Baka nga lang. // Could be.
Nakakapagtaka lang.
Hinahanap mo na siyang matagal, pero hindi mo lang nalalaman na katabi mo na pala siya, o nasa harap mo na buong buhay mo.
Nakakapagtaka lang.
Hindi mo napapansin ang taong hinahanap mo--baka hindi mo lang napapansin talaga. O baka iba lang ang tingin mo sa kanya kaya hindi mo napapansin. Ilang beses kong nasasabi ang pansin no? Pero malay mo nga lang naman.
Bakit nga kaya?
Baka hindi mo rin alam kung ano yung hinahanap mo--baka nga nagkakamali ka ng hinahanap.
Hindi mo lang napapansin, baka siya rin hindi alam na ikaw rin pala yung hinahanap niya.
Baka nga lang naman.
Palagi kayong magkasama, sabay kayong naghahanap ng hinahanap. Sa iba't ibang bagay na kayo napunta. Meron sa love life, skul--yung mga pinaka nakakairitang teacher hanggang sa pinaka masayang pagsasama niyo noong fair or kahit ano mang event iyon. Napagusapan niyo kung saan masayang magbakasyon, kung anong gustong gawin sa buhay... basta, marami pa. Tapos biglang napag-usapan niyo yung parehas niyong hinahanap. (na hindi niyo lang alam, katabi niyo ang isa't-isa)
Parehas naghahanap ng isang taong makakausap. Makakasama. Makakaintindi sa kalokohan mo. Makakatanggap ng lahat ng mga ka-weirohan mo. Makakasamang tumawa. Umiyak. Kumanta. Sumayaw.
Isang taong mamamahal, magpapasaya, magpapangiti sa iyo tuwing naiisip mo siya.
Pagtingin niyong dalawa sa ulap, biglang niyong naisip"Ah, imposible ngang mahanap ang tao na iyon. Masyado akong maraming hinihiling."
Hindi niyo lang napapansin ang hinahanap niyo ay isa't-isa lamang.
Kung kelan nalaman mong siya nga iyon, paglingon mo wala na siya.
Malamanlaman mo, naglaho na pala siya nang hindi mo lang namalayan.
It's just intriguing.
You've been looking for him for so long, but you never knew that he was right beside you, or right in front of you your whole life.
It's just intriguing.
You don't notice the person you're looking for--or you just can't notice him. Probably because you look at him differently, that's why you can't notice him. How many times have I said the word, "notice"? But you may never know.
Why?
Maybe you don't know what you're looking for--or you've been looking for the wrong thing.
You just don't notice him, you may never know what he's been searching for is you.
Could be.
You've always been together, looking at the same time. You went to different topics. There's love life, school--from the most annoying teacher to the most enjoyable times you had in the fair or in any other event. You talked about where you want to have a vacation, what you want to do with your life... and many more. Then you suddenly talked about the person you've been looking for (that you're right beside each other, you just don't know.)
Both of you are looking for someone to talk to. To be with. That understands all your mischievous acts. That accepts your weirdness. To laugh with. To cry with. To sing with. To dance with.
One person to love, that'll make you happy, make you smile everytime you think of him.
As both of you looked at the sky, both of you thought, "Ah, it's impossible to find the person I'm looking for. I ask for too many things."
You just don't notice that the person both of you are looking for are each other.
Just when you realized that it's him, you looked back and he's gone.
You just found out, he disappeared without you knowing it.
