I'm on the white coasts
everything is right
my heart is out of control
but beating perfectly in time
and as I lay here
on this bed outside
I only wish that I, wish that I
could stay - here
Bahay Kalipay
happiness over fear
I dream that I could wake here
what a beautiful place
I know I'll long for the taste
of pristine perfection
of overwhelming direction
the feeling of love and connection
waking to the sound of celebration
I found a place
on the island
Palawan
I found a place
