C'est La Vie

Let's see from up above
Great plans laid out for us
Where exactly we'd be in life
When our paths would meet
Oh how beautiful to see
You and me

You keep me safe always
You put the smile on my face
You make my heart race
You made it possible
You broke all barriers
And freed me

I watch you fall asleep
I turn my life around
I cradle you in my thoughts
I breathe a sigh of relief
Oh I can almost taste
Your sweet kiss

So real, there's no denying
A love that knows no limits
Bigger than you and me
It will carry us through
It's never ending
C'est la vie

Link

Drawing the line to confuse me
Tell me where love starts and ends
Why is it wrong when it makes sense
Who says it's not in this lifetime
When now it feels so real and so right

Almost lost you there in a blink
You just got back from death's brink
The taste of you I wanna drink
Set boundaries can't let the feeling sink
Cuz the universe itself formed this link

Should I flutter my wings to another
Seek peace, honor, and let it go
I am as everyone believes as wrong
But I am merely trying to smile
Isn't that what life's all about

Almost lost you there in a blink
You just got back from death's brink
The taste of you I wanna drink
Set boundaries can't let the feeling sink
Cuz the universe itself formed this link

If good things come to those who wait
Why let a whole lifetime take it away
Living in the moment is all I know
Love is meant to be that simple
Pure, raw, and no definition

Almost lost you there in a blink
You just got back from death's brink
The taste of you I wanna drink
Set boundaries can't let the feeling sink
Cuz the universe itself formed this link

Untitled

Not quite what you expected
Two big headed pretty women
Got everything going for us
It's gone up our heads

This big head can make it sizzle
Make that two and you'll wiggle
And you'll never see us care
So shake your tail feather

Don't get us started
We can rant all day
Every party hops with us
Amazing's our middle name

This big head can make it sizzle
Make that two and you'll wiggle
And you'll never see us care
So shake your tail feather

Look at us close and see
Beauty and brains do exist
We touch and it turns golden
Everyone else turns green

This big head can make it sizzle
Make that two and you'll wiggle
And you'll never see us care
So shake your tail feather

We dance and light up the floor
We got tricks up our sleeve
We make you feel good up and down
We'll rock your boring world

This big head can make it sizzle
Make that two and you'll wiggle
And you'll never see us care
So shake your tail feather

Bow down and adore from afar
Now just dream big and think big
We become great as we wanna be
Live like there's no tomorrow.

Soar

Running with the wind again
Months pass by ever so slowly
There was an end but it still blows me
My actions for which she won't account
It's she I chose to blame

I want no part of her
I have to pick me now
I see with my eyes closed
I now let it all go
I will soar high smiling

There are those things that bind us
Such as finding love and seizing it
When it leaves and you topple over
Just mourn and get angry
But expect calm after the storm

I want no part of her
I have to pick me now
I see with my eyes closed
I now let it all go
I will soar high smiling

Making it through brings character
Learning from it brings wisdom
Fearless at love but mindful of me
Strength is within arms' reach
Life can go on without her

I want no part of her
I have to pick me now
I see with my eyes closed
I now let it all go
I will soar high smiling

(Bridge)
I will rock someone's world
And she will rock mine
I will see right through
And it will all make sense
I will soar high smiling

The One That Got Away

I'm not into playing games
I don't like drama queens
I just want stable and simple
I have no qualms, I'm all in.

If you say no, I won't fight it.
I have every right to shun it.
I won't dare open your shutters.
For I'm the one that got away.

I'm a looker, quite a stunner.
I walk in and heads turn my way.
I stare at you and you will stammer.
I only see you in a sea of faces.

If you say no, I won't fight it.
I have every right to shun it.
I won't dare open your shutters.
For I'm the one that got away.

I don't like hold ups so I'll pass.
I want progress and movement.
I see your substance and beauty.
I think we're ripe for the taking.

If you say no, I won't fight it.
I have every right to shun it.
I won't dare open your shutters.
For I'm the one that got away.

