He deals the cards as a meditation
And those he plays never suspect
He doesn't play for the money he wins
He don't play for respect
He deals the cards to find the answer
The sacred geometry of chance
The hidden law of a probable outcome
The numbers lead a dance
I know that the spades are the swords of a soldier
I know that the clubs are weapons of war
I know that diamonds mean money for this art
But that's not the shape of my heart
He may play the jack of diamonds
He may lay the queen of spades
He may conceal a king in his hand
While the memory of it fades
I know that the spades are the swords of a soldier
I know that the clubs are weapons of war
I know that diamonds mean money for this art
But that's not the shape of my heart
That's not the shape
The shape of my heart
If I told her that I loved you
You'd maybe think there's something wrong
I'm not a man of too many faces
The mask I wear is one
But those who speak know nothing
And find out to their cost
Like those who curse their luck in too many places
And those who fear are lost
I know that the spades are the swords of a soldier
I know that the clubs are weapons of war
I know that diamonds mean money for this art
But that's not the shape of my heart
That's not the shape of my heart
That's not the shape
The shape of my heart
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Jungle life
I'm far away from nowhere
On my own like Tarzan boy
Hide and seek
I play alone while rushing 'cross the forest
Monkey business on a sunny afternoon
Jungle life
I'm living in the open
Native beat that carries on
Burning bright
A fire blows the signal to the sky
I sit and wonder, does the message get to you?
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Night to night
Gimme the other, gimme the other
Chance tonight
Gimme the other, gimme the other
Night to night
Gimme the other, gimme the other world
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Jungle life
You're far away from nothing
It's all right
You won't miss home
Take a chance
Leave everything behind you
Come and join me, won't be sorry
It's easy to survive
Jungle life
We're living in the open
All alone like Tarzan's boy
Hide and seek
We play alone while rushing 'cross the forest
Monkey business on a sunny afternoon
Night to night
Gimme the other, gimme the other
Chance tonight, oh yeah
Night to night
Gimme the other, gimme the other
Night to night
You won't play
Night to night
Gimme the other, gimme the other
Chance tonight, oh yeah
Night to night, night to night
Gimme the other, gimme the other world
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

Janet Jackson - Again (1993)
I heard from a friend today
And she said you were in town
Suddenly the memories came back to me in my mind
"How can I be strong?" I've asked myself
Time and time I've said
That I'll never fall in love with you again
A wounded heart you gave
My soul you took away
Good intentions you had many
I know you did
I've come from a place that hurts
And God knows how I've cried
And I never want to return
Never fall again
Making love to you
Oh, it felt so good and
Ooh, so right
"How can I be strong?" I've asked myself
Time and time I've said
That I'll never fall in love with you again
So here we are alone again
Didn't think it'd come to this
And to know it all began
With just a little kiss
I've come too close to happiness
To have it swept away
Don't think I can take the pain
Never fall again
Kinda late in the game but my heart is in
Your hands
Don't you stand there and then
Tell me you love me then leave again
'Cause I'm falling in love with
You again
Hold me
Hold me
Don't ever let me go
Say it just one time
Say you love me
God knows I do love you
Again

Jacky Cheung & Regine Velasquez - In Love With You (1994)
(Jacky)
Just a gentle whisper, tell
me that you'd gone
Leaving only memories,
where did we go wrong?
I couldn't find the words then,
so let me say them now
I'm still in love with you
(Regine)
Tell me that you love me,
tell me that you care
Tell me that you need me,
and I'll be there
I'll be there waiting...
(Regine/Jacky)
I will always love you, I
will always stay true
There's no one who loves you like I do
Come to me now
I will never leave you, I will
stay here with you
Through the good and bad I will stand true
I'm in love with you
(Jacky)
Now we're here together,
yesterday has past
Life is just beginning,
close to you at last
And I promise to you, I
will always be there
I give my all to you
(Regine)
Living life without you is
more that I can bear
Hold me close forever,
I'll be there...
(Jacky)
I'll be there for you
(Regine/Jacky)
I will always love you, I
will always stay true
There's no one who loves you like I do
This I promise...
I will never leave you, I will
stand here with you
Though the good and bad I will stand true
Hold me closer...
Our love is forever, holding us together
Nothing in this world can stop us now
(Jacky)
Love has found
(Regine)
Love has found a way ...
(Regine/Jacky)
I'm in love, I'm in love
Yes I'm in love, so in love
I'm so in love with you....
I Hate Myself for Loving You- Joan Jett & the Blackhearts
Midnight, gettin' uptight, where are you?
You said you'd meet me, now it's quarter to two
I know I'm hangin' but I'm still wantin' you
Hey Jack, it's a fact they're talkin' in town
I turn my back and you're messin' around
I'm not getting jealous, don't like lookin' like a clown
I think of you every night and day
You took my heart, and you took my pride away
I hate myself for loving you
Can't break free from the the things that you do
I wanna walk but I run back to you
That's why I hate myself for loving you
Daylight, spent the night without you
But I've been dreamin' 'bout the lovin' you do
I'm over being angry 'bout the hell you put me through
Hey man, bet you can't treat me right
You just don't know what you was missin' last night
I wanna see you beggin', say, "Forget it" just for spite
I think of you every night and day
You took my heart, and you took my pride away
I hate myself for loving you
Can't break free from the the things that you do
I wanna walk but I run back to you
That's why I hate myself for loving you
I think of you every night and day
You took my heart, and you took my pride away
I hate myself for loving you
Can't break free from the things that you do
I wanna walk but I run back to you
That's why I hate myself for loving you
I hate myself for loving you
Can't break free from the the things that you do
I wanna walk but I run back to you
That's why I hate myself for loving you
I hate myself (ow, uh)
For loving you
I hate myself (ow, uh)
For loving you
I hate myself (ow, ow, ow)
For loving you
I hate myself (ow)
I hate myself
For loving you

