Just a friend by Jay Sean

Hmm another song that i am listening to it quite often.
the lyrics is so meaningful. dont ya think?
uploaded the song on my blog... can try listening...

LYRICS:
Hold me
Both our bodies close together
Teasin' me
Let me get to know you better
Pains me
This chemistry between us, can't u see
But I guess you're not there for me

I can't take this no more
Baby close the door
There's somethin' you should know
What's been goin' on
It's messin' with my heart
I can't even start
To describe what I've been holdin' inside

Chorus:
Cause she's just a friend
Yes, you'll never know
It's makin' it harder for me to let go
Cause she's just a friend
Yet, she'll never know
sometimes i wish i never met her at all
(really!)

Tell me
I gotta be tryna' make this thing alright
Can't be
if theyre makin' mistakes on all day, all night
Tellin' me
Cause I want you girl, hurts to know
That you're just too blind to see, Baby

I can't take this no more
Baby close the door
There's somethin' you should know
What's been goin' on
It's messin' with my heart
I can't even start
To describe what I've been holdin' inside

Chorus:
Cause she's just a friend
Yes, you'll never know
It's makin' it harder for me to let go
Cause she's just a friend
Yet, she'll never know
sometimes i wish i never met her at all
(really!)

still i havent found a way to show my feelings for you
There were so pretty times that I thought you knew
Like a fool I've waitin' every time you take me back
And I feel the same way too

Chorus:
Cause she's just a friend
You'll never know
It's makin' it harder for me to let go
Cause she's just a friend
Yet, she'll never know
Sometimes I wish I never matter at all
(really!)

Baby, don't you know
Don't you know what I've been tryin' to tell you

Chorus:
Cause she's just a friend
You'll never know
It's makin' it harder for me to let go
Cause she's just a friend
Yet, she'll never know
Sometimes I wish I never matter at all
(really!)

WAH HENG AH. think my wallet must hook to one chain loz, then confirm stick with me even if i drop it. anw gotta thank god and thank you. (",)

went for dinner after that, suppose to eat at food court de. but see the xin wang HK cafe loz. so went ahead with the cafe, order a fried rice with egg and mince meat plus a ice milk tea, and a --- "yang zhi gan lu" --- hime de. didnt really finish de fried rice loz, dunno leh maybe exam stress la. making me eat lesser nowaday. haiz. can someone cheer me up and bless me? although after our meal, we still sat in the cafe for some chatting, still try out ur DS pet it so funz la. (bathing, feeding and petting it) hmm left the cafe ard 8:00pm. walk to the mrt station and hime went back home loz, and i am heading toward clark quay to meet my buddies.

suppose was to drink beer at brewwerks de, but they end up at manhantten fish market loz. EAT AGAIN, wah bloated la. but i did snack a little. finish a bowl of clam chowder, mussels, fries, prawn, butter rice and fish. finally a killer glass of ice lemon tea, man u should have seen the glass loz. it BIG loz. but i manage to finish it, hee hee. result is a bloated stomach. then we walk from the central to city hall finally cab home loz. think tonight take a rest 1st. will start revision tomoro morning. if i con't this pace i will confirm fall sick de.

Nothin' Can Feel As Sweet & As Real
As Knowin' I Wasn't Waitin' In Vain

(Chorus)
And Maybe It's True, I'm caught Up On U
Maybe There's A Chance That U're Stuck On Me too
So Maybe I'm wrong, It's all In My Head

Hopin' U've Checked My Profile

Jonas Brothers: When You Look Me In The Eyes

If the heart is always searching,
Can you ever find a home?
I've been looking for that someone,
I'll never make it on my own.
Dreams can't take the place of loving you,
There's gotta be a million reasons why it's true.

When you look me in the eyes,
And tell me that you love me.
Everything's alright,
When you're right here by my side.
When you look me in the eyes,
I catch a glimpse of heaven.
I find my paradise,
When you look me in the eyes.

How long will I be waiting,
To be with you again
I'm gonna tell you that I love you,
In the best way that I can.
I can't take a day without you here,
You're the light that makes my darkness disappear.

