A Childlike Response To The Nearness Of You

The origins of this Life Is Trying song came from my old-school Pentium 2 Dell PC at my old office, the melody eventually came out after I handed the lyrics to Cedric Buenviaje who composed the song's basic chord progression which was later on developed by Laixander Naguit and Mark De Guzman.



We stood face to face

But I can't see you

Look the same way

As you stared down



Awkward attraction

A case of infatuation

A melodramatic feeling

Of love and affection



I can't speak the words

That I long to say to you

My mind always splits in two

Everytime I look at you



Maybe this is love

Or am I just strung out

With a chlidlkie respones

To the nearness of you



You look so beautiful

And I look stupid

With my stupid hair

And my rundown clothes



Side-winded love songs

And basement poetry

Are all I can give

In thought and in theory



I can't speak the words

That I long to say to you

My mind always splits in two

Everytime I look at you



Maybe this is love

Or am I just strung out

With a chlidlkie respones

To the nearness of you
