by Louise Setara

Here is my hand for you to hold
Here’s the part of me they have not sold
I’ve wandered far, I’ve had my fill
I need you now, do you love me still

Only you have seen the hidden part of me
Call me foolhardy if you will
But I loved you when, do you love me still

So many smiles and lies surround me
Empty expectations, faceless fears
Sometimes this life is a bitter pill
I love you now, do you love me still

You have been mine since time untold
Our love is immortal, don’t you know
Others will come, and they will go
But I loved you young, I love you old

Only you have seen, the other side of me
Call me naive, I think you will
But I loved you then, do you love me still

Here are the eyes that only see you
Here is the mouth that only calls your name
Here is the soul that can not kill
I love you now, do you love me still

Two wonderful people are celebrating their birthdays today… Happy Birthday Kuya Edgar! Happy Birthday Armin! The song for this week is dedicated to one of the celebrants. The first time I saw him, I got attracted to him not knowing that he was one of my blockmates during college. I first saw him way back 1993 on enrollment day, I was with my mom and he was with his sister. We have a long story (maybe I’ll tell it here someday) and the lines on the song are true, but the “I love you” part is more on the friendship aspect now. Hope you’ll all like the song. Try listening also to the original version by Chaka Khan, sounds more romantic for me.