Juliana Banos & Indigo - Sehidup Semati (1999)
Berkat kesabaran kita
Menempuhi segala
Ku bersyukur kau masih setia
Kau insan teramat ku cinta
Namamu terpahat di dada
Untuk selamanya menyayangimu
Kerana ku milikmu
Moga yang Esa
Tunaikan ikrar kita
Untuk sehidup semati
Kerna tak terdaya
Hidup tanpamu
Bak pungguk rindukan bulan
Diriku kan kehilangan kesepian
Bintang menjadi saksi janji
Sehidup semati
Ku dedikasikan padamu
Seluruh kehidupanku
Kerna itu saja buatku bahagia
Ku rela korbankan segala
Yang ku ada di dunia
Moga kau gembira selamanya
Kerana ku milikmu
Moga yang Esa
Tunaikan ikrar kita
Untuk sehidup semati
Kerna tak terdaya
Hidup tanpamu
Bak pungguk rindukan bulan
Diriku kan kehilangan kesepian
Bintang menjadi saksi janji
Sehidup semati
Moga kita berpanjangan
(Moga kita berpanjangan)
Menikmati rasa cinta
Di antara dua insan
(Di antara dua insan)
Ku berdoa setiap masa
Agar kita lebih lama di sini
Bersama kau di sisi
Kasih ku percaya
Kita berdua
Sehidup semati
Kini dan selama-lamanya
Sehidup semat
Selebat hujan yang turun
Mencurah membasahi bumi
Tidak selebat hujan
Di dalam jiwaku
Sehebat halilintar
Membelah langit yang kelabu
Tidak sepanas petir
Yang membakar hidupku
Oh, hujan
Di antara air mataku
Menitis laju
Bersama pilu-pilu
Kucuba menghapuskan
Kenangan waktu silam
Namun bertambah membara
Rindu yang kusekamkan
Semakin aku mencuba
Semakin terasa siksa
Inikah yang kau tinggalkan
Untuk diriku, oh kasih?
Semakin aku mencuba
Semakin terasa siksa
Inikah yang kau tinggalkan
Untuk diriku, oh kasih?
Selebat hujan yang turun
Mencurah membasahi bumi
Tidak selebat hujan
Di dalam jiwaku
Oh, hujan
Di antara air mataku
Menitis laju
Bersama pilu-pilu
Kucuba menghapuskan
Kenangan waktu silam
Namun bertambah membara
Rindu yang kusekamkan
Oh, hujan
Di antara air mataku
Menitis laju
Bersama pilu-pilu
Semakin kucuba
Semakin terasa siksa
Inikah yang kau tinggalkan
Untuk diriku, oh kasih?

Barry Manilow - Somewhere Down The Road
We had the right love at the wrong time
Guess I always knew inside
I wouldn't have you for a long time
Those dreams of yours are shining on distant shores
And if they're calling you away
I have no right to make you stay
But somewhere down the road
Our roads are gonna cross again
It doesn't really matter when
But somewhere down the road
I know that heart of yours will come to see
That you belong with me
Sometimes goodbyes are not forever
It doesn't matter if you're gone
I still believe in us together
I understand more than you think I can
You have to go out on your own
So you can find your way back home
But somewhere down the road
Our roads are gonna cross again
It doesn't really matter when
But somewhere down the road
I know that heart of yours will come to see
That you belong with me
Letting go is just another way to say
I'll always love you so
We had the right love at the wrong time
Maybe we've only just begun
Maybe the best is yet to come
'Cause somewhere down the road
Our roads are gonna cross again
It doesn't really matter when
But somewhere down the road
I know that heart of yours will come to see
That you belong with me

Basil Valdez - You
[Verse 1]
You give me hope
For strength, the will to keep on
No one else can make me feel this way
And only you can bring out all the best I can do
I believe you turned the tide
And make me feel real good inside
[Verse 2]
You pushed me up when I'm about to give up
You're on my side when no one seems to listen
And if you go, you know the tears can't help but show
You'll break this heart and tear it apart
And suddenly the madness starts
[Chorus]
It's your smile, your face, your lips that I miss
Those sweet little eyes that stare at me
And make me say, I'm with you through all the way
'Cause it's you who fills the emptiness in me
It changes everything you see
When I know I've got you with me
[Verse 3]
You pushed me up when I'm about to give up
You're on my side when no one seems to listen
And if you go, you know the tears can't help but show
You'll break this heart and tear it apart
And suddenly the madness starts
[Chorus]
It's your smile, your face, your lips that I miss
Those sweet little eyes that stare at me
And make me say, I'm with you through all the way
'Cause it's you who fills the emptiness in me
It changes everything you see
When I know I've got you with me
[Instrumental Break]
[Chorus]
It's your smile, your face, your lips that I miss
Those sweet little eyes that stare at me
And make me say, I'm with you through all the way
'Cause it's you who fills the emptiness in me
It changes everything you see
When I know I've got you with me

