It's So Close, But We're So Far Away

Well, this will be my last entry made in the US...for now. It's time I head back to the phils. I can't believe I'm already going back. It's bittersweet really. Let's just leave it at that.

I've been listening to "We're So Far Away" by Mae lately...and wow, it really does get to you when you're in this situation. It's a lovely song. I want to learn the piano part. Hm... some motivation... =)

Anyway, here are some pics that I took while I was here. I hope you all enjoy them. Mind you, I'm posting some pics I've posted in earlier entries...it's kinda like a little collage, w/o all the pictures meshing up together. Y'know? =)

And so ends my vacation here in Seattle. I will miss it, as always...
A song, which has caught my heart...

"We're So Far Away" - By Mae

Remembering, everything,
about my world and when you came.
Wondering, the change you’d bring,
means nothing else would be the same.
Did you know, what you were doing, did you know.
Did you know how you would move me well,
I don’t really think so.
but the night came down and swept us away.
and the stars they seemed,
to paint the most elaborate scene today.

How could we know? that song, this show,
we'd learn so much about ourselves.
From Toledo, to Tokyo,
the words were scribed on every page,
and now there’s books up on our shelves.
Did you know how you would move us, did you know?
When the lights first came upon us,
and we saw The Everglow.
and the moment's magic swept us away.
and the young mans dream was almost seen so plain.

When was the night
that showed us the sign?
Revealed in the sky, to leave all behind.
But where to begin? throwing caution to the wind,
We reached for the stars, everything was now ours.

Did you know how you would move me, did you know?
Did you know how you would move me?
well, I don’t even think so.
but the moment's magic swept us away.
and it’s so close, but we’re so far away.
It’s so close, but we’re so far away.

Well, that's all for now... viewing these pictures... reading this entry... listening to "We're So Far Away" .... it brings tears to my eyes. Tears of joy, tears of missing all my friends all over again, tears of... happiness, tears. =')
