my first requested composition for this year ^_^ nice lyrics Nikko.
im posting this here in the Blog section coz Multiply disabled music downloading, so i didnt bother to upload it.

anyway the lyrics was written by Nikko Ramos (hardcourthero.multiply.com), (sorry it took so long before i got to lay in music, but somehow i found time)

This song's supposedly based on the movies before sunset, sideways and moulin rouge and the likes. we were talking bout these types of movies way backand Nikko did the words, and i did the music as usual ^_^

my use of 'real drums' contrary to the loop-edited sampler beats is quite obvious (especially on the Kick) although still looped, its 'real' in a complicated way haha dont bother to comprehend.. and because of that some parts of the beat seem to be off but anyway...



"One Minute Before Take-off"
lyrics by Nikko Ramos
music by ioHann Garcia

(VERSE 1)
there's a whole lifetime inside sixty ticks
where you never think of giving your heels three clicks
but this yellow brick road only goes so far
and at the end you'll be nothing but a shooting star
like a burning book that i wish i read,
with a million words i wish i said
starring chararcters who kissed and hugged so tight
but nothing like the way we did that night
because no author could ever write
how our kisses never cared about wrong or right

(CHORUS)
later can be miles away
if here and now is where we stay
when now is good but I wish I could
just make this better
'coz this moment's all we have together
please make this minute last forever
and ever)

(VERSE 2)
i know all we're doing is racing the clock
thinking somehow we can beat the tick and the tock
looking at the lights that went to yellow from green
if it never goes to red,then its the best color i've ever seen
but i sense the end as i wipe your tear,
dont give me questions or conscience just hold me near
tell me you'll go on to live a happy life
tell me you'll go on to be someone's happy wife
don't worry 'bout me and the rest of my days
i'll always have our minute,that's where i'll always stay.

(CHORUS)

(bridge)
forget the world and what they'll say
they'll never approve this anyway
who cares about their rules just come what may
i dont care what they would think
i dont care how they would see
just make the most of this minute
now that you're with me

(adlib)
(chorus)
