Sining Lyrics By Dionela
Verse 1: Dionela
A flower’s not a flower until they bloom
Like my first time livin’ life the day I met you
Hate to think that humans have to die someday
A thousand years won’t do, ooh
Pre-Chorus: Dionela
No wonder I fell in love
Even though I’m scared to love
Baby, I know
The pain is unbearable (There’s no way)
Pinsala’y ikinamada
Mo binibining may salamangka
You’ve turned my limbics into a bouquet
Chorus: Dionela
Ikaw ay tila sining sa museong ‘di naluluma
Binibini kong ginto hanggang kaluluwa
Gonna keep you like a “nu couché”
All my life
At kung sa tingin mo na ang oras mo’y lumipas na
Ako’y patuloy na mararahuyo sa ganda
I’d still kiss you every single day
All my life
Verse 2: Jay R
If I could paint a perfect picture
Of the girl of my dreams with a curvy figure
Voice of an angel like a symphony
No doubt, she’s a masterpiece
No matter the color, you’re beautiful
You’re one of a kind like a miracle
Hindi ka papanaw hanggang huling araw
Maging kabilang buhay, ikaw ay ikaw
Pre-Chorus: Jay R
No wonder I fell in love
Even though I’m scared to love
Baby, I know
The pain is unbearable (There’s no way)
Pinsala’y ikinamada
Mo binibining may salamangka
You’ve turned my limbics into a bouquet (Oh, binibini)
Chorus: Jay R, Dionela, Jay R & Dionela
Ikaw ay tila sining sa museong ‘di naluluma
Binibini kong ginto hanggang kaluluwa
Gonna keep you like a “nu couché”
All my life
At kung sa tingin mo na ang oras mo’y lumipas na
Ako’y patuloy na mararahuyo sa ganda
I’d still kiss you every single day
All my life
Instrumental Break
Outro: Dionela
At sa pagdating ng huling araw, ‘wag mag-alala
Naramdama’y habang buhay nakamantsa
That the world will never take away
After life