Triggered Me

It hit me like a dagger
It made me run like the wind
It dawned on me I'm weak
It was quite a trigger

Triggered me to cry
Triggered me to lose
Triggered me to break
Triggered me

All these strikes blow my ego
All the past I left buried deep
All the sorrow I already let go
All came rushing back

Triggered me to cry
Triggered me to lose
Triggered me to break
Triggered me

The past strikes, the past lies
The past pains, the past insecurities
The past abuse, the past neglect
The past love, the past me

Triggered me to cry
Triggered me to lose
Triggered me to break
Triggered me

I am worn out, shaken and stirred
I would rather fix it but cannot
I am enough but really not
I wanna forget, shut down, move on

Triggered me to cry
Triggered me to lose
Triggered me to break
Triggered me

Been here too many times before.
What is there for me to know?
I see a good person no one wants.
Why can't fate leave it behind?

Triggered me to cry
Triggered me to lose
Triggered me to break
Triggered me

Come Full Circle

Sometimes it's okay to be weak
Sometimes I think you want me to be perfect
Sometimes I wish I never showed that side of me
Sometimes it's best to just mask it all.

I didn't see it coming
You have fallen out of love
I keep blaming myself
But is it really my fault?

You say you did not want to hurt me
You wanted to try another lover
You struggle with your own monsters
You felt overwhelmed and weak.

But I really understand how you feel
I miss you up to the last minute we loved
You protected me from the pain
I honor you for your honesty.

I hold on to a hope for us
Because I already know we'd be great
You said you needed to figure it out
I feel for you more than anything.

I know if you find yourself
We'd both go full circle
But if you would rather not be with me
I wish you well ma cherie amour.

Let's Love

Let's love as though there's no tomorrow
Let's love like we've never loved before
Let's love and live happy
Let's love and work through adversity
Let's love and never let it go

No roles to play
No rules to set or follow
No rights or wrongs

I love you and it still tingles
I am fully aware of its strength
I will carry it with me forever

We don't have an American dream
We made it out here on our own
We finally found each other

It's all I ever wanted
It caught me by surprise
It makes me feel alive

I want a life with you
I know it's worth jumping
I think we'll make it good

Repeat for Emphasis

I think think think about you
Nothing more I'd rather do
Because today was so much fun
But I want you in it
I want us in it
I want us in it

I check check check on my phone
I wanna get your message
Because today I feel you close
The love's quite overwhelming
It's clearer than before
It's clearer than before

I want want want to hold you
It's almost an addiction
Because today I love you more
It just grows like everyday
Each and every way
Each and every way

I sleep sleep sleep without you
Can't time go any faster?
Because today we step back
For individual expression
Though we're inseparable
Though we're inseparable

I give give give it all for love
You are so amazing
Because today I believe
Always you and me
Forever we will be
Forever we will be

Our Love

You are my one and only love
With you is where I wanna be
Your heartbeat keeps me breathe even
Wrapped up in your arms at night

We have a love that's just effortless
The chemistry still leaves me breathless
Foreign bodies prove love's borderless
We're two strong threads tied seamless

My smile seems sweeter because of you
My fears melt knowing you love me too
My future is clearer with you in it
My heart feels safe in your care

We have a love that's just effortless
The chemistry still leaves me breathless
Foreign bodies prove love's borderless
We're two strong threads tied seamless

When I think of all the past and present
I shake myself to know if I'm dreaming
You make me feel it's okay to be me
Together forever is possible after all

We have a love that's just effortless
The chemistry still leaves me breathless
Foreign bodies prove love's borderless
We're two strong threads tied seamless

Cut Those Nails

They say it all starts out strong.
And then it won't last too long.
You create this world of wonder.
As though life could only get better.

So brace yourself cuz I am coming.
You don't need to change a thing.
Cut those nails short and we're golden.
Cuz I'll be hanging around more often.

Baby how I love you evermore.
Each day I know we're stronger.
I still think you're beautiful.
I still feel there's only forever.

So brace yourself cuz I am coming.
You don't need to change a thing.
Cut those nails short and we're golden.
Cuz I'll be hanging around more often.

