I began writing the song when my girlfriend and I were going through a rough time but my co-writer Niko Mangahas did most of the parts after the chorus
The Not-So-Talented yet Extremely Kool JC!! Filipino guitarist for the band Greeend, Solo artist, Singer/Songwriter for Good Morning Estrela.
Story behind the song
translation:
i really wish we hadn't crossed paths
in the streets of love, i didn't mean to
it's just that destiny ordered me to meet you
and i need to drown in your kiss,
dying with each moment that you're not here
but i won't bother kneeling down anymore
your heart needs to find it's way back to
me on its own, will it come back?
burning! growing numb from the pain
of your rejection
are you a curse, why can't my thoughts break
free, from my longing for the soft touch of your
hand, are you being chased by your past?
is it such a sin to love you this way
oh i don't want to be pious any longer
but i won't bother kneeling down anymore
your heart needs to find it's way back to
me on its own, will it come back?
burning! growing numb from the pain
of your rejection
Lyrics
sana ay di nalang tayo nagsalubong ng daan
sa kalye ng pagibig hindi naman sinasadya
nautusan lang po ako ng tadhana
kailangan ko ang malunod sa iyong halik
namamatay bawat saglit na wala ka
pero di na ako luluhod
kailangan ay ang puso mo ang kusang
bumalik, o babalik ba?
sunog! namamanhid sa sakit ng
iyong hindi
ikaw ba ay isang sumpa bat di makalaya
ang isip ko sa pananabik sa daplis ng yong
kamay hinahabol ka pa ba ng kahapon mo?
kasalanan po bang mahalin ka ng ganito
oh ayoko nang maging banal
di na ako luluhod
kailangan ay ang puso mo ang kusang
bumalik, o babalik ba?
sunog! namamanhid sa sakit ng
iyong hindi
