Only Reminds Me of You

Written By Rocky Batara on Sunday, April 18, 2010 | 2:45 PM

As part of my one year celebration of the rebirth of my blogs, I will share with you again the post from my first blog site Bits of Rocks in Friendster.

This is under my segment there called "Rhythm of my Heart"

This song "Only Reminds Me of You" was my theme song to my former officemate in my previous company.

In "Bits of Rocks", this post was titled "5 Years Later".

Now let us revisit back this famous post. It reads:



"Natutuwa ang puso ko, unang araw ko pa lang sya noon makita…she reminds me of someone…someone I loved before…"

Sabi nila kapag nagmahal ka raw, mahirap nang maalis sa puso mo ang mukha ng taong dating minahal mo. Lalo na kapag may kamukha ito… For this time, right now I already Moved On with the greatest love story I ever produced! Tinatawanan ko nalang ngayon at masayang binabalikan ang nakalipas na pag-ibig.

June 2002, Second Year College pa lang ako noon when I fall to someone, eventually naging close friend ko sya sa maikling panahon dahil nag-dropped ito turning our love story to eventually end!



Masyado akong nasaktan nang mga panahong ‘yon, at tanging hiling na makita at muling makasama ang taong nilalaman ng puso. But as they only says, ‘time will heal…time will make you forget…‘ But it takes time bago sya mapalitan ng isang taong may brace sa ngipin (^_^)!

Right now, i’m already a Software Engineer here in Makati, limang taon na ang nakalipas mula noong 2002. I didn’t expect, may isang tao pala na magpapasaya muli (after Mulawin and Love At First… teleserye ko for this year) sa puso ko ngayon. Unang araw ko pa lang sya makita, tumalon na ang puso ko sa tuwa…until I realized…day after day…kamukha or sabihin na nating ipinaaalala ka niya sa’kin…ang dati kong minahal!!

Magkaroon rin kaya kami ng love story? Maging close friend or barkada ko rin kaya sya tulad ng dati ko noon? Anu naman kaya ang magiging title ng bagong telenovela ko kung sya na kaYa ang hinihintay kong makatambal? Pero, isang awit lang ang maiaalay ko sa kanya pagnangyari na ‘yun…"Only reminds me of you" …dahil ipinaaalala nya ang dating inibig ko! Para sa’yo kaya ang awit na ito…?



Only Reminds Me Of You
(Richard Marx / MYMP)

I see you, beside me
It’s only a dream
A vision of what used to be
The laughter, the sorrow
Pictures in time
Fading to memories

How could I ever let you go
Is it too late to let you know

Chorus:
I tried to run from your side
But each place I hide
It only reminds me of you
When i turn out all the lights
Even the night
It only reminds me of you

I needed my freedom
That’s what I’ve thought
But I was a fool to believe
My heart lied while you cried
Rivers of tears
But I was too blind to see

Everything we’ve been through before
Now it means so much more

I tried to run from your side
But each place I hide
It only reminds me of you
When I turn out all the light
Even the night
It only reminds me of you

Only you…

So come back to me
I’m down on my knees
Girl can’t you see…

How could I ever let you go
Is it too late to let you know

I tried to run from your side
But each place I hide
It only reminds me of you
When I turn out all the lights
Even the night
It only reminds me of you

I tried to run from your side
But each place I hide
It only reminds me of you
When I turn out all the lights
Even the night
It only reminds me of you

You, You,
It only reminds me of you


Masaya ako ngayon…masayang magagawa ang responsibilidad dahil s’yo na araw-araw na magpapasaya ngayon sa araw ko!!

People always see the face of their love one in the face or personality of a different person…marami pa ring taong magpapaalala sa’yo ng taong dating minahal mo… sa mukha ng ibang tao...!

Right Here Waiting

Written By Rocky Batara on Tuesday, February 16, 2010 | 2:28 AM

How long do we need to wait? Are we waiting for the right one to come or just we were only waiting for nothing?

Can love wait...? Or we are the one that needs to wait for love?!

Just recently, this song was heard all over the radio! And take note, the latest version of it was sung by a female singer.

Yup, I know, we were all familiar with the original version of this song by Richard Marx! This was the 80's hit love song that is still played on the different radio stations! It's such as timeless classic love song!

But this year, another new version of it was heard! And it was the version of the pop star princess Ms. Sarah Geronimo!

This is part of her current album which is Music and Me! Her new album is a collection of her hit songs, movie themes, and revival classic just like this!

In her version of this song, Sarah put all her emotions (like she always does) singing the song that makes you feel it! Hearing this, you will really feel the love you're waiting for the rest of your life! The love that you wait and the love that you think will wait for you!

This song is very much applicable to all the single individuals that until now waiting for their love to come! Of course, this is also applicable to the love affairs separated by distance or ambitions! Just like in my case, I was separated to my loves because of different reasons! Some needs to go abroad for work, some needs to pursue their career alone, some just didn't worked! But whatever reason, the point goes...all of us were waiting for the so-called right kind of love!

So while waiting for the meantime, I have here for you the lyrics of the song "Right Here Waiting" as popularized originally by Richard Marx and now by Sarah Geronimo! C",)




Right Here Waiting
(Richard Marx / Sarah Geronimo)


Oceans apart, day after day
And I slowly go insane
I hear your voice on the line
But it doesn't stop the pain

If I see you next to never
But how can we say forever

Wherever you go, whatever you do
I will be right here waiting for you
Whatever it takes or how my heart breaks
I will be right here waiting for you

I took for granted, all the times
That I thought would last somehow
I hear the laughter, I taste the tears
But I can't get near you now

Oh, can't you see it, baby
You've got me goin' crazy

Wherever you go, whatever you do
I will be right here waiting for you
Whatever it takes or how my heart breaks
I will be right here waiting for you

I wonder how we can survive
This romance
But in the end if I'm with you
I'll take the chance

Oh, can't you see it, baby
You've got me goin' crazy

Wherever you go, whatever you do
I will be right here waiting for you
Whatever it takes or how my heart breaks
I will be right here waiting for you
