On My Own (Les Misérables) Recording (09/07/21)

On My Own (Les Misérables)

(Link to On My Own ~ The Original London Cast)

And now I’m all alone again nowhere to go
No one to turn to
I did not want your money Sir
I came out here cause I was told to
And now the night is near
And I can make believe he’s here

Sometimes I walk alone at night
When everybody else is sleeping
I think of him and then I’m happy
With the company I’m keeping
The city goes to bed
And I can live inside my head

On my own, pretending he’s beside me
All alone, I walk with him ’til morning
Without him, I feel his arms around me
And when I lose my way I close my eyes
And he has found me

In the rain, the pavement shines like silver
All the lights are misty in the river
In the darkness, the trees are full of starlight
And all I see is him and me forever
And forever

And I know it’s only in my mind
That I’m talking to myself and not to him
And although I know that he is blind
Still I say, there’s a way for us

I love him, but when the night is over
He is gone, the river’s just a river
Without him, the world around me changes
The trees are bare and everywhere
The streets are full of strangers

I love him, but every day I’m learning
All my life, I’ve only been pretending
Without me, his world will go on turning
A world that’s full of happiness
That I have never known

I love him…
I love him…
I love him…
But only on my own

🌄 Morning Has Broken Recording

Morning Has Broken Recording 09/06/21

I’m not ready yet to start playing the guitar again, but I’m going to start singing again after not doing so for a long time. Thank goodness I stopped both contact tracing jobs. My voice turned hoarse for a long time, having to talk so much every day. It’s finally slowly starting to get better now…

Will be revising my recordings from time to time. Hope my voice will improve each and every time!

Here’s take one! 😃

Morning Has Broken

~ Cat Stevens

Morning has broken like the first morning
Blackbird has spoken like the first bird
Praise for the singing, praise for the morning
Praise for them springing fresh from the world

Sweet the rains new fall, sunlit from Heaven
Like the first dewfall on the first grass
Praise for the sweetness of the wet garden
Sprung in completeness where His feet pass

Mine is the sunlight, mine is the morning
Born of the one light, Eden saw play
Praise with elation, praise every morning
God’s recreation of the new day

Morning has broken like the first morning
Blackbird has spoken like the first bird
Praise for the singing, praise for the morning
Praise for them springing fresh from the world

When Love Became the Past – 當愛已成往事

當愛已成往事

當愛已成往事

李宗盛 · 林憶蓮

( Don’t bring up the past, life is already tough enough )
往事不要再提  人生已多風雨
wǎng shì bú yào zài tí    rén shēng yǐ duō fēng yǔ

( Although memories won’t go away, love and hate are kept in heart )
縱然記憶抹不去    愛與恨都還在心裏
zòng rán jì yì mò bú qù  ài yǔ hèn dōu hái zài xīn lǐ

( Cut ourselves from the past, let’s move on to a better tomorrow )
真的要斷了過去   讓明天好好繼續
zhēn de yào duàn le guò qù  ràng míng tiān hǎo hao jì xù

( Please don’t try to search for me anymore )
你就不要再苦苦追問我的消息
nǐ jiù bú yào zài kǔ kǔ zhuī wèn wǒ de xiāo xi

*Marking
( Love is a big puzzle, it makes us lose our directions )
愛情它是個難題   讓人目眩神迷
ài qíng tā shì gè nán tí  ràng rén mù xuàn shén mí

( I might forget the pain, but I can’t forget about you )
忘了痛或許可以    忘了你卻太不容易
wàng le tòng huò xǔ kě yǐ  wàng le nǐ què tài bù róng yì

( You have never left me, you are always in my heart )
你不曾真的離去    你始終在我心裏
nǐ bù céng zhēn de lí qù  nǐ shǐ zhōng zài wǒ xīn lǐ

( I’m still in love with you, I can’t do nothing about it )
我對你仍有愛意   我對自己無能為力
wǒ duì nǐ réng yǒu ài yì  wǒ duì zì jǐ wú néng wéi lì

( Because I still have dreams, I still have you in my heart )
因為我仍有夢   依然將你放在我心中
yīn wèi wǒ réng yǒu mèng yī rán jiāng nǐ fàng zài wǒ xīn zhōng

( I’m always moved by the past, my heart is always broken for you )
總是容易被往事打動    總是為了你心痛
zǒng shì róng yì bèi wǎng shì dǎ dòng     zǒng shì wèi le nǐ xīn tòng

