It’s Up To You

It’s Up To You Lyrics
Artist :Barbra Streisand

You can say what you got to say
Wherever you go, baby
I will find a way
I’m ready to go anywhere you choose
It’s up to you
You decide if I live or die
Wherever you go, baby
So will I
I’m ready to accept your point of view
It’s up to you
And there’s something about that way
You smile
Every touch leaves me helpless
Every moment drives me wild
I never saw the cause that made
You lie
I never said goodbye…inside
You can go where you got to go
Wherever you lead, baby
I will follow
I’m ready to be all you want me to
It’s up to you
And I walk in the dark and the
Candle burns
Out of place, your face is missing
Come the day that you return
My love on hold
This moment stops in time
The reason and the rhyme
Inside
You can go where you got to go
Where you lead, baby
I will follow
I’m ready to be all you want me to
It’s up to you

Here is something to fight this growing alien feeling within me.

The lyrics above depicts perfectly how foolish “a woman in love” can be. Love is an act; something like that. It is not a feeling. M Scott Peck says this. Love as in feelings is only illusory. Love is something to act upon. It is not a feeling that engulfes you, overwhelms you till you get suffocated in surrender and submission. Cheee wah !! Plasapah baru.

Over the years Barbra Streisand has gotten worse from bad in the lesson on love. See how helpless and confused she was in the song below.

BARBARA STREISAND
WOMAN IN LOVE – lyrics

Life is a moment in space, when the dream is gone it’s a lonelier place
I kiss the morning goodbye, but down inside you know we never know why

The road is narrow and long, when eyes meet eyes and the feeling is strong
I turn away from the wall, I stumble and fall but I give you it all

I am a woman in love
And I’d do anything
To get you into my world
And hold you within
It’s a right I defend
Over and over again
What do I do

With you eternally mine, in love there is no measure of time
We planned it all at the start, that you and I live in each other’s hearts
We may be oceans away, you feel my love, I hear what you say
No truth is ever a lie, I stumble and fall, but I give you it all

I am a woman in love
And I’d do anything
To get you into my world
And hold you within
It’s a right I defend
Over and over again
What do I do

I am a woman in love
And I’m talking to you
I know how you feel
What a woman can do
It’s a right I defend over and over again

I am a woman in love
And I’d do anything
To get you into my world
And hold you within
It’s a right I defend
Over and over again
What do I do

    Hi Cikgu,

    Thanks for commenting. Am glad that I could extract this out of you he he.. Some kind of admission.

    They say it is better to have loved and lost, than never to have loved at all. Something like that.

    Quite contrary to what I posted there, I also believe that there are tonnes of psycholanalytical logics/wisdom/explanation/justification packed in those simple lyrics. I may never have the opportunity to experience, be hurt and thus learn get wiser. Ha ha ..

    And who knows we both will togethergether rewrite some principles on this topic. Hmm.. ambitious of me.

    I have read you new post. Will go and comment in the afternoon.

    Masa I kat sekolah dulu I tak pernah manja-manja dan mengada-mengada dengan cikgu-cikgu. Having you here is like having a Teacher I never had before…

    Hurt?

    I wallowed in it … drank it, ate it, slept it … sank deeper and deeper … thought I could never get out of the deep until …

    a caring soul … himself with lots of dark baggages … taught me about doing good for goodness sake not for the pahala …

    slowly, painstakingly, helped me nursed the dying ember … lend me a hand in finding my articulation …

    here I am

    patah sayap bertongkat kuku
    patah kuku bertongkat dagu
    selagi jantung berdegup
    sehingga mata tertutup …

    hehehe!

    ok! I am all yours .. tak yah kongsi with the rest of the class …
    meh nak cek ..kuku dah potong ke lom?

    Lesson #1

    What you never have, you never miss.
