Ode To My Family...

Understand the things I say, don't turn away from me,
'Cause I spent half my life out there, you wouldn't disagree.
Do you see me? Do you see? Do you like me?
Do you like me standing there? Do you notice?
Do you know? Do you see me? Do you see me?
Does anyone care?

Unhappiness where's when I was young,
And we didn't give a damn,
'Cause we were raised,
To see life as fun and take it if we can.
My mother, my mother,
She hold me, she hold me, when I was out there.
My father, my father,
He liked me, oh he liked me. Does anyone care?

Understand what I've become, it wasn't my design.
And people everywhere think, something better than I am.
But I miss you, I miss, 'cause I liked it,
'Cause I liked it, when I was out there. Do you know this?
Do you know you did not find me. You did not find.
Does anyone care?

Unhappiness where's when I was young,
And we didn't give a damn,
'Cause we were raised,
To see life as fun and take it if we can.
My mother, my mother,
She hold me, she hold me, when I was out there
My father, my father,
He liked me, oh he liked me.

Does anyone care?

Back when I was a teenager, I used to sit at the neighbourhood park or the reservoir with earphones plugged in, listening to this song..

I would watched passersby, admiring happy families having fun times together & enjoying the peaceful serenity alone..

I've always love this song. It never fails to cheer me up back in those days when my life (as a daughter) was pretty much of a sorrow kinda thing.. sigh.. Those were the days..

The Cranberries will be performing in Singapore this coming August 1st..

I guess watching live concerts would have to wait until kids get a little independently grown up..

Only then, will Baba & Ummi, go on live concert dates together.. =)

Insya'allah..