( Don’t mind my inadvertent tenderness over the years )
別留戀歲月中我無意的柔情萬種
bié liú liàn suì yuè zhōng wǒ wú yì de róu qíng wàn zhǒng

( Don’t ask me whether we will meet again, don’t mind if I’m not telling the truth )
不要問我是否再相逢    不要管我是否言不由衷
bú yào wèn wǒ shì fǒu zài xiāng féng  bú yào guǎn wǒ shì fǒu yán bù yóu zhōng

( Why you just don’t understand, where there is love there is pain )
為何你不懂   只要有愛就有痛
wèi hé nǐ bù dǒng  zhǐ yào yǒu ài jiù yǒu tòng

( Someday you will realize that life won’t be any different without me )
有一天你會知道   人生沒有我並不會不同
yǒu yì tiān nǐ huì zhī dào  rén shēng méi yǒu wǒ bìng bú huì bù tóng

( Life is too short, I’m so afraid to be tearful all the time )
人生已經太匆匆   我好害怕總是淚眼朦朧
rén shēng yǐ jīng tài cōng cōng  wǒ hǎo hài pà zǒng shì lèi yǎn méng lóng

( Forget me then your pain will go away, let the past drift in the wind )
忘了我就沒有痛    將往事留在風中
wàng le wǒ jiù méi yǒu tòng  jiāng wǎng shì liú zài fēng zhōng

💗 Try?

Try

~ Pink

Woh-oh-oh
Woo-ooh-ooh-ooh

Ever wonder ’bout what he’s doin’

How it all turned to lies
Sometimes I think that it’s better
To never ask why

Where there is desire there is gonna be a flame
Where there is a flame, someone’s bound to get burned
But just because it burns doesn’t mean you’re gonna die
You’ve gotta get up and try, try, try
Gotta get up and try, try, try
Gotta get up and try, try, try

Hey-he-hey

Funny how the heart can be deceiving
More than just a couple times
Why do we fall in love so easy
Even when it’s not right?

No-oh-oh, no oh

Where there is desire there is gonna be a flame
Where there is a flame, someone’s bound to get burned
But just because it burns doesn’t mean you’re gonna die
You’ve gotta get up and try, try, try
Gotta get up and try, try, try
You’ve gotta get up and try, try, try

Ever worry that it might be ruined
And does it make you wanna cry?
When you’re out there doing what you’re doing
Are you just getting by?
Tell me, are you just getting by, by, by?

Where there is desire there is gonna be a flame
Where there is a flame, someone’s bound to get burned
But just because it burns doesn’t mean you’re gonna die
You’ve gotta get up and try, try, try
Gotta get up and try, try, try
You’ve gotta get up and try, try, try
Gotta get up and try, try, try
Gotta get up and try, try, try
You’ve gotta get up and try, try, try
Gotta get up and try, try, try

You’ve gotta get up and try, try, try
Gotta get up and try, try, try

There’s a loving in your eyes all the way
If I listen to your lies, would you say
I’m a man (a man) without conviction
I’m a man (a man) who doesn’t know
How to sell (to sell) a contradiction
You come and go, you come and go

Karma, karma, karma, karma, karma chameleon
You come and go, you come and go
Loving would be easy if your colors were like my dreams
Red, gold, and green, red, gold, and green

Didn’t hear your wicked words every day
And you used to be so sweet I heard you say
That my love (my love) was an addiction
When we cling (we cling), our love is strong
When you go (you go), you’re gone forever
You string along, you string along

Karma, karma, karma, karma, karma chameleon
You come and go, you come and go
Loving would be easy if your colors were like my dreams
Red, gold, and green, red, gold, and green

Every day is like survival (survival)
You’re my lover (my lover), not my rival
Every day is like survival (survival)
You’re my lover (my lover), not my rival

I’m a man (a man) without conviction
I’m a man (a man) who doesn’t know
How to sell (to sell) a contradiction
You come and go, you come and go

Karma, karma, karma, karma, karma chameleon
You come and go, you come and go
Loving would be easy if your colors were like my dreams
Red, gold, and green, red, gold, and green

Karma, karma, karma, karma, karma chameleon
You come and go, you come and go
Loving would be easy if your colors were like my dreams
Red, gold, and green, red, gold, and green

Karma, karma, karma, karma, karma chameleon
You come and go, you come and go
Loving would be easy if your colors were like my dreams
Red, gold, and green, red, gold, and green
