I'll Move On


Was at a friend's place recently for dinner and was introduced to this album sung by local sweet (just see the cover :) crooner - Olivia Ong.

A wonderful album. Instantly loved it. I've always loved Jazz. Olivia brings a new style and flavour to her renditions. Along with her, my other all time favs are Steve Tyrell, Harry Connick Jr., Diana Krall and Lisa Ono.

"I'll Move On" in particular was so relevant. The lyrics spoke straight to my heart and I've decided to shared it with all of you. Try to get the album if you can.

I'll Move On

This road that I'm taking twists and turns
My life my chance turning dreams into reality.
Down this path faced with so many things
Sometimes I feel like giving up and turn away

Can't seem to go on
And I've been thru' this before
Now where am I?
Where do I stand?
A little lost here.
But I'll remember.
All those times you've bought me thru'.
I'd be a fool to give up cos' the goal is near

I'll move on I'll go on.
Lord I will take your hand.
And you will guide me along.
Survive thru' this storm.
So I say, come what may.
I'll hold on to my hope.
Yes, I will walk down this road.
And my passion drive will lead me on

Here I am Once again caught in the rain.
Looking back I've come so far And I want to carry on
Take a step at time
It's alright.
Even thru' this rain, I want to smile again

Don't hold back now.
And i've been thru' this before.
Now where am I?
Where do I stand?
A little lost here.
But I'll remember.
All those times you've bought me thru'.
I can feel the sun shining down on me

Here I am, Here I am.
Lord I will take your hand.
And you will guide me along.
Survive thru' this storm.
So I say, come what may.
I'll hold on to my hope.
Yes, I will walk down this road.
And my passion drive will lead me on.
