I know you're somewhere out there
Somewhere far away
I want you back
I want you back
My neighbors think
I'm crazy
But they don't understand
You're all I have
You're all I have
Chorus:
At night when the stars
light up my room
I sit by myself
Talking to the Moon
Trying to get to You
In hopes you're on
the other side
Talking to me too
Or am I a fool
who sits alone
Talking to the moon
I'm feeling like I'm famous
The talk of the town
They say
I've gone mad
Yeah
I've gone mad
But they don't know
what I know
Cause when the
sun goes down
someone's talking back
Yeah
They're talking back
Chorus:
At night when the stars
light up my room
I sit by myself
Talking to the Moon
Trying to get to You
In hopes you're on
the other side
Talking to me too
Or am I a fool
who sits alone
Talking to the moon
Ahh Ahh,
Ahh Ahh,
Do you ever hear me calling?
Cause every night
I'm talking to the moon
Still trying to get to you
In hopes you're on
the other side
Talking to me too
Or am I a fool
who sits alone
Talking to the moon
I know you're somewhere out there
Somewhere far away

(Everything I Do) I Do It For You lyrics Songwriters: Michael Kamen;Bryan Adams;R.j. 'mutt' Lange
Look into my eyes, you will see
What you mean to me
Search your heart, search your soul
And when you find me there
You'll search no more
Don't tell me, it's not worth tryin' for
You can't tell me, it's not worth dyin' for
You know it's true
Everything I do, I do it for you
Look into your heart, you will find
There's nothin' there to hide
Take me as I am, take my life
I would give it all, I would sacrifice
Don't tell me it's not worth fightin' for
I can't help it, there's nothin' I want more
You know it's true
Everything I do, I do it for you, oh yeah
There's no love, like your love
And no other could give more love
There's nowhere, unless you're there
All the time, all the way yeah
Look into your heart baby
Oh yeah
Oh, you can't tell me it's not worth tryin' for
I can't help it, there's nothin' I want more
Yeah I would fight for you

You know it's true
Everything I do, ohh, I do it for you

Addicted lyrics Songwriters: Taylor, Mark; Barry, Paul; Iglesias, Enrique;
Have I told you how good
It feels to be me
When I'm in you?
I can only stay clean
When you are around
Don't let me fall, oh no
If I close my eyes forever
Would it ease the pain?
Could I breathe again?
Maybe I'm addicted
I'm out of control
But you're the drug
That keeps me from dyin'
Maybe I'm a liar
But all I really know is
You're the only reason I'm tryin'
I am wasted away
I made a million mistakes
Am I too late? Oh yea
There is a storm in my head
It rains on my bed
When you are not here, oh
I'm not afraid of dying
But I am afraid of
Losin' you
Maybe I'm addicted
I'm out of control
But you're the drug
That keeps me from dyin'
Maybe I'm a liar
But all I really know is
You're the only reason I'm tryin'
When you're lyin' next to me
Love is goin' through to me
Oh it's beautiful
Oh yea
Everythin' is clear to me
'Till I hit reality
And I lose it all
I lose it all
I lose it all
(I lose it all)
You're the only reason
Yeah, you're the only reason I'm tryin'
(May be I'm addicted)
Oh, I'm tryin', I'm tryin', I'm tryin'
(May be I'm addicted)
Don't want to lose it all
Maybe I'm a liar
But all I really know
Is you're the only reason I'm tryin'
Yeah, you know I'm addicted
Yeah, you know I'm addicted
Yeah, you know I'm addicted
It feels to be me
When I'm in you?

Kinds of Love
During my short stint at the mother of all planets aka planet earth I have been fortunate to see a few kinds of love :) . Life is amusing, erratic and to top it up it is also culpable. On the other hand, love is heart-rending, plesant, cherished, loathed and also is a testimonial of personal feelings for another human beings/things/animals.
So coming back to the topic, let me help you idenify the kinds of love in your life:
* Puppy love-
o Sentence: “Awwww! I love the way he looks at me. My cutie pie”, exclaimed Anita at the mention of Manoj’s name by his friends.
o Nicknames: Angel, honey bun, babyface, blossom etc.
o Where can it be found? : Schools, colleges, offices…. I will be damned if you don’t find it EVERYWHERE.
o Condition of the affected parties: New love, infatuated, both are on cloud nine.
o Critic’s opinion- This is the real eye opener. You start believing in LOVE, you trust the person, you want to be with him ALL the time, it is break from the heavy-duty books, nagging friends and the allied.
o Suggestions for the couple: Make the most of it. If you are heart broken, this can be a refreshing break ;)
o Suggestions for the friends: Stay away, behave yourself and give them a break.
* Possessive Love-
*
o Sentence: “I heard you talked to Nakul. Why was he hugging you so tight? I have told you I don’t like it.”, screamed Manoj at Anita.
o Nicknames: Here nicks seem to vanish somehow.
o Where can be found: They are discreet. But when agitated, can be found anywhere.
o Condition of affected parties: The possessive is paranoid and the possessed is choaked. It can be an abusive relationship too.
o Critic’s opinion: Dear possessed, please run far far away. The possessor thinks you are his/her property. Try to maintain a distinct line in the relationship.
o Suggestions for the couple: Discuss, take couple therepy, seek help, don’t be oppressed, love is meant to be cherished- Keep it that way :)
o Suggestions to the friends: Any behaviour that you believe is NOT right, please point it out to the couple. Offer help, but do not fiddle with the topic, nor give wrong suggestions.
* Ex- Love-
o Sentence: “I checked her facebook status, she is happily married.”, Manoj reminded his friends after 3 years of their break up. Or “Anita is always my first love, no one can take her place.” said Manoj to Divya [the marriage prospect].
o Nicknames- Slangs mostly. But if someone else uses the words you use, the agitation is unbearable.
o Where can be found: Usually after drunk soujourns, the heart brokens texts, call, wail, create a scene etc.
o Condition of affected party: If the person who has moved on does not know about the other person, he/she lives happily ever after. In case they know, they are always worried about the consequence, turbulation the heart broken party may cause etc. The heart broken person is depressed, extrapolates evrythihng, may even scheme, hurt himself etc. There are normal cases too where the heart broken person refuses to move on, but does not hurt himself or others.
o Critic’s opinion: This is a critical condition. Usually the person is in denial. Even if he/she does not harm they are hurting really bad.
o Suggestion for the couple: Try to part on a good note. If it is not possible, keep your other better half well informed [in you can]. If even this is not possible, try talking to your ex and explain how important the new person is in your life and you would not want to hurt him/her.
o Suggestion to the friends: Please do not fuel the anger. Read the hurt pattern and nuances; try to remove the elements that increase the pain.
* Childhood sweethearts Love:
o Sentence: “Ever thine, ever mine, ever ours.”
o Nicknames: Usually people get comfortable with the names that are used over the years, it can be the names used during the puppy love.
o Where can be found: Happily settled in their lives even if not prefessionally then atleast with each other. They have come a long way, we all have such examples in our lives and all we can do is be happy for them.
o Condition of the affected parties: They are in harmony with each other. They understand the needs, wishes and hopes of the other person. Each has fine-tuned the other to make the journey of life a smooth ride.
o Critic’s opinion: Here even the critic shall wish for a love like this.
o Suggestion to the couple: Let the love flow and make it contagious :)
o Suggestion to the friends: Kuch seekho gadhon :P

