“There’s No Easy Way” Opm Lyrics
By Paolo Santos
I held her close to me
Coz i know she breaks so easily
And then i told her
Though i knew no matter how i tried to console her
Then she’d do the best she could
But there are times the best is no damn good
And no matter how you try to be kind
There’s always still a part of you you’ll leave behind
When they fall apart
There’s no easy way to break somebody’s heart.
I lied and told her she’ll be fine
Though we both knew it was just a lie
I had to do it
Coz i had said anything to help me get through it.
And she reached out for my hand
And her simple touch was more than i could stand
And i had to turn away coz i knew
All the hurt that she was feeling, i was feeling too
When they fall apart
There’s no easy way to break somebody’s heart.
She could’ve gotten angry
And made me feel like a guilty child
But i realized that never was her style
I wanted her to hurt me
And not treat me like a friend
I wanted her to say “there’d be someday
I’d come crawling on my knees to ask her back again”
But she acted like a lady till the end
Oh, what a lady!
I thought that she’d bring down
But she smiled at me and never made a sound
And i guess she understood in her way
Coz her silence told me everything she could not say
When they fall apart
There’s easy way to break
There’s just no easy way
There’s no easy way to break somebody’s heart…
“Photograph” Lyrics
By Paolo Santos
Verse I:
I still have a photograph of you
I’ve kept it all these years
Guess it would make you laugh to know
It still brings back the tears
From another place and time
When your love was mine
Verse II:
A picture of innocence, your eyes
They moved me even now
If I had the confidence, I’d try
To bring you back somehow
To another place and time
When your love was mine
Chorus:
Maybe I’m just a sentimental fool (…sentimental fool)
Bringing back memo–ries from a photograph of you
Adlib
Back to another place and time
When your love was mine
Repeat Chorus
I still have a photograph of you
I’ve kept it all this years
Coda:
La la la la, la la la la la la, la la la la la la la la la
La la la la, la la la la la
Seasons Of Love
Paolo Santos
Five hundred twenty-five thousand
six hundred minutes,
five hundred twenty-five thousand
moments so dear.
Five hundred twenty-five thousand
six hundred minutes,
how do you measure- measure a year?
In daylights, in sunsets,
in midnights, in cups of coffee,
in inches, in miles,
in laughter, in strife?
In five hundred twenty-five thousand
six hundred minutes
how do you measure
a year in the life?
How about love? (3X)
Measure in love.
Seasons of love (Seasons of love)
Five hundred twenty-five thousand
six hundred minutes,
five hundred twenty-five thousand
journeys to plan.
Five hundred twenty-five thousand
six hundred minutes,
how do you measure
the life of a woman or man?
In truths that she learned
or in times that he cried?
In bridges he burned
or the way that she died?
It’s time now, to sing out
though the story never ends.
Let’s celebrate,
remember a year
in the life of friends.
Remember the love (3X)
Measure in love.
Measure, measure your life in love.
Seasons of love…
Sonny Came Home by
Paolo Santos
Sonny came home to her favorite room
Sonny sat down in the kitchen
She opened a book and a box of tools
Sonny came home with a mission
She says days go by i am hypnotized
I’m walking on a wire
I close my eyes and fly out of my mind
Into the fire
Sonny came home with a list of names
She didn’t believe in transcendence
It’s time for a few small repairs she said
Sonny came home with a vengeance
She says days go by i don’t know why i am hypnotized
I’m walking on a wirei close my eyes and fly out of my mind
Into the fire
Get the kids and bring a sweater
Dry is good and wind is better
Count the years, you always knew it
Strike a match, go on and do it
Days go by i’m hypnotized
I’m walking on a wire
I close my eyes and fly out of my mind
Into the fire
Light the sky and hold on tight
The world is burning down
She’s out there on her own and she’s alright
Sonny came home
Sonny came home…
As We Dance by
Paolo Santos
I can remember the time
When you said that you were mine
You’ve made my life
Shine so bright
The feeling was oh, so right
And you put your arms around me
As we sway side to side
Bright stars up above me
Like flashing disco lights
As we dance
Somewhere in south of France
We will fly
Entangle up that bright lit sky
As we dance, as we dance
One night we were all alone
Somewhere far out on our own
Then you listen
While the music plays
Over and over since yesterday
