here going lost: track 3

I wrote More Than I Let You Know just this June. It's about person 1 and person 2 celebrating their first anniversary last July 2. At first I thought wow after writing so many bitter/bitter-sweet songs, I can write something more sweet than bitter. But sadly, one interpretation was that the song wasn't as positive as I had thought it was. And after listening to it for a couple of months, I understand their point. I had originally intended the song to say that even though i may or can not show how much I love you now, be assured that I really really do. And the most important thing to me right now is having you and making you as happy as possible. But on the glass-is-half-empty side, you can look at it as an unrequited love or loving-from-a-distance type. Oh well... Happy monthsary to person 1 and 2 tomorrow!

Charity-cd update: Posted a couple of bulletins at Multiply and Friendster. Official launch date on December 3. And then a special edition I'll work at to launch by February should include the final versions of Missin' Missin' You, remixes from DJ Drake Pineda and Wrecked Alias, plus additional versions of No Goodbyes from maybe Miguel Naranjilla, Mojo Jojo, and a couple of other guests. So watch out for that too!

How would you interpret More Than I Let You Know?

Love has come my way before
Then it couldn’t stay no more
When least expected- this new chance
You swept in to the rescue

Still amazed at how the stars
Had aligned and then conspired
To gift you to this fool aspiring,
Never tiring just for you

No doubt, I’m not the perfect match for you (but)
No indecision, though times I’ve said it few-
How much I love you so
Much more than I let you know

There were times that I’d be scared
Losing you- may I be spared
My happiness revolves around your happiness delivered

And still I can’t be everything to you (but)
Not one condition so that I’ll be true to
How much I love you so
Much more than I let you know

-instrumental-

No doubt, I’m not the perfect match for you (but)
No indecision, though times I’ve said it few-
How much I love you so

Much more than I let you know