Ghalib
Few of my fav Ghalib couplets:
Ragon mein daudte phirne ke hum nahi Qaayal, Jab aankh hi se naa tapkaa to phir lahoo kyaa hai
–
Chipak raha hai badan par lahoo se pairaahan hamaare jeb ko ab haajat-e-rafoo kya hai
–
aah ko chaahiye ik ‘umr asar hone tak, kaun jeeta hai teree zulf ke sar hone tak ?
–
ishq mujhko nahi, wehshat hi sahi, meri wehshat, teri shohrat hi sah
–
hazaaron khwahishain aisee ke har khwahish pe dam nikle, bohot nikle mere armaan lekin fir bhi kam nikle
–
kahaan maikhaane ka darwaaza ‘Ghalib’ aur kahaan waaiz, par itana jaante hain kal wo jaata tha ke ham nikle
–
ye na thi hamaari qismat ke wisaal-e-yaar hota, agar aur jeete rehte yahi intezaar hota
–
dil-e-naadaan tujhe huaa kya hai ? aakhir is dard ki dawa kya hai, hamko unse wafa ki hai ummeed, jo nahi jaante wafa kya hai
–
unke dekhe se jo aa jaati hai mooh par raunaq, wo samajhte hain ke beemaar ka haal achcha hai
–
humko maaloom hai jannat ki haqeeqat lekin, dil ko khush rakhne ko ‘ghalib’ ye khayaal achcha hai
–
hui muddat ke ‘ghalib’ mar gaya par yaad aata hai, wo har ek baat pe kehana, ke yoon hota toh kya hota?
–

IF.....
IF you can keep your head when all about you
Are losing theirs and blaming it on you,
If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you,
But make allowance for their doubting too;
If you can wait and not be tired by waiting,
Or being lied about, don't deal in lies,
Or being hated, don't give way to hating,
And yet don't look too good, nor talk too wise:
If you can dream - and not make dreams your master;
If you can think - and not make thoughts your aim;
If you can meet with Triumph and Disaster
And treat those two impostors just the same;
If you can bear to hear the truth you've spoken
Twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools,
Or watch the things you gave your life to, broken,
And stoop and build 'em up with worn-out tools:
If you can make one heap of all your winnings
And risk it on one turn of pitch-and-toss,
And lose, and start again at your beginnings
And never breathe a word about your loss;
If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew
To serve your turn long after they are gone,
And so hold on when there is nothing in you
Except the Will which says to them: 'Hold on!'
If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue,
' Or walk with Kings - nor lose the common touch,
if neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you,
If all men count with you, but none too much;
If you can fill the unforgiving minute
With sixty seconds' worth of distance run,
Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it,
And - which is more - you'll be a Man, my son!

Chaha tha jise woh mila hi nahin
chaha tha jise woh mila hi nahin
lakh koshish ki lekin yeh fasla mitta hi nahin
khuda se jholi phela k manga tha usse
khuda ne meri kissi dua ko suna hi hani
her ek se pocha terey na milney ka sabab
her ek ne bataya woh terey liye bana hi nahin
kitni shidat se chaha tha aur woh kissi aur ka ho gaya
shayad is jahan mein wafa ka silla hi nahin
merey humnasheen merey hum nawan yeh dua hai koi gila nahin
tujhe zindagi mein woh sukon miley jo mujhe kabhi mila hi nahin
lakh koshish ki lekin yeh fasla mitta hi nahin
khuda se jholi phela k manga tha usse
khuda ne meri kissi dua ko suna hi hani
her ek se pocha terey na milney ka sabab
her ek ne bataya woh terey liye bana hi nahin
kitni shidat se chaha tha aur woh kissi aur ka ho gaya
shayad is jahan mein wafa ka silla hi nahin
merey humnasheen merey hum nawan yeh dua hai koi gila nahin
tujhe zindagi mein woh sukon miley jo mujhe kabhi mila hi nahin
