If every drop of water disappeared from the land And every drop of ocean suddenly turned to sand That would all be nothing Compared to what I'd feel If you didn't love me
What if I woke up and couldn't hear a sound And all that I could see was darkness all around That would all be nothing Compared to what I'd feel If you didn't love me
If I could have the world and all that money could buy And I could travel far beyond the moon and the day If they gave me golden wings, well I still couldn't fly without you, nothing would matter
You and I walk beside each other day after day But there's so much inside me, I never get to say My life would be so empty with nothing left to feel If you didn't love me
If you didn't love me If you didn't love me If you didn't love me
Bruce Lee was one of the most influential people in the world, and an idol to many youngsters and martial arts enthusiasts. Many people accredited his fame and the adoration of his fans to his charm and charisma.
I, on the other hand, believe it to be his positive outlook on life and his open-mindedness to the realms of different possibilities. He once repeated a famous Taoist saying, "You must empty the glass to fill it up once more."
People who believe that they know everything are naive. Instead, a person should be more open-minded and try to envision a world of possibilities that could not have existed yesterday. Once you begin to do so, a creative and positive flow of thoughts will stream out of you -- guaranteed.
Today is just another lazy Sunday morning. So much has changed in the past 2 years that I feel very tired. I woke up to download some music I had heard in clubs/lounges or just over the radio. I then chanced upon Nelly Furtado's latest single.
This is such a beautiful song. While her recent public persona has been more erotic than ethereal, this song is very sobering. It has been said she has a tendency towards the melancholy. It has a style like a breakup ballad with its sombre tone. I say listen as a pure, slightly pensive Nelly Furtado reveals yet another flawless facet of her femininity.
The arrangement just evokes such a strong feeling of regret. The lyrics accompanies the song well. Such a bittersweet aftertaste like when you are trying to forget about breaking up with her.
And, you just have to hear the version with Zero Assoluto.

LYRICS
Honestly what will become of me don't like reality It's way too clear to me But really life is daily We are what we don't see Missed everything daydreaming
[Chorus] Flames to dust Lovers to friends Why do all good things come to an end Flames to dust Lovers to friends Why do all good things come to an end come to an end come to an Why do all good things come to end? come to an end come to an Why do all good things come to an end?
Traveling I only stop at exits Wondering if I'll stay Young and restless Living this way I stress less I want to pull away when the dream dies The pain sets in and I don't cry I only feel gravity and I wonder why
[Chorus]
Well the dogs were whistling a new tune Barking at the new moon Hoping it would come soon so that they could Dogs were whistling a new tune Barking at the new moon Hoping it would come soon so that they could Die die die die die
[Chorus]
Well the dogs were barking at a new moon Whistling a new tune Hoping it would come soon And the sun was wondering if it should stay away for a day 'til the feeling went away And the sky was falling on the clouds were dropping and the rain forgot how to bring salvation the dogs were barking at the new moon Whistling a new tune Hoping it would come soon so that they could die.
I have learned that beauty will not carry through the ages. And, that grace and charm are just smoke and mirrors. There is worth in those who choose, those who strive and those who mature. The measure that I will go by is that of the personality.
... that certain je ne sais quoi
But, as man has ever been the slave to circumstance, I will move on... yet again.
It is almost never fate or destiny that dictates the rudder. The captain, with the hopes of safe passage, is he who steers the ships out to open water.
What is this rhythm of FATE? I sincerely do not know it myself. I have never heard the sound, let alone its rhythm. But I am happy to live my life, to feel and learn and breathe. Perhaps one day, I might listen to a hint of this beautiful sound.
