The Toll Is Too Much To Pay

The toll is too much to pay
For a little peace and happiness
Of keeping our lifestyle that you gave to us
Now we have to work hard and spend less

Darling, I think forgetting you will not come
And my grief is putting a toll on our son
I have pampered him before in his youth
Now the problem of surviving is giving him a hard time

I just pray to God that he finds the right vocation
To support his family of our newer generations
Then I can happily go with you
When I find him settled steadily with his family

How Can Love Songs Matter

How can love songs matter if there is no you
All the tunes sound like one note of loneliness
And all the lyrics my love just make me blue
With all the men around I can't settle for second best

My aching heart inside cries with loneliness
Remembering our courtship together in some music bar
Can you stay for a while and in my heart build your nest
Then I can say to any tunes I hear, into my heart you are not so far

Aching Inside

I feel like I have the iron mask
Of being tough and stern among my peers
But deep inside I am aching
And alone inside is a lonely heart

I still miss the company of my husband
Who left me not for another woman but God
He answered God's call from above
I still search for the sign of his presence around

My husband I hope it is not too late to tell you
That I do love you with all my heart
Though I still fancy that other men are attracted to me
You can be assured that you still have my devotion

Please guide me in all the investments I am making
It is from your provision to us
Let me make it with your son till my turn comes
In this cold and indifferent world around

Style Mo Bulok

Bulok ang style mo nang panliligaw
Kadiri ka pa sa langaw
Pasensiya na lamang kung kita'y tawanan
Pero hindi uubra iyan

Minsan dinadaan mo sa takutan
Akala mo kasing powerful ka ni Sadam
Lahat ng kilos mo ay unpolished
I would go for a real gentleman

Minsan dinadaan sa pakanta-kanta
Annoying to the ears and sight you know
Bakit ba ako ang pinupuntirya mo
Sugar mommy ba ang gusto mo?

Ako ba ay kalabaw na gustong gatasan
At tuntungan ng langaw
Intindihin na lamang ang trabaho pare ko
At huwag mang-hustle ng ibang tao.

Workaholic

I am a workaholic again
Had a leisurely life before
After I retired from office work
My husband provided me with everything
Now he is gone I have to earn my living

Work done keeps me self assured and fulfilled
My release from the sea of insanity
If being a workaholic will be called an illness
Damn them, they should look for other means to earn money
Busy as a bee, happy as can be

Chasing Happiness

Chasing happiness is hard if not meant
The more you go after it the more it is spent
Like a fleeting butterfly it flies away
Just like a captured moment that refuses to stay
Happiness is from God He gives it readily
For those who show love and with Faith steady

For it is such a simple equation
Love equals happiness in your dominion
And God gives it happily
For all who welcome it easily

Oh Moon Shining Brightly

Oh moon shining so bright
Have you seen my love tonight
I missed him everyday
Eversince he went away

Oh moon above the sky
Can you see him from on high?
I don't know why he left
Maybe it is something I said

Oh moon shine on his way tonight
Guide him with your bright light
Then lead him to where I am
I will wait for him till he does come

Is he with someone close
I hope his coming back to me she will not oppose
Can you come between them and bring him to me
Then life will be as happy as can be