Happy Feet

I love the honesty in our love.
It makes me want to sing.
You are the highlight of my day.
I know our lifetime is happening.

Let's love each other forever.
Our love story feels quite surreal.
Soon it will fall into place.
Let's go have happy feet.

Goodness flows from your soul.
Your mind is a party land.
Your words give life to me.
I see beauty inside out.

Let's love each other forever.
Our love story feels quite surreal.
Soon it will fall into place.
Let's go have happy feet.

We got it right from the start.
Fly to my arms on an airbus.
Meet me halfway or go all the way.
It means you love me all the same.

Let's love each other forever.
Our love story feels quite surreal.
Soon it will fall into place.
Let's go have happy feet.

You on My Squeaky Old Bed

I had no idea you were coming along.
I may have been looking just for casual dating.
I heard your accent and I saw your face.
I had no strength to resist.

So I tossed and turned with you on my head.
Seeing you on my squeaky old bed.
Oh we talk and talk like there's no tomorrow.
All was just to let me know what I already know.

Your mind is as deep as the ocean.
Your heart is pure and stable.
Your smile makes me go dancing.
Your kiss is just French magic.

So I wonder what I am still waiting for.
Just spent the most amazing two days of my life.
I kinda wanna have it --not with anyone else--
Just with you on my squeaky old bed.

I Love You Like My Water

If I said I love you tonight and always,
Will you love me like I was your first?
If I showered you with time and affection,
And lived a simpler life for us both,
Could you picture me beside you during your waking moments?
Could you picture us staying together longer, or forever?

If I told you I miss you, though you had many other thoughts,
Would you bury your head under the pillow, and just forget?
Would you walk away from frustrations in life, or collide with them head on?
Why do you not want me to help make the load lighter?
Do you really have many reasons to go away, or not enough reason to stay?
Should my question be, "Do you really see yourself with me?"

You already know who I really am.
Time's just a number that scares you away.
I don't need it to tell me when it's the season to love.
Consider me in all your decisions.
Fight for us, and you'll never be alone.
Stay, and you'll never see me go.

Unwanted

I have emotional needs well within reason, and aren't being met. I have a girlfriend, and yet I really don't. I understand what you're going through. But I don't wanna feel unwanted. I wanna feel everyday that you think of me. I wanna be with someone who really wants to care for me. I wanna be with her, who really wants me. You must know I deserve more. Perhaps you deserve even more than me.

Something good came along, but you're still unhappy. What's a simple girl like me to do? I just want you to be happy. But I want the same for me too. I was surprised you'd want me to yourself. But why, when you couldn't give me yourself. Happiness starts at the core. You can't give what you do not have. My love can't make you happy. Me and my stupid hopes.

You ignored me because you were too busy. And why do you hurry when you're on the phone with me? Love finds a way, no matter how crazy today goes. It makes time, and says it's there. It says "I wish you were here to make it all better." And says it again the next day. My love knocked and gave you chances. Now time passed, and I'm still unwanted. You say we are in a good place, but why am I now crying? Me and this cruel irony.

Happiness, love, relationships, emotions - They're all black and white. If it's grey for you now, then you need more time. Maybe there'll be a you and me together later. No commitments, just plain fun, a fair trade, no lovefests. I'm letting you off the hook. Let's date each other, even other people too. Maybe you'll find your smile again. Maybe you can find life's sweeter then. Maybe then you'd know and declare love. Live like there's no tomorrow.

Now the love is still burning, and a bucket of tears are still flowing. I barely know you, but it hurts like hell. I've never been on this side of love before. One that's willing to let you go. You and that big old wall.

You messed me up. You were not ready. You needed time. You don't really want me. Just say it, and you'd see me going. If you say no, then mean it. Love me like you've never been hurt before. Or love me more because you were.

I am not the same anymore. I'm in love, and I'm blinded. But I can do it, so can you. I want more, so I'll be strong. I can leave where unwanted. Give it to me like you really don't want me. Or meet me halfway if you do.

There

I don't care about your past
Even if it catches up with you
I see its dark shadows cast
But it's just a little part of you
Just a little part of you.

