I'm obsessed with this song. It's by a local band called Stonefree. This song was playing on the radio this morning and it never left my head. I scoured the internet for the lyrics but couldn't find it, being that it was a Tagalog song. I ranted to my officemate how frustrated I felt that I couldn't find the lyrics to this beautifully sad song I soooo wanted to post on my blog. She asked what it was. Lo and behold. She knew the lead singer of the band. They were friendsters. I got the freakin' lyrics! So as gravely intended, I'm now posting it, with the hope that the song moves (those who can understand it), as it did move me:

Kapag Nawala Ka
kapag nawala ka , giliw mundo'y walang kulay.
'di ko na muling mararanasan dulot mo sa 'king sigla.
kapag nawala ka, giliw labis na mululumbay.
'di ko na nanaisin pa na ako ay mabuhay.

paano ang yakap
paano ang halik?
kapag nawala ka

kapag nawala ka, giliw araw ay 'di na sisikat.
'di ko na muling masisilayan ang taglay mong ganda

paano ang yakap
paano ang halik?
kapag nawala ka

walang saysay ang buhay kung sa 'kin ay mawalay!

kapag nawala ka, giliw labis na malulumbay.
'di ko na nanaisin pa na ako ay mabuhay.

paano ang yakap
paano ang halik?
kapag nawala ka
