All Of Me

Jolina Magdangal - 04 - Ang Pagibig Ko Na Ayaw Mo

This song is for when you wonder - Am I living the right life? I hope it will inspire in times of doubt. Live your dreams today because tomorrow never comes. And because you can do it. We can do it 😊.

Midlife Musings is the lead single from my album I'm Too Old to Die Young, which you can get at www.nazneenrahman.com or any streaming service.

Lyrics: 
Caught me selling out the dreams
I told you long ago
I make my excuses
You don’t care

Caught you sliding round the principles
You used to own
You make your excuses
I don’t care

Look at all the pieces now
See the missing pieces now
Do you have a picture you love
Did you paint the picture you dreamed of

All of us are getting by
No time to be starry-eyed
Keeping up and buckling down
Dreams are for tomorrow
But tomorrow never comes
Drowning in our busy lives
Hiding in our empty highs
Wondering what we really need

Time slips through our fingers
Teasing us with promised lands
We’re out of excuses
No one cares

Look at all the reasons now
Do you know the reasons now
Do you have a picture you love
Did you paint a picture you’re proud of

Fools gold
Shiny but cold
Always out of reach
We don’t practice what we preach
Lives spent
Never content
Always in between
You know what I mean

Do you have a picture
Did you paint the picture
We must paint the pictures we love
Dream over, start over, paint over, 
Love

I'm Too Old to Die Young

Midlife Musings

Listen on Spotify

You know those nights when you can't sleep because your mind is working overtime.................

Did you sleep well last night?
Did your phone hold you night?
When the lights die, are you down, down?
Do the nights drive you round, round?

Did you mess up that call?
Is your back against the wall?
When the lights die, do you drown, drown?
Nights driving you round, round

Haunting you with everything
You didn’t do, wouldn’t do, couldn’t do
Everything you didn’t say, wouldn’t say, shouldn’t say

And it’s always,
One, said that stupid thing
Two, missed that key meeting
Three, sheep aren’t working
Four, behind on everything
Five, said that stupid thing
Six, damn sheep aren’t working

Did you sleep well last night?
Did your phone hold you night?
When the lights die, your mind’s loud, loud
Nights going round, round?

Taunting you with everything
You didn’t know, couldn’t do, shouldn’t do
Everything you didn’t fight, wouldn’t fight, shouldn’t fight

And it’s always,
One, said that stupid thing
Two, missed that key meeting
Three, sheep aren’t working
Nine, behind on everything
Twelve, said that stupid thing
Fifty-five, damn sheep aren’t working

Did you sleep well last night?
Did you phone hug you tight?

And it’s always round and round and round……

Did You Sleep Well

For people with mental health struggles and for the people supporting them

Lyrics
I’m trapped in a room locked from the inside
The window’s open but I can’t call your name
I plan escapes desperate and frightened
The years go by, I’m just the same

I am someone, hiding to be no one
I am no one, hoping to be anyone
But me
And you you, lovely you wanna save me

You see my flaws in the rear view mirror
My strengths with a rosy shimmer
You don’t need anyone but me
You meet life with a fearless hunger
Fate with a supple wonder
But I can’t find the beauty you see

You, you, you gorgeous you wanna save me
You, you, you wondrous you
Can I be saved?

The sun comes out I step out so brightly
The rains come I get washed away
You curl your fingers over mine so tightly
The darkness comes I lose my way.

I am still someone, hiding to be no one
I’m always no one, hoping to be anyone
But me
And you, you, lovely you wanna save me.

You see my flaws in the rear view mirror
My strengths with a rosy shimmer
You don’t need anyone but me
You meet life with a fearless hunger
Fate with a supple wonder
But I can’t find the beauty you see

You, you, you gorgeous you wanna save me
You, you, you wondrous you
Can I be saved?
Can I be safe?
Can I feel safe?
Safe

Can I Be Saved

I was in Westminster on the day of the terror attack. Such events remind us how fragile life is. Things can change in a split second. We all have millions of alternate what-might-have-been lives......

Lyrics
I felt the sound
I saw the world turn to dust
Fell to the ground
Scrambling for something to trust

Every moment is a risk
Every moment is a million to one
Every second is a sign
Every second is the start of a new day breathing

Split second sooner everything’s lost
Split second later destiny’s crossed

I saw your smile
Calling to me through the crowd
You caught my eye
Wondered, then turned around

Every moment is a chance
Every moment is a million to one
Every second is a sign
Every second is the start of a new dawn gleaming

Split second sooner you might be mine
Split second later love’s out of time

Every moment is a choice
Every moment is a million to one
Every second is a change
Every second is the start of a new world turning

I take my time
Can’t sell my attention too cheap
Waiting in line
Can’t find the conviction to leap

Every moment is a start
Every moment is a million to one
Every second leaves a mark
Every second is the gasp of a flipside fading

Split second sooner everything’s won
Split second later everything’s gone
Split second bright
Split second black
Split second over
No turning back

Split Second

A song about the pleasures and pains of parenthood. It made the FINALs of the UK Songwriting Competition

Lyrics
So small, so vast
I held you in the palm of my hand
My life was ending
My life was beginning
I was swimming through quicksand

You made me tired, you made me tireless
You made me scared, you made me fearless
There ain’t no love like this
You gave me joy, you gave me wonder
You made me know what life was made for
There ain’t no love like this

I still feel your tiny hand in mine
Your arms wrapped tight around my neck
I glanced away for just a moment
Turned back to hear your voice break
The days were long
The years have gone

You made me careful, you made me care less
You made me hopeful, you made me anxious
There ain’t no love like this
You gave me joy, you gave me wonder
You made me know what life was made for
There ain’t no love like this

I don’t want you to go
But I sure don’t want you to stay
I want for you all that life can give
But I still need to keep you safe

You give me strength, you teach me patience
You pull me up, you give me licence
There ain’t no love like this
You give me joy, you give me wonder
Make me know what life was made for
There ain’t no love like this

Every time your smile greets me at the door
Every time I pick your socks up off the floor
Every moment rough and calm we share
There ain’t no love like this

Ain't No Love Like This

I'll never understand the way it's done.
My cam ran out battery while recording this, hence the ending. HAHAHA