When you look me in the eyes,
And tell me that you love me.
Everything's alright,
When you're right here by my side.
When you look me in the eyes,
I catch a glimpse of heaven.
I find my paradise,
When you look me in the eyes.

Movin' on, I start to realize,
I can reach my tomorrow,
I can hold my head up high,
And it's all because you're by my side.

When you look me in the eyes,
And tell me that you love me.
Everything's alright,
When you're right here by my side.
When I hold you in my arms,
I know that it's forever,
I just gotta let you know,
That I won't let you go.

Cause when you look me in the eyes.

And tell me that you love me.
Everything's alright, (it's alright)
When you're right here by my side (by my side)
When you look me in the eyes, (because)
I catch a glimpse of heaven. (oh)
I find my paradise,
When you look me in the eyes.

You are a true romantic. When you are in love, you will do anything and everything to keep your love true.

You are ready to commit as soon as you meet the right person. And you believe you will pretty much know as soon as you might that person.

The seriousness of your love:

You are very serious about relationships and aren't interested in wasting time with people you don't really like. If you meet the right person, you will fall deeply and beautifully in love.

The Script The Man Who Can't Be Moved

Going back to the corner where I first saw you,
Gonna camp in my sleeping bag. I'm not gonna move,
Got some words on cardboard got your picture in my hand,
Saying if you see this girl can you tell her where I am,
Some try to hand me money they don't understand,
I'm not... broke I'm just a broken hearted man,
I know it makes no sense, but what else can I do,
How can I move on when I've been in love with you...

Cos if one day you wake up and find that you're missing me,
And your heart starts to wonder where on this earth I can be,
Thinking maybe you'd come back here to the place that we'd meet,
And you'd see me waiting for you on the corner of the street.

So I'm not moving...
I'm not moving.

Policeman says son you can't stay here,
I said there's someone I'm waiting for if it's a day, a month, a year,
Gotta stand my ground even if it rains or snows,
If she changes her mind this is the first place she will go.

Cos if one day you wake up and find that you're missing me,
And your heart starts to wonder where on this earth I can be,
Thinking maybe you'd come back here to the place that we'd meet,
And you'd see me waiting for you on the corner of the street.

So I'm not moving...
I'm not moving.

I'm not moving...
I'm not moving.

People talk about the guy
Whos waiting on a girl...
Oohoohwoo
There are no holes in his shoes
But a big hole in his world...
Hmmmm

Maybe I'll get famous as man who can't be moved,
And maybe you won't mean to but you'll see me on the news,
And you'll come running to the corner...
Cos you'll know it's just for you

I'm the man who can't be moved
I'm the man who can't be moved...

Cos if one day you wake up and find that you're missing me,
And your heart starts to wonder where on this earth I can be,
Thinking maybe you'd come back here to the place that we'd meet,
And you'd see me waiting for you on the corner of the street.
[Repeat in background]

So I'm not moving...
I'm not moving.

I'm not moving...
I'm not moving.

Going back to the corner where I first saw you,
Gonna camp in my sleeping bag not I'm not gonna move.

WHY MEN ARE NEVER DEPRESSED

Men Are Just Happier People-- What do you expect from such simple creatures? Your last name stays put. The garage is
all yours. Wedding plans take care of themselves. Chocolate is just another snack. You can be President. You can
never be pregnant. You can wear a white T-shirt to a water park. You can wear NO shirt to a water park. Car mechanics
tell you the truth. The world is your urinal. You never have to drive to another gas station restroom because this
one is just too icky. You don't have to stop and think of which way to turn a nut on a bolt. Same work, more pay.
Wrinkles add character. Wedding dress $5000. Tux rental-$100. People never stare at your chest when you're talking to
them. New shoes don't cut, blister, or mangle your feet. One mood all the time.

Phone conversations are over in 30 seconds flat. You know stuff about tanks. A five-day vacation requires only one
suitcase.. You can open all your own jars. You get extra credit for the slightest act of thoughtfulness. If someone
forgets to invite you, he or she can still be your friend.