I know you wanna do it alone
This can make your head spin
Sure you'd make it on your own
Am I crazy for trying to fit in
I really think I'd fit right in.

You want to work all night
To keep you from going crazy
Don't worry 'cause it's alright
But I'm there when you need me
Even when you don't need me.

With me, it's all about your joy
There you will always find me
I'd even drink my coffee with soy :-)
I wanna see you smile for me
Oh smile because of me.

My Astro Chart

Hi there, here is the interpretation of the astrological chart that you asked for. Also attached is a .GIF graphic file which depicts your chart wheel. Thank you for visiting the Astrolabe WEB site at http://alabe.com This report has been created especially for you. It represents your Unique picture at the time you were born and at the place you were born. If you are unsure of the exact time of day of your birth (or the date or the place), the reading will probably not seem as accurate as it could be in certain places, but other parts will seem to be very appropriate. You will notice at certain places in the reading that contradictory information seems to be given. This is to be expected, because the personality of most people is extremely complex. For example, at times we are quite shy and at other times we are very aggressive, and so forth. You will also notice that, at certain points in the reading, certain patterns may be repeated over and over, especially in a longer more detailed report than this one. This is also to be expected. This simply means that your horoscope has an extremely strong focus on this particular pattern and that you should pay extra close attention to what is said about it. Now, on with your Report!

Name: Rachelle Manganti
June 6 1978
3:00 PM Time Zone is AWDT
Manila, PHIL

Rising Sign is in 14 Degrees Libra
Very attractive and popular, your charm helps you to get your own way and prevents others from getting angry with you. "Peace and harmony at all costs" is your battle cry. You always try to ameliorate or to cosmetically hide any physical ugliness or any angry feelings between people. Flashy, but not gaudy, you prefer to dress elegantly. You generally have good taste in music, art and literature. Beware of the tendency to compromise yourself in your attempt to be agreeable at all times. A bit of a social butterfly, at times you can be vain and lazy. For the most part, however, you are gracious and affectionate, and your refined and aristocratic demeanor serves as a role model to others.

Sun is in 15 Degrees Gemini.
You have a quick, bright and agile mind, but an extremely short attention span. You love the external, kaleidoscopic aspects of life, but you tend to avoid (and even fear) deep, close emotional involvements. As such, you seem to enjoy travel and sightseeing and generally being "on-the-go." You get quite listless when things around you become static and dull, but your excitement returns whenever you are stimulated by a new idea. Chatty, inquisitive and quite playful, you enjoy practical jokes and games in general. Your moods change quickly and often -- you are very restless and constantly in motion. You are known for your versatility and adaptability. Your vivaciousness enlivens any social gathering.

Moon is in 20 Degrees Gemini.
Restless in the extreme, you are easily bored because of your short attention span. Your emotions change rapidly and you love to talk about your feelings. Generally, you have good judgment -- your intellect controls your emotions and you do not overreact emotionally to things. A good jack-of-all-trades, you have many- sided interests and enjoy reasoning things through. With your mental agility and need for physical mobility, you are attracted to traveling and learning about other peoples and cultures. You have vivid powers of emotional self-expression - - you can be a nonstop talker. You love to share your ideas with anyone who will listen.

Mercury is in 05 Degrees Gemini.
Your mind is active, quick and agile. You are very restless and you get bored easily. Unless you receive constant mental stimulation, you become extremely nervous and begin to act in an unstable manner. You are probably a good student because of your natural inquisitiveness. You also love to travel. Your learning tends to be superficial, though, because you have a relatively short attention span. Try to develop the mental discipline to finish what you start. Also, you tend to talk on at times seemingly just to fill space -- make sure that your conversation has some substance to it or others will start avoiding you.

Venus is in 18 Degrees Cancer.
You like to be very close to other people. You need emotional support yourself and are willing to give it to others. When you feel unloved and insecure, you can be very jealous and possessive. You are not interested in casual or superficial relationships -- only deep emotional involvements interest you. Your faithful devotion is one of your greatest gifts, but be careful not to become too dependent on others. Learn to stand on your own two feet and demand your own rights once in a while.

