The Sweetest Voice

"..Touch me, it's so easy to leave me. All alone with the memory of my days in the sun. If you touch me, you'll understand what happiness is.." -Grizabella, Cats

I watched Cats last night with my family. It was good but Lea Salonga was great. I've never heard her sing live before. Her voice was breathtaking. I just sat there, watching and listening in total awe. I heart her.

I remember when you used to sing for me, when I used to watch your competitions. The promise of your songs, how you made me feel them. I miss that feeling. I miss you. I know you're happy with her. I know she takes good care of you. I'm happy for you... truly, sincerely.

Sometimes I just wish I'm the one who's making you happy.


No more talk of darkness,
Forget these wide-eyed fears
I'm here, nothing can harm you
my words will warm and calm you
Let me be your freedom,
let daylight dry your tears.
I'm here with you, beside you,
to guard you and to guide you...

Say you love me every waking moment,
turn my head with talk of summertime
Say you need me with you now and always
Promise me that all you say is true
that's all I ask of you...

Let me be your shelter
let me be your light
You're safe, no one will find you
your fears are far behind you...

All I want is freedom,
a world with no more night
and you, always beside me, to hold me and to hide me...

Then say you'll share with me
one love, one lifetime
let me lead you from your solitude
Say you need me with you here, beside you...
anywhere you go, let me go too
that's all I ask of you...

Say you'll share with me one love, one lifetime...
say the word and I will follow you...
Share each day with me,
each night, each morning...

Say you love me...

You know I do...

Love me, that's all I ask of you
Anywhere you go let me go too
Love me, that's all I ask of you...
