by Indio I

di ako makatulog ng hindi ka pinapangarap
ikaw ang laging nasa isipan
at ang akala ko minsan ika’y aking niyayakap
sa pagmulat ko ay unan lang
paano ko sasabihin sa yo
ang tunay na layunin ng puso ko

di mo lang alam ikaw ang tanging buhay ko
kung alam mo lang ikaw lang ang iniibig ko
di mo lang alam ikaw ang tanging buhay ko
kung alam mo lang ikaw lang ang iniibig ko

tuwing ako’y napapalingon isa lang aking hangarin
ikaw ang laging nasa isipan
at ang akala ko minsan kaway mo’y para sa akin
yun pala sa iyong kaibigan lang
paano ko sasabihin sa yo
ang tunay na layunin ng puso ko

di mo lang alam ikaw ang tanging buhay ko
kung alam mo lang ikaw lang ang iniibig ko
di mo lang alam ikaw ang tanging buhay ko
kung alam mo lang ikaw lang ang iniibig ko

hanggang kailan ako maghihintay
o sana’y wag habangbuhay
wag ng magduda ikaw lang ang iniibig ko
at kung akala mo hindi kita mahal ikaw na ang nananaginip

di mo lang alam ikaw ang tanging buhay ko
kung alam mo lang ikaw lang ang iniibig ko
di mo lang alam ikaw ang tanging buhay ko
kung alam mo lang ikaw lang ang iniibig ko

This song brings back a lot of good memories to me. Back in 1999, a group of my friends and I always go to Anilao just to hang out. We go there almost every weekend after work. We leave Manila on Friday nights and go back home on Sunday nights. There was no Star Tollway in Batangas yet so we travel at night to avoid traffic. Our trip would usually take about 4 hours and we would play Indio I tape over and over again and so along with the songs.

I remember that I was one of those who didn’t like cellphones, but my parents were forced to buy me one just to keep track of my whereabouts. Most of my friends and I worked in Makati that time and I would usually go home late already because I hang out with my friends after work. Then on weekends I was off to Anilao so they didn’t see pretty much of me that time.

I really really really miss going to Anilao. I don’t go there anymore because most of my friends are already in the US. There are still a couple who are still here in the Philippines but I’m not in touch with them anymore because, well they are literally a couple and you know three’s a crowd and I guess they’re busy now with their lives.

Anyway, I really like this song by Indio I. I guess not too many are familiar with Indio I. I tried looking for their cd but it’s not for sale anymore. Good thing I was able to download three of their songs from the net, Di Mo Lang Alam, Diwata, S on my Chest. Enjoy listening and hope you’ll like it.
