i, i feel the motion
every since i saw your eyes
i taste the potion
from your cherry-colored smile
and it makes me feel like i've been granted life
a second chance at life

here i thought that i was done
but you came through
counting all my blessings
now, i'm counting you

you, you are the most
beautiful one for me
look at me boast
a miracle in ecstasy
and i've waited all my life for one like you
you are the most
beautiful one

here i thought that i was done
but you came through
counting all my blessings
now, i'm counting you

and knowing you
you would say that you're the lucky one
and i'm inclined to tell you are right
except this once (2x)

you, you are the most
beautiful one for me
look at me boast
a miracle in ecstasy
and i've waited all my life for one like you
you are the most
beautiful - 

you, you are the most
beautiful one for me
look at me boast
a miracle in ecstasy
and i've waited all my life for one like you
you are the most
beautiful one

beautiful one

Sayo (Paru-paro)

I didn't think I needed anyone - anyone else
And I thought I could find the answers well on my own
I smiled at all the right moments, said the right words

But then I found myself cold
Wind seeping inside my bones
I felt my heart broken and afraid

Then you came -

Maybe this is the loneliness talking
But I've been waiting, I've been waiting for you to come
Silently on my own

Don't get me wrong, it's not like I need you
To be complete, 'cause I do, I can live without you
But I don't want to

'Cause I get myself cold
Wind seeping in inside my bones
I felt my heart broken and afraid

I was lost in the darkness
And you found me
You held my hands

I was lost in the darkness
And you found me
You held my hands
You held my hands

I was lost in the darkness
And you found me
You held my hands

I was lost in the darkness
And you found me
You held my hand

I was lost in the darkness
And you found me
You held my hands

I was lost in the darkness
And you found me
You held my hands
You held my hands
You held my hands

You held my hands

Hands (draft)

Kashimi and the Sea are slowly dancing
The light illuminating her hair that's as black as sand
Kashimi and the Sea are secretly hoping
That the wind takes her away to some distant island
Kashimi and the Sea are forcing smiles and
Distracting us and her from the pain underlying

Oh I wish I could've held your hand
Oh I wish I could've said something
Oh I wish I could've taken you away

*

Kashimi and the Sea are slowly dancing
Swaying back and forth in my head again and again
Kashimi and the Sea are moving closer
And the waves are taking her farther in to the horizon

Oh don't you dare fade away
I will come back someday
Oh please stay

Kashimi and the Sea are slowly dancing
Kashimi and the Sea are slowly dancing

kashimi and the sea (draft)

Thank you for today
I may have much more to say
But for now allow me to express
What's in my heart

Thank you for today
Cause now I can see the sun
For I have lived within the night
For far too long

Thank you for today
I have been born from love
But fear has taken love away
And you've brought it back

Thank you for today
My mother would always say
Be kind to everyone around you
I love her so

Thank you for today
The wind is singing your song
And I will never forget
This moment now

Thank you for today

The Quiet Rescue (studio draft)

(Zoom H1 Hand held recorder; unedited live recording)

I've been fiddling with my thumbs
Trying to find the answers there
And I have been wondering
How it'd be if you're still here

We could go and grab some coffee
I know that you'd like that
We could spend our Sundays bowling pins
I know that you'd like that too

Would you smile if you ever saw one of my shows
Would you hum the words to any of my songs

I can't explain how much I still miss you
It's been eight long years, but I still feel you here
Everything has changed, everything is different
Without you here

I've been looking at my mother's eyes
I can see the way she smiles
And I know you told us to be strong
But you're the only one who could ever make her laugh that way

I swear I've tried to find my own way

I can't explain how much I still miss you
It's been eight long years, but I still feel you here -
I can't explain how much I still miss you
It's been eight long years, but I still feel you here

Everything has changed, everything is different - 
Everything has changed, everything is different

'Till I'm with you

Of Cigarettes And Coffee Cups (acoustic draft)

(Zoom H1 Hand held recorder; unedited live recording)

Sa iyo sumisilong
Kapag ang puso ko'y pagod
Dampi ng hangin sa pisngi
Unti-unting pumipikit

Ang araw ay humihikab
Ang alon ay naglalaro
Salamat sa iyong ngiti
Ang takot ko'y pinapawi

At kahit sa dilim, at sa lamig
At sa lalim ng gabi

Huwag kang bibitaw

Lyrics:

Naririnig mo ba ang bulong ng aking puso?
Sana'y bukas dinggin din ang pintig nito.

