So Close - Jon McLaughlin

last week I watched 'Enchanted' movie again on Disney Channel..
when it came to dance-scene with this song, I almost burst into tears..
ahaha.. mungkin pas lagi sensi aja kali ya..
soalnya terakhir kali nonton film ini, ga ada adegan aku sampai terharu segala kok..

but this song is really sweet.. and the scene is really romantic..

                       you're in my arms
              and all the world is calm
        the music playing on, for only two
                   so close, together
                and when I'm with you

              so close, to feeling alive

                     as life goes by,
             romantic dreams must die
    so I bid my goodbye, and never knew
                 so close, was waiting
                waiting here with you
              and now, forever, I know

                   all that I wanted,
              was to hold you, so close
                 so close, to reaching
           that famous happy end, and
                  almost, believing,
           this one's not pretend, and
               now you're, beside me
          and look how far we've come

                     so far, we are
                          so close..

   oh how could I face, the faceless days?
             if I should lose you now
                           we're.. 
 so close, to reaching, that famous happy end
 and almost, believing, this one's not pretend
 and let's go on dreaming, for we know we are

                         so close..
                         so close..
                    and still so far..

remember the moment in the past when Friendster was a number one social network page, when most of you spent lots time made testimonial for your friends, created new friends, posted and posted many unimportant bulletin board.. random questions, random answers, random topics.. I loved posting it, btw..

when yesterday I checked my old documents, I found some of my saved documents about bulletin board.. I would share one of it here.. :) it subjected as 'use the band's song', created 20 December 2004.. *damn, can't believe how quickly time ran*

me, in black and white [again]

dancing in the field

dog inside sheep cage

family

searching my way home

say hello to the world outside

me, in sephia

reaching the sky

penuh & setengah penuh

me, in black and white

Idul Adha..
kurban kambing..

stuck up

since Westlife Farewell Concert last July, 

this part of song is always stuck in my mind..

looking through the window..

...watching birds from the window...

We Are the Heroes - LiteSound

When the night is falling from the sky
Just keep driving on a highway
When the world is deaf to all your cries
Just keep going, you’ll be there someday

You’re not alone, we’re against them all
Hold on to me, I’ll never let you fall
Even if someday all hope is gone
I will not give up

Whatever’s standing in my way we’ll make it through the day
‘Cause we are the winners, we are the heroes
We’re breaking down the walls, we’re gonna hit them all
‘Cause we are believers, we are the dreamers

No matter what they say, no matter what they do
I’ll make it alright, I’ll make it for you
We’re breaking down the walls
We are the heroes

As I stand beneath the starry sky
I just lose faith in gravity
And it feels like I can learn to fly
Bring to life all my fantasies

You’re not alone, we’re against them all
Hold on to me, I’ll never let you fall
Even if someday all hope is gone
I will not give up

Whatever’s standing in my way we’ll make it through the day
‘Cause we are the winners, we are the heroes
We’re breaking down the walls, we’re gonna hit them all
‘Cause we are believers, we are the dreamers

No matter what they say, no matter what they do
I’ll make it alright, I’ll make it for you
We’re breaking down the walls
We are the heroes, we are the heroes

Whatever’s standing in my way we’ll make it through the day
‘Cause we are the winners, we are the heroes
We’re breaking down the walls, we’re gonna hit them all
‘Cause we are believers, we are the dreamers

No matter what they say, no matter what they do
I’ll make it alright, I’ll make it for you
We’re breaking down the walls
We are the heroes

Aphrodisiac - Eleftheria Eleftheriou

I gotta to say what’s on my mind
When I’m with you I feel alright
You call me baby, we spend the night
I’m so addicted, I feel alive

Over and over I’m falling

Oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh
You make me dance, dance like a maniac
Oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh
 

You make me want your aphrodisiac

You make me want your aphrodisiac

I think about you all the time
I just can’t get you off my mind
You drive me crazy, you drive me wild
You’re so addictive, there’s no way out

Oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh
You make me dance, dance like a maniac
Oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh
You make me want your aphrodisiac

You make me want your aphrodisiac

I’m craving for your touch
I want it way too much
I’m craving for your touch
Too much, your touch, too much

Over and over I’m falling

Oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh
You make me dance, dance like a maniac
Oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh
You make me want your aphrodisiac

Oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh
You make me dance, dance like a maniac
Oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh 

You make me want your aphrodisiac

You make me want your aphrodisiac

Euphoria - Loreen

Why, why can’t this moment last forevermore?
Tonight, tonight eternity’s an open door…
No, don’t ever stop doing the things you do.
Don’t go, in every breath I take I’m breathing you…

Euphoria
Forever, ’till the end of time
From now on, only you and I
We’re going up-up-up-up-up-up-up
Euphoria
An everlasting piece of art
A beating love within my heart
We’re going up-up-up-up-up-up-up

We are here, we’re all alone in our own Universe,
We are free, where everything’s allowed and love comes first,
Forever and ever together, we sail into infinity,
We’re higher and higher and higher, we’re reaching for divinity.

Euphoria
Forever, ’till the end of time
From now on, only you and I
We’re going up-up-up-up-up-up-up
Euphoria
An everlasting piece of art
A beating love within my heart
We’re going up-up-up-up-up-up-up

Forever we sail into infinity,
We’re higher, we’re reaching for divinity…

Euphoria, euphoria
We’re going up-up-up-up-up-up-up
Euphoria...
An everlasting piece of art
A beating love within my heart
We’re going up-up-up-up-up-up-up
Euphoria, euphoria
We’re going up-up-up-up-up-up-up
