My Songs

My Songs

If I have to write songs to make a living, when due day comes, I will surely end up losing my self-esteem and disrespect myself cause I will write lots of rubbish to beat the deadline. I need powerful stimulation to create. Therefore, although I have written some songs over the years, here are the only three I now recognize as my favourites and have escaped their fate of ending up in the garbage.

A dedication to Dr. Tony Lee Wong, who's been a guardian angel to my mother in her last days battling with cancer. Tony gave me courage and consolation, and stood by me through some of the difficult days in my entire life.

Unexpectedly

Unexpectedly, you walked in to my world,
why not stay a little while, add a page to my life.
Unexpectedly, you lifted me from depression,
so please stay a while, grace my life with your existence.

Unexpectedly, you soothed my weary soul,
what a nice surprise, to feel your strength from behind.
Unexpectedly, you walked into my world,
I'm so please to be able to see your smile.

Chorus:
Unexpectedly, you gave me strength to move on,
then suddenly, you became the song of my day, the light of my night.
My heart was overflowing with pleasure,
pleasure to know you in my life.

Unexpectedly, you walked in to my world,
won't you stay a while, grace my life with your smile?
Unexpectedly, you walked in to my world,
I'm so pleased to know you in my life!

Here is a song dedicated to my noble at heart best friend who crosses the five lakes, four seas, exploring and witnessing the true beauty and ugliness of the world, lending a hand to the people in need wherever he goes.

Dreamy Eyes

Dreamy eyes, what's in your mind tonight?
Anyhow, I can tell from your eyes.
Your face, I carefully observe,
sad or joy, or getting real uptight?

Little conversation in between us,
your mind, I can easily read.
Time is short, and life is brief,
you gotta go search, for what you need.

Chorus:
The world stopped revolving,
when a smile lit up your eyes.
Loneliness possessed me,
whenever you were out of my sight.
I can see light, I can see right,
wherever dreamy eyes shine!

(group harmony)
Ba ba ba bab, ba ba ba bab, ba ba ba bab, ha.....

Give me a sign, by the time you leave,
although I, can hardly even breathe,
go search, for what you need,
set your soul free, that's what I believe!

My latest composition is a dedication to my wonderful friend, Dominic Ng, CEO of the East West Bank and President of the United Way. Dominic is bright, admirable, musical and talented in his own unique way--much much more than a young cool CEO!

The Young Cool C E O

Hey Mr. Ng, Mr. Ng,
welcome, welcome to my city!
Hey Mr. Ng, Mr. Ng,
welcome, welcome to my city!
I'm going to tell you people, about this Young Cool C E O,
so put your ears a little closer now.

He makes eloquent speeches,
pours forth wisdom with sparkling eyes.
The Young Cool C E O,
with a halo that shines,
not the robotic phony type,
quite the sincere loving kind.

He's not just a C E O,
with diplomatic business mind.
I really mean to tell you,
He is sure one of a kind!
He's the Young Cool C E O,
whom I've learned to admire!

He hosted a Beatles show,
down in rich San Marino.
It was so unforgettable,
it's all because of the Young Cool C E O.
You see, nobody wanted to go,
at the end of the show.

Ooh Mr. Ng, Mr. Ng,
welcome, welcome to my city!
Hey Mr. Ng, Mr. Ng,
welcome, welcome to my city!
I want you to have a good time,
that's why I'm singing this song for you tonight.

I'm the very expressive kind,
so I tell you what's in my mind.
My Young Cool C E O,
I need you , I need you by my side!
Cause, I need you to watch over my savings account,
and make sure all the bad cheques that I write,
will be allllll......right!!!

When life is a desert, friendship is a cool glass of water.
I want to thank my friends for handing me that glass and the inspiration!
