"Lucky"

I came across this song a few days back and immediately I smile, silly smile, smile of someone who thinks she knows better but she doesn't. I guess it's the smile of happiness, thinking of two particular love birds whose smile I could hardly stand (too cute to look away, yet I am too proper to keep my stare and admire the pure sincerity and happiness) So I sms the guy, 'cuz his gf has a good habit of losing her dear phone, up to a point, I have 3 numbers with the same name, none of which works... sigh. 

Hey there, yes, 2 of you, this song is tailor-made for you. I like it much and much more cuz it constantly reminds me of you. I wonder if you two enjoy this type of old-generation music, no Avril, no Simple Plan, haha, no screaming yearning... but yet, bear with me, this chilling and ... just happy, simple yet so happy song is a beautiful ending I hope to see you in.

Duong:
Do you hear me, 
I'm talking to you 
Across the water across the deep blue ocean 
Under the open sky, oh my, baby I'm trying 

Rep:
Boy I hear you in my dreams 
I feel your whisper across the sea 
I keep you with me in my heart 
You make it easier when life gets hard 

Both:
I'm lucky I'm in love with my best friend 
Lucky to have been where I have been 
Lucky to be coming home again 
Ooohh ooooh oooh oooh ooh ooh ooh ooh 

Either (suit both)
They don't know how long it takes 
Waiting for a love like this 
Every time we say goodbye 
I wish we had one more kiss 
I'll wait for you I promise you, I will 

Duong:
I'm lucky I'm in love with my best friend 
Lucky to have been where I have been 
Lucky to be coming home again 
Lucky we're in love every way 
Lucky to have stayed where we have stayed 
Lucky to be coming home someday 


Duong:
And so I'm sailing through the sea 
To an island where we'll meet 
You'll hear the music fill the air 
I'll put a flower in your hair 

Rep:
though the breezes through trees 
Move so pretty you're all I see 
As the world keeps spinning round 
You hold me right here right now 

Both:
I'm lucky I'm in love with my best friend 
Lucky to have been where I have been 
Lucky to be coming home again 
Ooohh ooooh oooh oooh ooh ooh ooh ooh 


Monkey in the strange, absurd land:
Ooohh ooooh oooh oooh ooh ooh ooh ooh 
Ooooh ooooh oooh oooh ooh ooh ooh ooh


Dear you,
I could not help but smiling and wish the second verse of this song will come true to you one day, of course I do think of the absurd coconut and the 2 of you running around it like any typical Bollywood movie... I mean, a day when you can be together. I understand it's extremely hard, to love someone so much, yet unable to cross the streets, walk the distance to touch your lover's hand, or simply hear her laugh, see the pinky blush color on her cheek. 

So I write this to you, inspired by this particular song that truly touch my heart (words of wisdom? no, take it as a few lines from someone who cares, who believes, who loves and believe she knows what love truly is about). Just so every time you feel beaten by prejudice, gossip and rumor, every single time you feel like letting go. Remember this, from me. I do save a space in my heart for you and you. Not shown, yet I care. I do

You are lucky, very lucky to have found each other and fall in love, to have touch the other person's heart and soul. How odd can that be? 2 years knowing one another, without recognizing he/she is the ONE for me. So lucky to be in love with someone who understands and cares, to be in love with your best friend. How odd can that be? 2 single souls in the world wide... like two tiny fish in the vast ocean. So congratulation, like finding your treasure, hold it close.

They really are clueless, absolutely no idea, how happy, bubbly it is to be in love and of course, they don't know how hard you guys are going through. And they don't deserve to know it, take it easy, dear, there are so much more objections, obstacles along the way. I don't wonder if you can make it, I believe if you really want it, and as long as you still have the other person's image engrave in your heart... one fine morning, you will wake up knowing this is the happy ending and a beautiful beginning

So, don't let go, ok? Not without a fight, and a good fine fight. 'Cuz when you look back, the winning battle is always sweeter. I wish you all the best

For Duong: lol in plain English, you are my true younger brother and thx for everything you have felt for me, as a non-related sister. I could not ask for more. Keep your passion flaming, keep your desire restless, and your dreams high. I am, a click away, a phone call. You will never, have to get depressed alone (my offer, your choice to press the button and we can talk ^^, craps or business)
For Rep: He is coming home. Take a deep breath, and think of him, when you open your eyes, his hands are within your reach. Alert me which street you two are crossing, 'cuz it's too embarrassing for me not to stare haha, at two smiling idiots who I love. Keep him wanting to go home, ok? You have a choice, to be unhappy and think "Damn another day WITHOUT Duong" OR smile and think "YAY, one day less to the moment we meet again" Keep yourself safe and sound. For a better day.

Long winded me should ends here before I sound like a good old whiny grand ma. May my blessing come to you, and btw, no need to shout each other name like the song... M1 cannot send your love, I am aware, lol. Why don't you deliver it, personally?

p/S: this is NOT in my Vietnamese blog for one good reason, I dont want my uncles and aunts who constantly read my blog, to misunderstand and misinterpret anything... GOsh, how much trouble blog gave me, yet, the idea of sharing, passing the passion and love keeps me on. Take care.
