Namumula Lyrics by Maki

Verse 1

Nababaliw na naman ako
Parang sirang nagpupuyat para sa’yo
‘Di ko na nagawa ang project ko
Pero ‘yung sa’yo at sa kapatid mo, ginagawa ko

Pre-Chorus

Kupido, seryosohin mo nga ako
Bakit lagi na lang sa tao na hindi handa?
O ‘di naman may mahal nang iba?

Chorus

Namumula
Sabi ng utak, “Tama na”
Ayaw paawat ng aking na-na-nadarama
Kahit na-na-na
Namumula
Sabi ng puso, “Kaya pa”
Hindi tumitigil kahit pula
Ikaw pa rin, sinta

Verse 2

Umiiyak na naman ako
(He-he-he, natatawa na ‘ko, gusto mo, Nhiko, ikaw?)
Pero sabi mo
(Friends nga lang kami, ba’t ba ayaw mong maniwala?)
Syempre, maniniwala ako sa’yo
(Ikaw na ‘yan, eh, hay)

Pre-Chorus

Kupido, seryosohin mo nga ako
Bakit lagi na lang sa tao na hindi handa?
O ‘di naman may mahal nang iba?

Chorus

Namumula
Sabi ng utak, “Tama na”
Ayaw paawat ng aking na-na-nadarama
Kahit na-na-na
Namumula
Sabi ng puso, “Kaya pa”
Hindi tumitigil kahit pula
Ikaw pa rin, sinta, oh

Bridge

Ikaw lang ang gusto (Ikaw lang ang gusto)
Kahit ‘di ako ang gusto mo (Kahit ‘di ako’ng gusto mo)
‘Eto na, ‘di na nga aasa
‘Di na mamumula sa maling tao
(Hello, sa’n ka?)
Shit (Ah)

Chorus

Sabi ng utak, “Tama na” (Tama na)
Ayaw paawat ng aking na-na-nadarama
Kahit na-na-na (Na-na-na-na)
Namumula
Sabi ng puso, “Kaya pa” (Ipipikit na lang aking mata)
Hindi tumitigil kahit pula (Tatakpan ko na lang aking tenga)
Ikaw pa rin, sinta

Outro

He-he, wow!

Namumula Lyrics by Maki ( In English )

I’m going crazy again
Like a broken soul staying up late for you
I didn’t get to do my project
But I’m doing yours and your sibling’s

Cupid, take me seriously
Why is it always someone who’s not ready?
Or someone who’s already in love with someone else?

Blushing
My mind says, “That’s enough”
But my feelings just won’t stop
Even though I-I-I’m
Blushing
My heart says, “I can still go on”
It doesn’t stop even when it turns red
It’s still you, my love

I’m crying again (hehehe, I’m laughing now, do you want it to be you, you?)
But you said, “You’re just friends” (we’re really just friends, why don’t you believe me?)
Of course, I’ll believe you (because it’s you, after all, sigh)

Cupid, take me seriously
Why is it always someone who’s not ready?
Or someone who’s already in love with someone else?

You’re the only one I want (you’re the only one I want)
Even if I’m not the one you want (even if I’m not the one you want)
Here it is, I won’t hope anymore
I won’t blush for the wrong person anymore
Hello? Where are you?
shit

My mind says, “That’s enough” (that’s enough)
But my feelings just won’t stop
Even though I-I-I’m (I-I-I’m)
Blushing
My heart says, “I can still go on”
It doesn’t stop even when it turns red
It’s still you, my love

Hehe, wow
