I could not ask for more

by Edwin McCain

Lying here with you
Listening to the rain
Smiling just to see, the smile upon your face
And these are the moments I thank God that I’m alive
And these are the moments
I’ll remember all my life
I found all I’ve waited for
And I could not ask for more

Looking in your eyes
Seeing all I need
Everything you are, is everything to me

And these are the moments
I know heaven must exist
And these are the moments, I know all I need is this
I have all I’ve waited for (yeah)
And I could not ask for more…

I could not ask for more than this time together
I could not ask for more than this time with you
And every prayer has been answered
And every dream I’ve had has come true
yeah, right here in this moment, is right where I’m meant to be
Oh, here with you here with me…
Ooh, yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah

And these are the moments I thank God that I’m alive
and these are the moments I’ll remember all my life
I’ve got all I’ve waited for yeah
And I could not ask for more

I could not ask for more than this time together
I could not ask for more than this time with you
And every prayer has been answered
And every dream I’ve hads come true
yeah, and right here in this moment is right where I’m meant to be
here with you here with me…

I could not ask for more than the love you give me
‘Cuz it’s all I’ve waited for
And I could not ask for more (more)
ooh and I could not ask for more

This guy knows how it feels. All thanks in the world for everything.  I’ll always love you.

Home

They say that home is where the heart is. This is quite easy to understand. I may even say that home is being with your friends, family, and especially with the person you love. Now here’s the confusing part, what if your family and friends are in one place and the one you love is in another? In my case, this isn’t a “what if”. I’m home now, with my family, with some of my close friends, in Cebu, and I’m having the time of my life, but still I’m going out of my mind just thinking about how to go home to the one I love. It isn’t as simple as buying a plane ticket to get there. It isn’t as simple as having the right papers and the right amount of money in the bank. It isn’t simple convincing a trained veteran consul to give you a temporary gatepass. But then they say victory is sweeter when the odds are stacked against you. When the game is over, and I am left alone in the gym, I just hope that I’ll be able to come home.
