Paalam sa munting kinang sa kanto ng iyong mga mata. Sa unang alab ng huling araw magpapaalam ang bihag ng tanikala. Walang humpay ang daluyong ng mga ala-ala.

Salamat sa unang halik at iyong natatanging labi. Mula sa una at sa huli. Ito na ang huling paalam. Papadayon din ang araw, bukas o sa makalawa, o hindi kahit kailan.

Walang luha o sugat na lalatay sa iyong balat. Hindi kailangang manatili sa ala-ala nating dalawa. Mula dito at sa mga susunod na araw, buwan, at taon.

Para sa ating dalawa ang paalam na ito. Hindi na kailangan magkubli sa anino ng masaya at masalimuot na nakaraan. Ito ang ating hudyat, ang ating kidlat mula kay bathala.

Para sa muling pagkinang ng iyong mga mata. Sa ala-ala ng buwan at ng mga bituin. Sia lahat ng bagay na nagpangiti sa iyong puso at labi. Paalam aking dagat, aking asul na langit.

Minamahal kita.

live a long life
cry a little, cry a lot
tears are like rain
they'll fall unnoticed
trees are like you
started from the bottom
ended up staring at the sky
wondering why
there's a limit to life
forever you'll grow
but one must go
and you'll be remembered
as the warrior of soul

me against
time patrol
guardian of
the future soul
teach me
how to control
the hands
that slipped
through time
go back and
leave a sign
that no matter
what happens
I will not back down
teach me how to fly
I'll learn not to die
teach me to forgive
and I will continue to live

tonight I saw
a falling star
It fell on Earth
the star lost
its shine
that's why It can
never go back
A girl pick it up
brought it home
hung it by the window
and everyday the girl
gives it a pat
cheering for its
glow to comeback
I only need your smile
for my glow to comeback

Goodnight my dear twilight
don't let any bad dreams
come to you tonight
you're the leaves
and I'll be the branches
let's make a world
full of trees and happy places
and put smile on everybody's faces
Goodnight my dear twilight
sweet kisses will travel
the world for you tonight

we always went the same route
six-thirty in the afternoon
we'll both be on our way home
riding orange-tainted jeepneys

and i never really paid attention
to the parked cars along our way
like how i never paid attention
to everything you say

i was on the same route
six-thirty in the afternoon
i was on my way home
this time, alone