Shania Twain - From This Moment On (1997)
From this moment, life has begun
From this moment, you are the one
Right beside you is where I belong
From this moment on
From this moment, I have been blessed
I live only for your happiness
And for your love, I'd give my last breath
From this moment on
I give my hand to you with all my heart
I can't wait to live my life with you, I can't wait to start
You and I will never be apart
My dreams came true because of you
From this moment, as long as I live
I will love you, I promise you this
There is nothing I wouldn't give
From this moment on, oh
You're the reason I believe in love
And you're the answer to my prayers from up above
All we need is just the two of us
My dreams came true because of you
From this moment, as long as I live
I will love you, I promise you this
There is nothing I wouldn't give
From this moment, I will love you
As long as I live, from this moment on
It's a human sign
When things go wrong
When the scent of her lingers
And temptation's strong
Into the boundary
Of each married man
Sweet deceit comes calling
And negativity lands
Cold cold heart
Hard done by you
Some things look better, baby
Just passing through
And it's no sacrifice
Just a simple word
It's two hearts living
In two separate worlds
But it's no sacrifice
No sacrifice
It's no sacrifice at all
Mutual misunderstanding
After the fact
Sensitivity builds a prison
In the final act
We lose direction
No stone unturned
No tears to damn you
When jealousy burns
Cold, cold heart
Hard done by you
Some things look better, baby
Just passin' through
And it's no sacrifice
Just a simple word
It's two hearts livin'
In two separate worlds
But, it's no sacrifice
No sacrifice
It's no sacrifice, at all
Cold, cold heart
Hard done by you
Some things look better, baby
Just passin' through
And it's no sacrifice
Just a simple word
It's two hearts livin'
In two separate worlds
But, it's no sacrifice
No sacrifice
It's no sacrifice, at all
No sacrifice, at all
No sacrifice, at all
No sacrifice, at all
No sacrifice, at all
And I never thought I'd feel this way
And as far as I'm concerned
I'm glad I got the chance to say
That I do believe I love you
And if I should ever go away
Well, then close your eyes and try
To feel the way we do today
And then if you can remember
Keep smilin', keep shinin'
Knowing you can always count on me for sure
That's what friends are for
For good times and bad times
I'll be on your side forever more
That's what friends are for
Well, you came and opened me
And now there's so much more I see
And so by the way I thank you
Oh and then for the times when we're apart
Well, then close your eyes and know
These words are coming from my heart
And then if you can remember
Oh, keep smilin' and keep shinin'
Knowing you can always count on me for sure
That's what friends are for
In good times and bad times
I'll be on your side forever more
Oh, that's what friends are for
Keep smilin', keep shinin'
Knowing you can always count on me for sure
That's what friends are for
For good times and bad times
I'll be on your side forever more
That's what friends are for
Keep smilin', keep shinin'
Knowing you can always count on me for sure
'Cause I tell you that's what friends are for
For good times and for bad times
I'll be on your side forever more
That's what friends are for (that's what friends are for, ya)
On me for sure (count on me for sure, count on me for sure)
That's what friends are for
Keep smilin', keep shinin'
I took my baby on a Saturday bang
Boy is that girl with you?
Yes we're one and the same
Now I believe in miracles
And a miracle has happened tonight
But, if you're thinkin' about my baby
It don't matter if you're black or white
They print my message in the Saturday Sun
I had to tell them I ain't second to none
And I told about equality and it's true
Either you're wrong or you're right
But, if you're thinkin' about my baby
It don't matter if you're black or white
I am tired of this devil
I am tired of this stuff
I am tired of this business
Sew when the going gets rough
I ain't scared of your brother
I ain't scared of no sheets
I ain't scared of nobody
Girl, when the going gets mean
Protection
For gangs, clubs, and nations
Causing grief in human relations
It's a turf war on a global scale
I'd rather hear both sides of the tale
See, it's not about races
Just places, faces
Where your blood comes from
Is were your space is
I've seen the bright get duller
I'm not going to spend my life being a color
Don't tell me you agree with me
When I saw you kicking dirt in my eye
But, if you're thinkin' about my baby
It don't matter if you're black or white
I said if you're thinkin' of being my baby
It don't matter if you're black or white
I said if you're thinkin' of being my brother
It don't matter if you're black or white
Ooh, ooh
Yea, yea, yea now
Ooh, ooh
Yea, yea, yea now
It's black, it's white
It's tough for you to get by (yeah, yeah, yeah)
It's black, it's white
It's black, it's white
It's tough for you to get by (yeah, yeah, yeah)
It's black, it's white
