Shine - Cassidy Ladden
From the movie: Barbie and the 12 Dancing Princesses
there's a place where you can go,
where your heart is free,
there's a rhythm that's right for you soul
take a breath, find your courage, and make the leap
cause your feet always knows where to go
and you dance and you dance in an endless flow
in the grace of a perfect design
stepping out of the dark and into the glow
the whole world will see
when you shine, you can shine, shine
there's a beauty already inside of you
there's a difference that only you'll make
every place that you spin brings you somewhere new
finding hope every step that you take
and you dance and you dance in an endless flow
in the grace of a perfect design
stepping out of the dark and into the glow
and the whole world will see when you shine
you can shine, shine
suddenly, sparkling bright
decked in a magical light
you will (shine)
sisters are there by your side
love will be your guide
and we dance and we dance in an endless flow
in the grace of a perfect design
stepping out of the dark and into the glow
the whole world will see when we shine
We will shine
Shine
(and we dance and dance in an endless flow)
stepping out of the dark and into the glow
(stepping out of the dark and into the glow
we will shine, shine
(we can shine, shine)
(and we dance and dance in an endless flow)
stepping out of the dark and into the glow
(stepping out of the dark and into the glow
we will shine, shine
(we can shine, shine)

Way Back Into Love
from the movie: MUSIC AND LYRICS
I've been living with a shadow overhead
I've been sleeping with a cloud above my bed
I've been lonely for so long
Trapped in the past, I just can't seem to move on
I've been hiding all my hopes and dreams away
Just in case I ever need em again someday
I've been setting aside time
To clear a little space in the corners of my mind
All I want to do is find a way back into love
I can't make it through without a way back into love
Oh oh oh I've been watching but the stars refuse to shine
I've been searching but I just don't see the signs
I know that it's out there
There's got to be something for my soul somewhere
I've been looking from someone to shed some light
Not just somebody just to get me through the night
I could use some direction
And I'm open to your suggestions
All I want to do is find a way back into love
I can't make it through without a way back into love
And if I open my heart again
I guess I'm hoping you'll be there for me in the end
There are moments when I don't know if it's real
Or if anybody feels the way I feel
I need inspiration
Not just another negotiation
All I want to do is find a way back into love
I can't make it through without a way back into love
And if I open my heart to you
I'm hoping you'll show me what to do
And I you help me to start again
You know that I'll be there for you in the end
*** I love the movie and I love the song even more. My husband and I watched the movie valentines day and it was so right. The movie was so sweet/romantic. and this song most specially caught our attention. The melody is just right and the lyrics poignant. I think even those who didn't or wasn't able to watch the movie will love the song. :sigh: love is in the air...

Hawak-kamay - Yeng Constantino

Minsan madarama mo kay bigat ng problema
Minsan mahihirapan ka at masasabing “di ko na kaya”
Tumingin ka lang sa langit
Baka sakaling may masumpungan
Di kaya ako’y tawagin Malalaman mong kahit kailan
[chorus]
Hawak-kamay
Di kita iiwan sa paglakbay
Dito sa mundong walang katiyakan
Hawak-kamay
Di kita bibitawan sa paglalakbay
Sa mundo ng kawalan
Minsan madarama mo
Ang mundo’y gumuho sa ilalim ng iyong mga paa
At ang agos ng problema’y tinatangay ka
Tumingin ka lang sa langit
Baka sakaling may masumpungan
Di kaya ako’y tawagin
Malalaman mong kahit kailan
[repeat chorus]
[bridge]
Wag mong sabihin nag-iisa ka
Laging isipin meron kang kasama
Narito ako oh, Narito ako
[repeat chorus]
Sa mundo ng kawalan Hawak-kamay, Hawak-kamay Sa mundo ng kawalan
*** Hawak Kamay is a catchy tune, an original composition by one of the participants called 'scholars' of the reality filipino tv show Pinoy Dream Academy. The song reached number one is various count downs in the country coz of it's nice tune and lyrics which are apt for whatever suits your fancy (?). It can be dedicated to a boyfriend/girlfriend, a friend, it can even be religious in a roundabout way. My daughter likes Yeng and this song is one of the first songs which caught her attention of all the PDA original songs and she memorized the song easily. Overall this song is top rated :)

Iingatan Ka
by: Carol Banawa
Sa buhay kong ito
Tanging pangarap lang
Ang iyong pagmamahal
ay makamtan
Kahit na sandali
kita ay mamasdan
Ligaya'y tila bang
walang hanggan
Sana'y di na magising
Kung nangangarap man din
Kung ang buhay na makulay
ang tatahakin
Minsan ay madarapa
minsan din ay luluha
Di ka na maninindim
pagkat sa buhay mo
ay may nagmamahal pa rin
Iingatan ka
Aalagaan ka
Sa puso ko ikaw ang pag-asa
Sa 'ting mundo
may gagabay sa iyo
Ang alay ko'y itong pagmamahal ko
May nagmamahal, aakay sa iyo
Aking inay ikaw ang nagbigay
ng buhay ko
Buhay na kay ganda
Pangarap ko na makamtan ko na
Sana'y di na magising
Kung nangangarap man din
Kung ang buhay na makulay
Ang tatahakin
Minsan ay madarapa
minsan din ay iluluha
Di ka na maninindim
pagkat sa buhay mo
ay may nagmamahal pa rin
Iingatan ka
Aalagaan ka
Sa puso ko ikaw ang pag-asa
Sa 'tin mundo
May gagabay sa iyo
Ang alay ko'y itong pagmamahal ko
May nagmamahal, aakay sa iyo
Aking inay ikaw ang nagbigay
ng Buhay ko
Buhay na kay ganda
Pangarap ko na makamtan ko na
Iingatan ka
Aalagaan ka
Sa puso ko ikaw ang pag-asa
Sa 'tin mundo
May gagabay sa iyo
Ang alay ko'y itong pagmamahal ko
May nagmamahal, aakay sa iyo
Aking inay ikaw ang nagbigay
ng Buhay ko
Buhay na kay ganda
Pangarap ko na makamtan ko na
**I have always been fond of this song, but today it felt specially poignant for me. Today my aunt celebrated her 60th birthday and my cousins had a surprise bday party for her. And part of their 'program' and thanksgiving for my aunt, they sung this song. And it became more meaningful for me since my mom just moved out of the country to stay with my sister in Canada for good that I became acutely aware of how much parents particularly mothers play an important role in the shaping of our lives.