Araw araw kang tumingin sa labas ng iyong bintana at magmasid
Di alintana ang puot na bumabalot sa alala ng kahapon

Harapin ang bukas at 
Ipikit ang iyong mga mata

Akin ka nalang
Akin ka nalang sana
Bukas makalawa
Bukas makalawa nakatadhana

Ang pagtagpo muli
Ng ating mundo
Bukas sa kahapon
Magpasundo

At di mo ba alam na nakaukit sa bato
Kwento nati'y tila di magkatotoo

Paulit ulit lang ang nangyayare sa iyo
Siya na naman ang may bihag ng puso mo

Siya na naman
Oh siya
Oh siya na naman ang
May hawak sa iyo

Bukas Makalawa Demo

(Zoom H1 Hand held recorder; unedited live recording)

I see all of your fears
Taking place of your dreams
I see all of your tears
Rise inside your heart
More than you know

I know when you lose sleep
The shapeless shadows you keep
I know that you long to be
Past the atmosphere
Flying free

So, come away with me
Come away with me
Come away with me
Anywhere
Away with me

We could live in the clouds
Build our own little house
Harvest light from the stars
And shine down
Some love, sweet love

So, come away with me
Come away with me
Come away with me
Anywhere
Away with me

So, come away with me
Come away with me
Come away with me
Anywhere
Away with me

Come away with me
Come away with me

come away with me (acoustic draft)

This composition of mine is the one that I'm most proud of. It accurately reflects what I went through during a tough episode in my life. It is a Filipino translation of a song called "Beach" that I wrote for The Cohens a few years back. 

Special thanks to Ian Invencion for adding his unique touch with the lead guitar, and Abby Austria for an awesome job at mixing and mastering.

Lyrics:

Hindi ko malimutan ang
Gabi na tayo’y nag-abang
Sa ‘pag dating ng araw na
Magbibigay-liwanag sa lahat
Ng ating pangangamba
Tumitibok din ba ang puso mo’ng ganito?

Nais ko’y iyong malamang ikaw lamang ang nasa isip ko
At ako’y nagtataka kung naiisip mo ako
O darating nga ba
Ang araw na
Mawawala ka?

Naririnig pa rin
Ang mga bagay na sinabi mo
Na balang araw tayo ay
Maglalakbay sa dulo ng mundo
Ngunit hindi ko alam
Tumitibok pa ba ang puso mo’ng ganito?

Nais ko’y iyong malamang ikaw lamang ang nasa isip ko
At ako’y nagtataka kung naiisip mo ako
O darating nga ba
Ang araw na
Mawawala ka?

Ang paghalik ng dagat
Sa buhangin ng dalampasigan
Ay maitatamo kaya sa aking pisngi
Mula sa iyong mga labi

Nais ko’y iyong malamang ikaw lamang ang nasa isip ko
At ako’y nagtataka kung naiisip mo ako
Tinatanong sa hanging umiihip sa dalampasigan
Kung darating nga ba
Ang araw na
Mawawala ka?

At nawala ka na...

Dalampasigan (ft. Ian Invencion)

LYRICS

I'm sorry darling
I'm falling hard for you
Don't catch me sweetheart
If you know what's good for you

But the wind is blowing
And our sun is almost set
My mind is racing
Is this the only chance I get?

I wasn't waiting darling
You've come to early
Why did you have to go
And get to know me

You've got the sweetest lips
I hope to one day taste
Tell me there's such a thing
As the right time and place

Good For You

bright eyes, warm smile
your laugh wakes me in the morning
small hands, soft lips
i trace your moles like constellations

and i'm never letting you go
and i'm dancing in the shower
and i'm eating all your vegetables
and i'll drive you for hours

i've waited so long for you to come around
i've held my breath, now i'm breathing in
i've waited so long, for you to come around
i've held my breath, now i'm breathing you in
ooh, now i'm breathing you in (2x)

breathingyouin(unfinished)draft

how do i walk away from you
when you're the best thing out of this year?
how do i walk away from you
when you're the only light i've ever seen, my evergreen?
oh

you don't know how broken i am
you don't know sleepless these nights
you don't know how much it has meant 
to hear you laugh and feel the ice melt

you don't know how good it has been
to see my eyes reflected in yours
to ask you how your day went and hear
that i was on your mind, your evergreen
oh

i do know i've been selfish oh
i've been stealing all your light, your light
i do know i've been searching for
just a place to rest my head but you want more
i do know i need to let you go
let you find a love that you deserve
but do know that i want you so
and it's taking everything to sing
oh

how do i walk away from you
when you're the best thing out of this year?
how do i walk away from you
when you're the only light i've ever seen, my evergreen?

finally september
i've been hiding here since june
running away 
from whom?

cataracts on both eyes
atrophying from the gloom
i'm missing whom?
i'm missing you

woah

who are we now
after all this running around and
where do we go
when it goes quiet?
i don't know
i don't know

woah (woah)

why hello, disappointment
i can see you standing there
you've found my lair
take my by the ear

'cause i'm tired of waiting
for people to find me out
love is my drought
i still don't know how

woah (woah)

who are we now
after all this running around and
where do we go
when it goes quiet?
i don't know
i don't know

(interlude)

who are we now
after all this running around and
where do we go
when it goes quiet?
i don't know
i don't know

find me someway, somehow (4x)
