OLD SKOOL



LEAVE A LIGHT ON

Take my hand
Tell me what you are feeling
Understand
This is just the beginning
Although I have to go
It makes me feel like crying
I dont know when Ill see you again

Darling leave a light on for me
Ill be there before you close the door
To give you all the love that you need

Darling leave a light on for me
cause when the world takes me away
You are still the air that I breathe

I cant explain I just dont know
Just how far
I have to go
But darling Ill keep the key
Just leave a light on for me

Yes I know
What Im asking is crazy
You could go
Just get tired of waiting
But if I lose your love
Torn out by my desire
That would be the one regret of my life
Just like a spark lights up the dark
Baby thats your heart



SUMMER RAIN

Whispering our goodbyes
Waiting for a train
I was dancing with my baby In the summer rain
I can hear him saying
Nothing will change
Come dancing with me baby In the summer rain
I remember the rain on our skin
And his kisses hotter than the Santa ana winds

Whispering our goodbyes
Waiting for a train
I was dancing with my baby
In the summer rain

I remember laughing til we almost cried (there at station that night)
I remember looking in his eyes

Oh my love, its you and that I dream of
Oh my love, since that day
Somewhere in my heart Im always
Dancing with you in the summer rain
Doesnt matter what I do now
Doesnt matter what I say
Somewhere in my heart Im always
Dancing with you in the summer rain

I can hear the whistle Military train
I was dancing with my baby In the summer rain
I can hear him singing
Ooh love is strange
Come dance with me baby In the summer rain
I remember the rain pouring down
And we poured our hearts out
As the train pulled out
I can see my baby
Waving from the train
It was last time that I saw him In the summer rain

Every time I see the lightening
Every time I hear the thunder
Every time I close the window
When this happens in the summer
Oh the night is so inviting
I can feel that you are so close
I can feel you when the wind blows
Blows right through my heart

Every night and every day now
Though I know youve gone away
Somewhere in my heart Im always
Dancing with you in the summer rain


I love these 2 songs... and many more of hers... La Luna, Circle in the sand, Vision of you, Runaway Horses, Heaven is a Place on Earth.... you can find out more here.

Other than Belinda, my favourites includes Debbie Gibson's Electric Youth, Paula Abdul's Cold Hearted Snake and Straight up, almost all Mariah Carey's songs... some of NKOTB, BROS, Mr Big, Color Me bad, Martika, Sinead O'Connor, Rick Ashey, Kyle and Jason Donovan... I really thot they were gonna be together...

Listening to these songs too, reminds me of UMBRO skool bags. garfield bags. Reebok and L.A gear shoes, Sweet Dreams novel series, sweat shirts, baggy pants, Beverly Hills 90210, Smash Hits magazines, school canteen's mee rebus, the karipap plus kuah cicah at the pak guard's house, my uncle bus, my class rooms and my all girls school...
