"You" Lyrics

You give me hope,

The strength, the will to keep on;

No one else can make me feel this way

And only you

Can bring out all the best I can do;

I believe you turn the tide

And make me feel real good inside.

You pushed me up

When I'm about to give up;

You're on my side when no one seems to listen

And if you go,

You know the tears can't help but show

You'll break this heart and tear it apart;

Then suddenly the madness starts

CHORUS:

It's your smile,

Your face, your lips that I miss,

Those sweet little eyes that stare at me

And make me say,

I'm with you through all the way.

'Cause it's you

Who fills the emptiness in me;

It changes ev'rything, you see,

When I know I've got you with me

You pushed me up

When I'm about to give up;

You're on my side when no one seems to listen

And if you go,

You know the tears can't help but show

You'll break this heart and tear it apart;

Then suddenly the madness starts

CHORUS:

It's your smile,

Your face, your lips that I miss,

Those sweet little eyes that stare at me

And make me say,

I'm with you through all the way.

'Cause it's you

Who fills the emptiness in me;

It changes ev'rything, you see,

When I know I've got you with me.

It's your smile,

Your face, your lips that I miss,

Those sweet little eyes that stare at me

And make me say,

I'm with you through all the way.

'Cause it's you

Who fills the emptiness in me;

It changes ev'rything, you see,

When I know I've got you with me.

"You" is a song of Basil Valdez on the year 1985.Basil Valdez is a Filipino singer born in November 8, 1951.She started his career as a folk singer.Then later on, focused on ballad songs in which some of the songs were composed by his friend and renowned composer Ryan Cayabyab. Mostly are religious songs which includes "Sambahin Ang Ngalan Mo","Ama Namin","Aba Ginoong Maria" and ""Kaibigan".


A personal decision made him quit him singing career when she had committed himself in becoming a "faith healer" in 1990.


I think this song is for all the Mothers. No words can ever describe how far they have sacrificed themselves just to take care of their children.The persona in this song describes how his mother builds her up to cope with this cruel word.A pushing force when needed,a listening friend to air her heartaches and certainly the one who can surely build her confidence enough.




A great thanks to all Mothers!!!
