The Wonder of You
« on: June 20, 2007, 06:13:17 PM »
Heavy with all the romanticism, the renaissance, the classical brouhahas in me, I can’t figure out why I love this very simple and literal lyrics of Elvis Presley’s “THE WONDER OF YOU”.   I’ve always asked my boyfriend (now husband) to sing this song for me back to back with the choir’s “How did you know” while I walk down the isle. Obviously, he never agreed to it because he could already surmise how he would wreck with nervousness on our wedding day. And so I begged him to sing for me instead at the reception. I got a big N-O once again. That no-singing stint of Prince Paul of course did not mar any bit of the marriage. With our 9 solid years together, he sings this song to me once in a while and that suffices what I missed for my wedding. I’d like to share to you all the very moving lyrics of the song.

When no one else can understand me

When everything I do is wrong

You give me hope and consolation

You give me strength to carry on



And you're always there to lend a hand

In everything I do

That's the wonder

The wonder of you



And when you smile the world is brighter

You touch my hand and I'm a king

Your kiss to me is worth a fortune

Your love for me is everything



I'll guess I'll never know the reason why

You love me like you do

That's the wonder

The wonder of you

Rose, English and Bisayan songs are welcome.

Please, ayaw lang nang mga Salbakuta, Parokya ni Edgar, etc., etc., mga walay pulos ilang mga kanta.

Or kadtong nagkanta sa "Hubagang Ate Oi." Non-sense. My blood shoots up.

dili man pud tingali tanan new songs pangit na..
Hubagang ate oi, is a bisrock song.. bisayan rock..would you believe nisikat sila...maybe because bisaya ang lyrics so bisan nonsense, daghan ghapon mo patronize specially mga bisdak..syempre atoa nga pinulungan..maayo nalang nisikat ug balik ang mga bisayan songs, even the manileños kusog mokanta ug hubagang ate oi...

I'm curious. I'll surely listen to this song the moment I come back home. I thought, 'Hubagang Ate' is an expression which at first, I couldn't even get.

I don't wonder when one of these days, there'd be songs titled like "Jerjer" or "Bahong Gas."

Hoi, Lumine, naa bitaw pero karaan na kaayo oi. It means, lami, gwapa. Basta positive na kung ingnon ka nga "bahong gas." Parehas ra na sa "hubagang ate oi" nga positive man daw na siya nga expression referring to women's curves and twin mountains. Na unsa na ni oi!!! ;D

Haha! I like the way she is glammed up but I don't necessarily like the way she acts. Sometimes, I just don't feel like to be in a serious mood, these times, I go Paris Hilton-ish.    ;D :P

I'm totally normal. I think it's obnoxious when people demand limos or bodyguards. I eat at McDonald's or Taco Bell. My parents always taught us to be humble. We're not spoiled.

at nasisintunado sa kaba...

Salbakuta can go to the seventh level of musical hell anonymity but let's not include Parokya ni Edgar in the condemnation.  Most of their songs may be nonsense but those that are are totally enjoyable and those that are not are quite lyrically beautiful.

Here's another Elvis song.  The lyrics are by a certain B.J. Thomas and I'd like to think that Elvis is singing it for (then) little Lisa Marie.

I Just Can't Help Believin'

I just can't help believin'
When she smiles up soft and gentle
With a trace of misty morning
And the promise of tomorrow in her eyes

I just can't help believin'
When she's lying close beside me
And my heart beats with the rhythm of her sighs
This time the girl is gonna stay
This time the girl is gonna stay
For more than just a day

Oh, I just can't help believin'
When she slips her hand in my hand
And it feels so small and helpless
As my fingers fold around it like a glove

I just can't help believin'
When she's whispering her magic
And her tears are shining honey sweet with love
This time the girl is gonna stay
This time the girl is gonna stay
For more than just a day
For more than just a day
