How can I?


I'm having a last song syndrome again. I got hold of an old song, "How can I?". I think most of you knew that this was sang by Lea Salonga during the 90's, but actually was part of Martin Nievera's album "The Best Gift". I'm posting the lyrics here for your enjoyment, and maybe if you remember the tune, sing along with it.

HOW CAN I?
Martin Nievera
(Ryan Cayabyab)


How can things go wrong
When you're here with me
All of time and space would stop
They'd stop for you and me

How can we go wrong
We're like words within a song
Perfect rhyme and perfect time
And perfect harmony

Now our words have lost their way
And all they seem to say
You don't intend to stay with me
Tell me why
When we have come this far
We're happy as we are
But now

How can I feel right
When you're not by my side
Strange that I'm here all alone
As I recall the happy times
The happy songs, the perfect rhymes
How can I go on
How can I move on
How can I, how can I
Without you

Now our words have lost their way
And all they seem to say
You don't intend to stay with me
Tell me why
When we have come this far
We're happy as we are
But now, now

How can I feel right
When you're not by my side
Strange that I'm here all alone
As I recall the happy times
The happy songs, the perfect rhymes
How can I go on
How can I move on
How can I, how can I, how can I
