Take Good Care of Our Baby (To Gretchen)

Sitting at the chair, I’m so so lonely,
Thinking of my family…
Where are they? What are they doin’ now?
I wanna be with them.

When I look at my table, there’s a smile on my face,
‘cause there’s a picture of my baby…
With her is my wife, she’s really a perfect mother.
Oh how I love to be with them.

So please, Mama…
Take good care of our baby,
Be her mama and her papa.
While I’m away my thoughts will always be there
So take good care of our baby.

At the time when I’m home, I’m so so happy,
Together with my family…
With me is my wife, playing with our baby
Oh how I love to be with them.

So please, Mama…
We’ll take good care of our baby,
We’ll be her friends, her parents, anything.
As long as there’s you, as long as there is me
We’ll take good care of our baby.

We’ll take good care of our baby,
We’ll be her friends, her parents, anything.
As long as there’s you, as long as there is me
We’ll take good care of our baby.

As long as there’s you, as long as there is me
We’ll take good care of our baby.

My Dreams

I'm a new blogger...ah? well at least I'm trying. I still don't know what to post...I'm starting from a scratch...but maybe as time goes by I'll learn. well, where do I start? Maybe I can start when I was still young. My dreams then...
When I was a young boy I have so many dreams...We live in a compound where my neighbors at my age were all studying on a exclusive school. Me? I'm just studying on a public school. I thought that when I grow up I will send my kids also to private schools...then...then it came to reality...
I was fascinated to all the women who dressed in white...so the first girl I went dating is a nursing student. I married a Pharmacist...she died...and then I married again a Nurse. All connected to profession of medicine. But alas! I am a graduate of Business of Science in Commerce but my work place is connected to drugs and medicine.
My dream is to be somebody someday...now i think I achieved it partially...I am one of the people trusted by our company to run one of their branches here in the Philippines.
I am just waiting for my retirement to enjoy the fruits of my labor...I have a beautiful wife, a registered Pharmacist's daughter, an ECE graduate son, another son taking up Com-Sci, my Vetvet and Botbot. What else can I ask for?

A Special One (For You and Me)

I. This is the time to sing the song That makes you and me together. This is the moment to show them all Our love will be forever… Chorus: So move your body close to mine Kiss my lips, hold my hands, We will share this love ‘til the end of time… We’ll find a way to keep our love A special one for you and me, So gently let me say again… I love you…. I love you….. II. For all the times we’re tow of a kind That love will gonna last forever. Look at the stars and there we are Promisin’ we’ll always be together. (Repeat chorus) (Repeat II) By: Steve I. Cortez (1982)

To the Graduates!

Here, you are challenged as you tried new things
And when you stumble, you strike another luck
to taste and share another foul,
another luck, another day.

The doors are open wide for you
not to amuse nor to divert your once simple mind
but to build up eager and out going attitudes
towards the demanding and complicated business of living.

Yes, there is so much to learn
as you took a step away from home:
as you made a game of searching
you captured the grandeur of world
as the sun, takes time to rise
you simplify the confusion
and when a day is done
you cherish its triumphs and even the hurts
oh what a world you should not lose--- your school!!!

You Light My Life Again

Alone and feelin’ blue…that was me.
I kept on thinking her
And you came to me.
You thought my heart to love again
And now, now that you’re here
Then suddenly, you light my life again.

So let me explain my felling
I want you, I need you to be strong.
Now let my song tell you that I love you.
Believe me when I say "I love you".

Please don’t doubt my love I really care.
I know it’s hard for me
Someday you’ll be mine.
But what else can I do
My lovin’ heart wants you.
And you, you light my life again.

Believe me when I say "I love you".
