Hello everyone!!!
This is my second entry to hive open mic week #122# with the theme "emotions". I will be singing "Am I the only one" by Marc Anthony.
The song depicts a relationship that is experiencing a some loneliness maybe due to distance or a breakup. Here are the lyrics and the link to the lyrics as well;
Days have passed
And still no sign of us
Not a hint of what used to be
When you lived in that part of me
This blinding silence
Lives in every room
Of what once was a happy home
Now we're sitting here all alone
Could this be that it was all a lie
And we're just afraid to say good-bye
Am I the only one
Who sees what we've become
I see no sense in going on
Or asking what went wrong
We sit and stare at what could be
We both just grew apart you see
And through no fault of our own
It's our house but not a home
It's strange to know
There's truth in what I say
Baby, I know you feel the same
And the truth is
No one's to blame
Two lonely dreamers
Playing by the rules
All we thougth of
Was me and you
Now we're faced
With a simple truth
I'd love to say that this is all a lie
But that just means I'm scared to say good-bye
Am I the only one
Who sees what we've become
I see no sense in going on
Or asking what went wrong
We sit and stare at what could be
We both just grew apart you see
And through no fault of our own
It's our house but not a home
Could this be that it was all a lie
And we're just afraid to say good-bye
Am I the only one
Who sees what we've become
I see no sense in going on
Or asking what went wrong
We sit and stare at what could be
We both just grew apart you see
And through no fault of our own
It's our house but not a home
Days have passed and still no sign of us
Not a hint of what used to be
When you lived in that part of me.

The lover has waited days and weeks which turn into months to see if her lover or his lover could come back to fill up this emptiness but no trace of her. I feel so emotional as I sang the song, it reminds me of my uncle and grandma who had long gone without any hope of them coming back.
Thanks for watching my performance.
Till next time, bye!