Your underwear is $8.95 for a three-pack. Three pairs of shoes are more than enough. You almost never have strap
problems in public You are unable to see wrinkles in your clothes. Everything on your face stays its original color.
The same hairstyle lasts for years, maybe decades. You only have to shave your face and neck.

You can play with toys all your life. One wallet and one pair of shoes -- one color for all seasons. You can wear
shorts no matter how your legs look. You can 'do' your nails with a pocket knife. You have freedom of choice
concerning growing a mustache.

You can do Christmas shopping for 25 relatives on December 24 in 25 minutes.

No wonder men are happier.

Israel Kamakawiwo'ole ~ Somewhere over the Rainbow

Israel "Iz" Kaʻanoʻi Kamakawiwoʻole (May 20, 1959 -- June 26, 1997) (pronounced [ka-maka-vi-vo-ole]) was an Hawaiian musician.

He became famous outside Hawaii when his album Facing Future was released in 1993 with his medley of "Over the Rainbow" and "What a Wonderful World", which was subsequently featured in several films, television programs, and commercials.

From childhood, his family called Israel by his Hawaiian middle name, Kaʻanoʻi, the "beloved one". His name would later become the title name of his first solo album, Kaʻanoʻi, and also foretells the greatness of this "cherished one". It is interesting to note here that part of his name, anoʻi, when simplified to noʻi may be a contraction of the Hawaiian word, nohi. Nohi means "bright-colored, vivid, as the rainbow" (see Hawaiian Dictionary, Pukui and Elbert). Nohi, rainbow, beloved one, and cherished one are powerful symbols in his life. Iz's recording of the song "Somewhere Over The Rainbow" would become renowned throughout the world and continues to garner high acclaim. The song has come to be known as Izʻs "signature song", the most renowned of all his songs.

Kamakawiwo`ole was nicknamed "The Gentle Giant" by his admirers. He was described as always cheerful and positive, and he was best known for his love of the land and of the people of Hawaiʻi. Through his consummate ukulele playing and incorporation of other idioms (such as jazz and reggae), Iz remains one of the major influences in Hawaiian music over the last 15 years.

Israel's recording of "Over the Rainbow/What a Wonderful World" reached #12 on Billboard's Hot Digital Tracks chart the week of 1/31/04 (for the survey week ending 1/18/04), possibly due to its use in the Adam Sandler film 50 First Dates, and the Brad Pitt film Meet Joe Black.

In 2006, a version of "Somewhere Over the Rainbow", in an arrangement based on Iz', was performed by The Worthless Peons in "My Way Home", the 100th episode of Scrubs, over the closing montage. A recording of the same song by Iz was used in the closing scenes of the final episode of Life on Mars (TV Series). It is also a featured song in the movie Finding Forrester. In 2002, the song was used to powerful effect in the closing scenes of Anthony Edwards' last appearance in ER as Dr. Mark Greene, in the episode "On the Beach". On week 8 of American Idol (season 7), Jason Castro performed his own version of this song except that he left out the "What a Wonderful World" line, but still gave credit to Israel for the song.

DEATH:
Throughout the later part of his life, Iz was obese and at one point carried 758 pounds (344 kg) on his 6 feet 2 inches (1.9 m) frame. He endured several hospitalizations and died of weight-related respiratory illness on June 26, 1997 at 12:18 am at the age of 38.

The Hawaiʻi State Flag flew at half-staff on July 10, 1997, the day of Iz's funeral. His koa wood coffin lay in state at the Capitol building in Honolulu. He was the third person in Hawaiian history to be accorded this honor (the other two were Governor John A. Burns and Senator Spark Matsunaga) and the only non-politician. Over 10,000 people attended his funeral. Thousands of fans gathered and cheered as his ashes were scattered into the Pacific Ocean at Mākua Beach on July 12, 1997.

On September 20, 2003, hundreds paid tribute to Iz as a 200-pound bronze bust of the revered singer was unveiled at the Waianae Neighborhood Community Center on O'ahu. The singer's widow, Marlene Kamakawiwo'ole, and sculptor Jan-Michelle Sawyer were present for the dedication ceremony.
