Way Back Into Love


Been singing (ok fine... humming!) this song the whole day. I have a copy of its mp3 that an officemate gave me several weeks ago. It's actually from the soundtrack of the film "Music and Lyrics" which I haven't watched yet, starring Drew Barrymore and Hugh Grant.

I find the song really cute, especially the demo version (featured in YouTube below) by Drew and Hugh. There's this more "arranged" version of it sung by Hugh and the other lead actress of the movie, Haley Bennett, but the natural feel of how the song below was arranged is so so cuter. I also have to learn how to play this in a guitar and piano soon. Can't wait to learn how to play it, really. I was already scouring the net for chords and riffs.

The lyrics is so romantic that it ticked the starry-eyed bozo in me. It practically said almost EVERYTHING I wanted to tell my ladylove.

The first time I heard the song, it clicked on me right away. It din't made me want to watch the movie but since then, I was always playing the music here in my workplace... most of the time while staring blankly outside the window beside me, 21 stories high to dreamy-landia... makes me want to fall in love with her several thousand times over to the nth power!

Ok, enough.


Way Back Into Love

I've been living with a shadow overhead
I've been sleeping with a cloud above my bed
I've been lonely for so long
Trapped in the past, I just can't seem to move on

I've been hiding all my hopes and dreams away
Just in case I ever need `em again someday
I've been setting aside time
To clear a little space in the corners of my mind

All I wanna do is find a way back into love
I can't make it through without a way back into love
Ohhhhh

I've been watching but the stars refuse to shine
I've been searching but I just don't see the signs
I know that it's out there
There's got to be something for my soul somewhere

I've been looking for someone to shed some light
Not somebody just to get me through the night
I could use some direction
And I'm open to your suggestions

All I wanna do is find a way back into love
I can't make it through without a way back into love
And if I open my heart again
I guess I'm hoping you'll be there for me in the end

There are moments when I don't know if it's real
Or if anybody feels the way I feel
I need inspiration
Not just another negotiation

All I wanna do is find a way back into love
I can't make it through without a way back into love
And if I open my heart to you
I'm hoping you'll show me what to do
And if you help me to start again
You know that I'll be there for you in the end

I wasn't able to see that movie. I was supposed to watch it in London, first week of Feb (or was it last week of Jan?) but I decided against it at the thought that it'd be on moviehouses here in Manila when I get home, but then to my surprise, di pa showing when I got back to Manila. V-Day pa pala. Eh yun. I had lotsa stuff to do after Vday kaya di ko napanood. (Shempre ngayong paguwi ko ng March wala na)
