IF WE EVER MEET AGAIN     
Timbaland ft. Katy Perry

What’s somebody like you, doing in a place like this?
Say did you come alone, or did you bring all your friends?
Say what’s your name, what you drinkin,
I think I know what you’re thinking.
Baby what’s your sign?
Tell me yours, I’ll tell you mine.
Say what’s somebody like you, doing in a place like this?
(1, 2, 3, come on!)

I’ll never be the same (if we ever meet again)
Won’t let you get away (say if we ever meet again)
This freefall (ahh), got me so (ohh), kiss me all night
Don’t ever let me go.
I’ll never be the same (if we ever meet again)

Oohh, oohh say if we ever meet again

Do you come here much? I swear I’ve seen your face before. (beforeee, yeah)
Hope you don’t see me blush, but I can’t help but want you more, more.
Baby tell me what’s your story, I ain’t shy and don’t you worry.
I’m flirting with my eyes, wanna leave with you tonight.
Do you come here much? I gotta see your face some more.
Some more cause baby I,

I’ll never be the same (if we ever meet again)
Won’t let you get away (say if we ever meet again)
This freefall (ahh), got me so (ohh), kiss me all night
Don’t ever let me go.
I’ll never be the same (if we ever meet again)

If we ever meet again, I’ll have so much more to say. (if we ever meet again)
If we ever meet again, I won’t let you go away. (if we ever meet again)
If we ever, ever meet again, I’ll have so much more to say. (if we ever meet again)
If we ever, ever meet again, I won’t let you go away.

I’ll never be the same (if we ever meet again)
Won’t let you get away (say if we ever meet again)
This freefall (ahh), got me so (ohh), kiss me all night
Don’t ever let me go.
I’ll never be the same (if we ever meet again)

I’ll never be the same (if we ever meet again)
Won’t let you get away (said if we ever meet again)
This freefall (ahh), got me so (ohh), kiss me all night
Don’t ever let me go.
I’ll never be the same (say if we ever meet again)

Well it’s cold
Cold
Under water
In the night time
But I dove
Dove to the bottom
To see what I’d find

That’s when I saw a light
A glowing paradise
Thought I’d stay a while
It’s been calling me
Underwater child
Everything that I ever dream

Taking my breath away
Currents got a hold on me
Sweeping me away
Wish I can stay
Takes me to the top
The cycle that never stops

(Chorus)
Love is like the sea
Leaves you on your knees
Feel it pull you in
Then it takes you,
Takes you over, over
Love is like the sea
Leaves you on your knees
First you’re floating high
Then it takes you
Takes you under, under

(Break)
Takes you takes you over
Takes you takes you under
Takes you takes you over (over)
Takes you takes you under

I been told, told
You only find it once in a lifetime
So you gotta hold
Hold on stronger then ever
Like it’s the last time

So when you see the light
Like a ship in the night
You have found the place
You been looking for
Like a distant shore
Don’t you ever look back again

Here’s something you should know
The sea is still in control
Cherish everyday
‘Cause you never know
It can take away
The very thing you love the most

(Chorus)
Love is like the sea
Leaves you on your knees
Feel it pull you in
Then it takes you,
Takes you over, over
Love is like the sea
Leaves you on your knees
First you’re floating high
Then it takes you
Takes you under, under

(Break)
Takes you takes you over (oh)
Takes you takes you under
Takes you takes you over (so far)
Takes you takes you under (this love like the sea)

Takes you takes you over
Takes you takes you under (can you feel the pull)
Takes you takes you over (its calling you)
Takes you takes you under

(Chorus Out)
Love is like the sea
Leaves you on your knees
Feel it pull you in
Then it takes you,
Takes you over, over
Love is like the sea
Leaves you on your knees
First you’re floating high
Then it takes you
Takes you under, under

She lives in a fairytale
Somewhere too far for us to find
Forgotten the taste and smell
Of a world that she’s left behind
It’s all about the exposure, the lens, I told her
The angles are all wrong now
She’s ripping wings off of butterflies

Keep your feet on the ground
When your head’s in the clouds

Well go get your shovel
And we’ll dig a deep hole
To bury the castle, bury the castle
Go get your shovel
And we’ll dig a deep hole
To bury the castle, bury the castle

Ba-da ba ba-da ba ba da
So one day, he found her crying
Coiled up on the dirty ground
Her prince finally came to save her
And the rest you can figure out
But it was a trick
And the clock struck twelve, well make sure
To build your house brick by boring brick
Or the wolf’s gonna blow it down
 
Keep your feet on the ground…
When your head’s in the clouds…

Well go get your shovel
And we’ll dig a deep hole
To bury the castle, bury the castle
Go get your shovel
And we’ll dig a deep hole
We’ll bury the castle, bury the castle

Well you built up a world of magic
Because your real life is tragic
Yeah you built up a world of magic…

If it’s not real
You can’t hold it in your hand
You can’t feel it with your heart
And I won’t believe it
But if it’s true
You can see it with your eyes
Oh, even in the dark
And that’s where I want to be, yeah!

Go get your shovel
And we’ll dig a deep hole
To bury the castle, bury the castle
Go get your shovel
And we’ll dig a deep hole
To bury the castle, bury the castle

Ba-da ba ba-da ba ba da
Ba-da ba ba ba-da ba ba

Ba-da ba ba-da ba ba da
Ba-da ba ba ba-da ba ba

Ba-da ba ba-da ba ba da
Ba-da ba ba ba-da ba ba

Ba-da ba ba-da ba ba da
Ba-da ba ba ba ba-ba ba ba

I’m here to fulfill my promise made a month ago. But before I begin rambling, I’d like to wish a Happy New Year and Happy New Decade to one and all!

Much has happened since I last blogged, most significantly JCPBF ’09. Also, I managed to catch Avatar, as well as Holmes. And I think I’ve really been  spending a lot lately, so much so that my bank account is almost as dry as the Sahara. Therefore……I need a job. Either that, or an internship to keep myself busy. So, if any of you reading this have any lobang…please please please let me know. Thanks!

On the other hand, life these few days have been really mundane, perhaps to juxtapose how happening the past few weeks have been for me. It’s pretty amazing how quickly time flies, and we’re on to a new decade already. I can still remember the hype over the new millennium…and that was actually a decade ago! WOW! I guess that totally refutes what Madonna said – “time goes by…so slowly”. The IB Examinations ended approximately one and a half months ago, but it definitely feels as if years went by. On the same note, results are 4 days away!! HORRORS!! And I guess I’m starting to feel the anxiety seeping in gradually, and as I would always say – “hope for the best and be prepared for the worst”. Then again, half of me can’t wait for 6th January to come, simply because I cannot look beyond that date. I really do not know what’s in store for me after that. It’s as if 6th January has blocked my line of vision, probably also because it’ll be the day that determines the road which I’ll tread on in the not-so-near future.

Nonetheless, let me give a brief update on what’s to come this year.

March 6                        Westwinds Concert (which I guess I’ll be performing…so please support!!)
March 11 – 26             Europe Trip (Italy, Switzerland, Germany, France, UK)
April 28                        NS

I’m actually planning to bookwhore in the months to come so that I can actually keep my brain occupied during this 2 years long hiatus from studying, lest my brain degenerates. Until next time!
