More Ideas in Love

This song is one of the many reasons why I—we—am (are) all enthralled with the idea of falling in love. I couldn't help but pause and hold my breath the moment I heard the first few lines. Will I find that dream? Will I wake up one day and say that I have found that someone? Will I ever hold my breath again and say, "O My, that's my dream"?


How I miss that feeling of being in love.



When I First Saw You


**Jamie Foxx Version**


When I first saw you

I said "O My", I said "O My"

That's a dream

That's my dream

I needed a dream

When it all seemed to go bad

Then I found you

And I have had the most beautiful dreams any man's ever had


When I first saw you

I said "O My", "O My"

That's my dream

That's my dream

I needed a dream

To make me strong

You were the only reason I had to go on


[Chorus]

You were my dream

All the things I never knew

You were my dream

Who could believe they could ever come true

And who would believe

The world would believe

And my dreams too


When I first saw you

I said "O My", "O My"

That's my dream

Wala akong ma-comment kahapon nung nabasa ko 'to. Pero this morning, nagplay sa iPod ko yung song na "When I Saw You" and I was reminded of your post. Haha.

*******

Soft heavenly eyes gazed into me, transcending space and time and I was rendered still there were no words for me to find at all. As I stood there beside myself I could see you and no one else

When I saw you, when I saw you I could not breathe. I fell so deep. When I saw you, when I saw you I'd never be... I'd never be the same

Only once in a lifetime, love rushes in changing you with the tide. And dawn's ribbon of light bursts through the dark wakening you inside. And I thought it was all untrue until there, all at once, I knew

With no beginning and without an end, you are the one for me and it's evident. And your eyes told me so, your eyes let me know.

*******

This is one of the most beautiful songs Mariah has ever written/done. It makes me look forward to that moment when I'd say these things to someone, or when someone would say these things to me. Hay. Hahaha. :P
