Shooting Star

Posted on May 11, 2009 by Arman

When the night has come
And the sun has gone
My heart is glooming
As the dark is falling

But then you come as shooting star
Bringing light from somewhere far
To make the sky sparkling and bright
So I can smile and have good night

Dedicated to Esther, my shooting star, on her birthday
May all your wishes come true…

I love you…

    mosok ada yg meragukan expresi & penghayatan lagumu saat nyanyi, Man. Sayang ga ada video waktu kamu memenangi kejuaraan nyanyi nasional. Saat membawakan lagu Patih Gajahmada yang kamu sangat menjiwai peran sebagai si patih. Ga ada yg tau kalo Sipatih udah exist jauuuuuuuu sblm krispatih ;)

    Hepi Bersde, Esther… sisain cupcakes nya ya…
