't know how I'll sing in that big city
How can I perform if you're not there
This will be the worst of all my journeys
The image of your face will follow me everywhere

I need your tender kisses
The feel of your hands, your caress
Your perfume has me burning
My heart is yearning to touch you
I need you so much

If you're not here, by my side
Can't hold back the tears
I try to hide
Don't think I can take it
I know I won't make it
Make it without you

If you're not here, by my side
Only your love keeps me alive
No sense in dreaming
My life has no meaning
If you're not here

I need your tender kisses
The feel of your hands, your caress
Your perfume has me burning
My heart is yearning to touch you
I need you so much

If you're not here, by my side
Can't hold back the tears
I try to hide
Don't think I can take it
I know I won't make it
Make it withou you

If you're not here, by my side
Only your love keeps me alive
No sense in dreaming
My life has no meaning
If you're not here
