sing and i will hear you

i am back.
i wept in the plane today while watching the movie 'australia'. i was like weeping, trying to wipe my tears and going 'yes coffee, please.' to the stewardess. : P
i really love the song 'by the boab tree'. music does wonders. i duno why the movie resonates so powerfully with with me. well, actually i do know why. it has all the elements that i believe and want to believe in life. magic, power of our voice, of a song, oneness of human beings regardless of colour, race, language, unconditional love, nature, horses, waterlillies, the rain, passion, strong passion, freedom.
anyway. enjoy.



Sing and I will hear you
No matter where you are
A song to light the darkest night
And guide me from afar
And I will never be alone
Now I know you’re somewhere
You’re everywhere to me
You’re the colour in the sky
A reason to believe
And when the rain falls down
You tell a story
And I will hear you
Always near you
By the boab tree

Lay your arms around me
Like the falling rain
Let the feeling drown me
And life begins again

And I will never be afraid
Now I know you’re somewhere
YOU'RE EVERYWHERE TO ME
The warming of the sun upon
The earth beneath my feet
And when the rain falls down
You tell a story
And I will hear you
Always near you
By the boab tree

Oh you are somewhere
You’re everywhere to me
You’re the colour in the sky
And you’re the earth beneath my feet
And when the rain falls down
You tell a story
And I will hear you
Always near you
By the boab tree

p.s. one day i hope i can write a simple song.
