IRIS

And I'd give up forever to touch you
'cause I know that you feel me somehow
You're the closest to heaven that i'll ever be
And I don't want to go home right now.

And all I can taste is this moment
And all I can breathe is your life
'cause sooner or later its over
I just don't want to miss you tonight...

I was moved by this song even before i got the chance to watch the 1998 movie "City of Angels" (with Nicolas Cage and Meg Ryan). And after watching the movie, i became more attached to the song that everytime i hear it, i can't help but think as to how far would a man go to pursue the love of his life. In the movie, the angel Seth decided to "fall from grace" to be with his love, the heart surgeon Maggie. Would someone be that "foolish" to give up everything for love? And that was inspiring...

My love for this song never faded. And just this year, something beautiful happened. This song brought me closer to someone, someone i haven't met but fell in love with. We talk a lot, exchange ideas, share views and emotions. We just can't meet yet, but i know we will soon. And i'm thinking, would i give up forever just to see her, just to be with her? Would I be able to touch her hand or even be given the chance to see her smile? i dont know, i really don't know, but i might, who knows.

And the song keeps on playing in my mind.... and i am happy...