Mars is in 25 Degrees Leo.
You are a very proud person. Strong, bold, courageous and self-possessed, you love to be the one to initiate significant actions. When people expect a lot of you, you respond positively and will work hard in order to maintain their respect. But when your dignity or pride is threatened, you tend to become sarcastic, arrogant and domineering. Try not to take any challenge or resistance that you meet as a personal affront. You are very stubborn about your right to live your life according to your own principles.

Jupiter is in 10 Degrees Cancer.
You must be emotionally secure in order to grow and develop. You are happiest when your family and community support and nourish you and boost your morale. Whether your childhood experiences of love and emotional dependability were positive or negative will set the tone for your emotional growth and stability as an adult. When you feel at ease with yourself, you are able to offer assistance to those who need a helping hand.

Saturn is in 25 Degrees Leo.
Extremely self-reliant, you set very high standards of conduct and decorum for yourself, and you expect others with whom you associate to be that way, too. It is important that you had a strong father figure or role model early in life to mold your life course and direction. When you feel that those around you are unworthy or behaving badly, you withdraw, preferring solitude rather than associating with those who might besmirch your reputation.

Uranus is in 13 Degrees Scorpio.
You, and your peer group, demand to confront life at its deepest and most meaningful levels. Very compulsive and obsessive in your approach to everything, you will avoid anything that is casual or superficial, especially when it comes to relationships. You will seek out and explore new methods of healing as well as different ways to deal with deep-seated emotional problems.

Neptune is in 16 Degrees Sagittarius.
You, and your entire generation, are heavily involved in investigating and idealizing foreign and exotic intellectual systems and religious philosophies. The most extreme ideals will be pursued with gusto. You will be at the forefront of humanitarian attempts to improve the lot of those who are in need of assistance. You will be comfortable with the concept of the "global village."

Pluto is in 13 Degrees Libra.
For your entire generation, this is a time of radical changes in society's attitude toward marriage and interpersonal relationships. There is a general fear and awe at the power inherent in making emotional or contractual commitments -- they will not be entered into lightly.

N. Node is in 03 Degrees Libra.
You find it very difficult to be comfortable being alone -- you would much prefer to be in an environment where many people are working together toward common goals. Your charming and sincere approach to others assures your popularity -- you have the gift of being able to ease tensions just by your mere presence. You're the perfect "team player" willing to sacrifice your own importance so that the group goal can be accomplished. Be careful, however, not to become overly dependent on your interactions with others -- you have personal private needs that should not be neglected.

Holding Me Back


So tough to see past the heartaches you caused.
How can one carry that burden too long?
All the ugliness, bitterness she feels for you,
Evokes such emotions that run over, rule over,
Saddens her, wearies her, buries her.

So I’m holding back because I am afraid.
The scars of her past, they dig down too deep.
Maybe when you heal you will change your mind.
Hope it’s not too late for us to be together.
Saddens me, wearies me, buries me.

I really feel you and it makes me wonder.
How can one I barely know win me over?
Your life does not get the better of me.
Only your fear and mine will see our end.
Saddens us, wearies us, buries us.

Love Again

She knows she put that smile on your face.
She knows you appreciate her cute little ways.
She knows that eventually you will say yes.
She knows you would love her until it hurts.

You hope it’s her when your phone rings.
You even gave her all your belongings.
You think of her, and your heart sings.
You adore her even when her love stings.

She was so real, and now she lingers.
She created for you the perfect universe.
She had beauty that no one else bears.
She was unique, and no one else matters.

You lead a different life, but you still see her.
You say damn her, cu’z she’s just so unfair.
You have another, but you know you still care.
You don’t know how to get better…

She taught you to love 'with' fear and exception.
She is gone, but she still holds you down.
She made you bleed till love’s all gone.
She has moved on, and you want to be alone.

You open your eyes, see, I ain’t leavin’.
You can cry it all out, you know I'd listen.
You don’t need to worry, there’s no rushin’.
You can have me, honey, just...let me in.