And you wrap yourself around me
As we sway side to side
Bright stars up above me
Like flashing disco lights
As we dance
Somewhere in south of France
We will fly
Entangle up that bright lit sky
When we dance
In the streets of Paris, France
We will fly
Entangle up that bright lit sky
Like love birds flyin’
Side by side
As we dance, as we dance
Be My Number Two by
Paolo Santos
Won’t you be my Number Two
Me and Number One are through
There won’t be too much to do
Just smile when I feel blue
And there’s not much left of me
What you get is what you see
Is it worth the energy
I leave it up to you
CHORUS
And if you got somethin’ to say to me
Don’t try to lay off on your ways on me
I know that it’s really not fair of me
But my heart seen too much action
Every time I look at you
You’ll be who I want you to
And I’ll do what I can do
To make a dream or two come true
If you’d be my Number Two
AD LIB
[Repeat CHORUS]
[Repeat 3rd stanza]
CODA
Beloved by
Paolo Santos
I’m so tired of being here
Supressed by all my childish fears
And if you have to leave
I wish that you would just leave
Cause your presence still lingers here
And it won’t leave me alone
These wounds won’t seem to heal
This pain is just too real
There’s just too much that time can not erase
When you cried I’d wipe away all of your tears
When you’d scream I’d fight away all of your fears
And I held your hand through all of these years
But you still have all of me
You used to captivate me by your resonating light
Now I’m bound by the life you left behind
Your face it haunts my once pleasant dreams
Your voice it chased away all the sanity in me
These wounds won’t seem to heal
This pain is just too real
There’s just too much that time can not erase
When you cried I’d wipe away all of your tears
When you’d scream I’d fight away all of your fears
And I held your hand through all of these years
But you still have all of me
I’ve tried so hard to tell myself that you’re gone
But though you’re still with me
I’ve been alone all along
When you cried I’d wipe away all of your tears
When you’d scream I’d fight away all of your fears
I held your hand through all of these years
But you still have all of me
Close by
Paolo Santos
Nothing in life
Holds more power than your smile
I can’t describe it,
Even harder to define
Your breath, it soothes me
Your smile, it moves me
Gotta move in, closer to you now.
Nothing can come between us
Nothing can separate us
Nothing can ever break us apart
Well, it only shows
That nothing can keep us from getting close.
In a crowded room
Feels like being miles apart
My eyes on you
Reflects what’s deep inside my heart
Your breath, it soothes me
Your smile, it moves me
Gotta move in, closer to you now.
Nothing can come between us
Nothing can separate us
Nothing can ever break us apart
Well, it only shows
That nothing can keep us from getting close.
Your breath, it soothes me
Your smile, it moves me
Gotta move in, closer to you now…!
Nothing can come between us
Nothing can separate us
Nothing can ever break us apart
Nothing can come between us!
Nothing can separate us!
Nothing can ever break us apart!
Well, it goes to show
That nothing can keep us
From getting close
From getting close…
Coffee Cup by
Paolo Santos
Staring blankly as i pour my sugar in my coffee cup
Glancing slightly as the people would just patiently line line themselves up
Refrain 1:
Lookin’ at the distance my attention was disturbed
As this moonly silky presence gallantly approach the curve
Pretending that i know you i pervertedly just smile
Knowin’ i am invisible to your naked eye
Chorus:
Over a cup of coffee we will travel with our words
The espresso shoots me up the surrounding is a blur
Over a cup of coffee all drinking drop by drop
Thinkin’ lovely lady can you share with me just another cup
Moved my chair into a new position tryin’ to get a better view like a secret mission
Watchin’ every move you make don’t think it’s time for me to take a toilet brake
Refrain 2:
Gotta keep it together
Though i ain’t goin’ nowhere
Been here like forever
I just don’t really care
Chorus
I’m glad i chose
To start my day with a coffee toast
I did not sleep all day
Talk about how i spend my time away
Chorus
Eto Na by
Paolo Santos
Di ko akalaing ito’y magaganap
pag-ibig mo sa akin ang siyang hinahanap
sa gabi at umaga’y di mapakali
di ko rin naisip na magkakaganito
tuwing kasama ka para bang naglalaro sa langit
di ko rin mapigil ang aking ngiti
Chorus:
sa paglipas ng mga taon
pagbabago dala ng panahon ay nalaman
na tuwing kasama ka mundo’y sumasaya’t sumisigla
