Song on Repeat 11242016 (Thursday) - Locked Away

I just love the beat and the lyrics itself. Brought me back while we were on the road going back to Manila from Bicol.


If I got locked away
And we lost it all today...
Tell me honestly...
Would you still love me the same?
If I showed you my flaws
If I couldn't be strong
Tell me honestly
Would you still love me the same?


Right about now...
If a judge for life me...
Would you stay by my side?
Or is ya gonna say good-bye?
Can you tell me right now?
If I couldn't buy you the fancy things in life
Shawty, would it be alright
Come and show me that you are down (ah-ha)

Now tell me would you really ride for me? (would you really ride for me?)
Baby, tell me would you die for me? (tell me would you die for me?)
Would you spend your whole life with me? (what's up?)
Would you be there to always hold me down?
Tell me would you really cry for me? (would you really cry for me?)
Baby, don't lie to me (baby, don't lie to me)
If I didn't have anything... (what's up?)
I wanna know would you stick around?


If I got locked away
And we lost it all today...
Tell me honestly...
Would you still love me the same?
If I showed you my flaws
If I couldn't be strong
Tell me honestly
Would you still love me the same?


Skiddly-dong-dong-dong dang
All I want is somebody real who don't need much
A gal I know that I can trust...
To be here when money low
If I did not have nothing else to give but love...
Would that even be enough?
Gal, meh need fi know (ah-ha)

Now tell me would you really ride for me? (would you really ride for me?)
Baby, tell me would you die for me? (tell me would you die for me?)
Would you spend your whole life with me? (what's up?)
Would you be there to always hold me down?
Tell me would you really cry for me? (would you really cry for me?)
Baby, don't lie to me (baby, don't lie to me)
If I didn't have anything... (what's up?)
I wanna know would you stick around?


If I got locked away
And we lost it all today...
Tell me honestly...
Would you still love me the same?
If I showed you my flaws
If I couldn't be strong
Tell me honestly
Would you still love me the same?

[R. City:]
Tell me, tell me, would you want me? (want me)
Tell me, tell me, would you call me? (call me)
If you knew I wasn't ballin'
'Cause I need a gal who's always by my side...
Tell me, tell me, do you need me? (need me)
Tell me, tell me, do you love me yea?
Or is ya just tryna play me?
'Cause I need a gal to hold me down for life...


If I got locked away
And we lost it all today...
Tell me honestly...
Would you still love me the same?
If I showed you my flaws
If I couldn't be strong
Tell me honestly
Would you still love me the same?

If I got locked away
And we lost it all today...
Tell me honestly...
Would you still love me the same?
If I showed you my flaws
If I couldn't be strong
Tell me honestly...
Would you still love me the same?

Would you still love me the same?

Song on Repeat 11172016 (Thursday) - When You Say Nothing at All

I logged in to my Spotify account and started playing the throwback Thursday playlist and then this song caught me. It got me reminiscing my college days when Ronan Keating's boy band Boyzone were on top of the chart for this song from the movie Notting Hill. Though, the irony is, I haven't watch Notting Hill in the big screen because I didn't have any extra money from my allowances back then.


It's amazing how you can speak right to my heart
Without saying a word, you can light up the dark
Try as I may I could never explain
What I hear when you don't say a thing
The smile on your face let's me know that you need me
There's a truth in your eyes saying you'll never leave me
The touch of your hand says you'll catch me if wherever I fall
You say it best when you say nothing at all
All day long I can hear people talking out loud
But when you hold me near, you drown out the crowd
Try as they may they can never define
What's being said between your heart and mine
The smile on your face let's me know that you need me
There's a truth in your eyes saying you'll never leave me
The touch of your hand says you'll catch me if wherever I fall
You say it best when you say nothing at all
The smile on your face let's me know that you need me
There's a truth in your eyes saying you'll never leave me
The touch of your hand says you'll catch me if wherever I fall
You say it best when you say nothing at all.
