Heaven Knows

Does anyone remember this song back in the day?
I think I just started college...



Only Heaven Knows
(Sung by Rick Price)

She's always on my mind,
from the time I wake up
'till I close my eyes
she's everywhere I go
she's all I know

though she's so far away
it just keeps getting stronger
every day
and even now she's gone
I'm still holding on

so tell me where do I start
'cause it's breaking my heart
don't wanna let her go

chorus:
maybe my love will come back some day
only heaven knows
and maybe our hearts will find their way
only heaven knows
and all I can do is hope and pray
'cause heaven knows

my friends keep telling me
that if you really love her
you've gotta set her free
and if she returns in kind
I'll know she's mine

so tell me where do I start
'cause it's breaking my heart
don't wanna let her go

chorus

why I live in despair
'cause wide awake or dreaming
I know she's never there
and all this time I act so brave
I'm shaking inside
why does it hurt me so...

chorus

'cause heaven knows...

"Love hurts
Sometimes it's a good hurt
And it feels like I'm alive
Love sings
When it transcends to memories
I want to chime in
'Cause without love I won't survive"

Man... i love incubus!!

Love hurts:(

"that if you really love her
you've gotta set her free
and if she returns in kind
I'll know she's mine"

I think that's true. If she comes back to you, she's yours 4ever:)

love makes me sad, yes but love also makes me happy and i think happy moments are more important. =)

Princess,
Truer words yo cannot find...

Ijat,
If it weren't for the happy moments I think we'd all go insane... but then again... it's always these happy moments that hurt the most when you want to make a clean break, dont u think? They chain you to the other person... and if you're not strong enough, soon all the bad moments would be nothing but distant memories, and you only remember the good times... and sooner that u know know it, ur back with the person again... It's a vicious cycle, just waiting to be repeated...

Been there done that :)

Help is always far away

Help is never far away. That is the old adage that has been drummed into us ever since we were young. No matter where you are, and what difficulty you are going through, someone will be close at hand to help. Except they aren't. Many a time no one in your vicinity gives a rat's ass. Or could be in a mess of their own to even think that someone else may need the support. Just that little bit of assurance to show that they care. Sometimes it can be in the smallest things. A kind word. A check up of how one is doing. Yet help does come. Someone takes the time to respond, in short messages, all the way from across the Pacific Ocean. Someone does take the time to relate, and share their own experiences, and offers words of comfort from across the country. Yes, help is at hand, but it is always far away. *picture credit here

The Forbidden Kingdom No More

Yesterday is a day that would forever go down the sands of time as... "The Day I Fed Two Hundred Ravenous Mouths with Bottomless Pits" Oh the horror!... The Pain!... The Suffering!!! Like a swarm of locusts they came, wave upon wave upon wave... Like a farmer protecting his crop I could only look on and stare, as they darkened the sky, before zeroing in for the kill... Tears streamed down my eyes as I watched them strip every last grain of maize and corn that I had planted at the begininning of the year... My knees thudded to the ground, as I numbly watched the carnage around me, my tired brain barely registering what my eyes perceived. "So this is what it feels like"... I thought in my brain... "This thing called Open House" . .. ... Buuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuut I'm just being dramatic here ;) Yesterday was actually a day that I'm going to remember for a long time, simply because it was graced with the presence of those eager young minds I he...

Premature Mid-Life Crisis?

"Sejak bila lu jadi mat rempit beb?" (Translation: Since when did you become a street racer?) Were the first words that blazed onto the screen of my Dopod PDA Phone when I told my cousin that I had bought a bike. I mean...Is it that strange that I happened to work my butt off, save up, and buy one of the meanest most beautiful bikes I ever set my eyes on? I mean...just look at it... Shiny jet black finish, laced with highlights of blazing red, topped with rugged racing streaks...  I think I just wiped a tear off my face... No, no, don't get all worked up... I haven't gone off the wall. It's just that with the increase in fuel price, it seems silly to spend RM600 just going to and from work every day... Think about it, that's a month and a half's pay for my maid! Just to get to and from work!  So, I figured this would be a good compromise - maybe 2 or 3 days a week going to work by bike, and going to the local stores, local eateries, and even the local mosq...