di mapaliwanag ang nararamdaman
di makakapayag na ako’y iyong iiwan
naniniwala na tayo ay iisa umaasa sanay eto na
pag namromroblema inisip ka lang
ating pinagsamahan na di matatabunan
kung sino mang iba tanda ng pagkikila ng isa’t isa
Repeat Chorus
Umaasa sana’y eto na
sana’y eto na ahhhh (3x)
Fool by
Paolo Santos
Making a fool of myself right here…
Been away, girl I took you for granted
Don’t know what to do or what to say
Feeling being stranded
I know that I don’t deserve you
I know that I did you wrong
But this is what it takes to mend this heart that aches
I am making a fool of myself right here
Just to let you know that I love you still
I am making a fool of myself right now
To convince you girl
That we can work this out somehow
Caught me by surprise
Everything just seem the same
Later on I’ve realized
That I’m the one to blame
For You by
Paolo Santos
For you i give a lifetime of stability
Anything you want of me
And nothin’ is impossible
For you there are no words or ways to show my love
Or all the thoughts i’m thinking of
’cause this life is no good alone
Since we’ve become one, i’ve made a change
Everything i do now makes sense
All roads end
All i do is for you
For you i share the cup of love that overflows
And anyone who knows us knows
That i would change all faults i have
For you there is no low or high or in between
Of my heart you haven’t seen
’cause i share all i have and am
Nothing i’ve said’s hard to understand
And all i feel, i feel deeper still
And always will
All this love is for you
Refrain
Every note that i play
Every word i might say
And every melody i feel
Are only for you and your appeal
Every page that i write
Everyday of my life
Would not be filled without the things
That my love for you now brings
For you i’d make a promise of fidelity
Now and for eternity
And no one could replace this vow
For you i’d take your hand and heart and everything
And add to them a wedding ring
’cause this life is no good alone
Since we’ve become one, you’re all i know
And if this feeling should leave, i’d die
And here’s why
All i am is for you
Coda
Everything i do now makes sense
All roads end
All i do is for you
In My Life by
Paolo Santos
There are places i remember
All my life, though some have changed
Some forever not for better
Some have gone and some remained
All these places have their moments
With lovers and friends
I still can recall
Some are dead and some are living
In my life, i’ve loved them all
But of all these friends and lovers
There is no one compares with you
And these memories lose their meaning
When i think of love as something new
Though i know i never lose affection
For people and things that went before
I know i often stop and think about them
In my life, i love you more
Though i know i never ever lose affection
For people and things that went before
I know i often stop and think about them
But in my life, i love you more
I love you more…i love you more

Overjoyed [acoustic] by
Paolo Santos
Over time
I’ve been building
My castle of love
Just for two
Though you never knew
You were my reason
I’ve gone much too far
For you now to say
That i’ve got to throw
My castle away
Over dreams
I have picked out
A perfect come true
Though you never knew
It was of you
I’ve been dreaming yeah
The sandman has come
From too far away
For you got to say
Come back some other day
And though you don’t believe that they do
They do come true
For did my dreams
Come true when i look at you
Can make it true if you would believe
You too might be overjoyed
Overloved over me
Over hearts
I have painfully turned every stone
Just to find
I have found
What i’ve searched to discover
I’ve come much too far
For me now to find
The love i have sought
Can never be mine
And though the odds say improbable
What do they know for in romance
All true love needs is a chance
And maybe with the chance you will find
You too like i
Overjoyed
Overloved
Over you
Princess by
Paolo Santos
The walls of my castle speak
they tell me that you’re not here
the heart of my kingdom weeps
knowing you’re nowhere near
give me one more chance
to prove my love is forever true
but you’re miles away, so far away
hoping that you would stay
my princess has left me
i am so empty, i’m all alone
my princess has left me
i have nobody to call my own
sitting in my own room
humming a lonely tune
staring up at the moon
wondering if you’d be home soon
have i done you wrong
that you went away
would do anything just to make you stay
thinking of you through day and night
wanting to make things right
