All Rights Reserved, National Library Board, Singapore All Rights Reserved, National Library Board, Singapore All Rights Reserved, National Library Board, Singapore The songs are recorded, the photos are taken, the layout is almost complete, except for this last bit, my inaugural thank you speech, for my very first album. As I write this from above the clouds, these words are, as cheesy as it sounds, from the heart.

I would like to thank:

My loving and supportive Mama and Papa, for being my number 1 fans, my cute sister Kexin for the best advice always, my family, my pillars Alfred, Ein Ein, Juan, Kitty and the rest of ZPGY for the comfort zone that has been created with love and friendship.

Some people who led me down this path of music, that I am always thankful for: my mentors Kheng Long and Ting Ting, David Tao, Wang Leehom, David Tan, Billy Koh, Ken Chang.

The musical expertise behind this album: Hanjin Tan and Timothy from The Invisible Men, who is extremely talented and even more patient in communicating ideas, and Tat Tong from T2 Productions, an old friend and incredible musician that I had the pleasure of co-writing with in this album.

To Monica, Dolphin, Juey Huey and Comb for my sartorial revolution, and girl-to-woman transformation!

Lastly and most importantly, the S2S family: Matt for his trust and belief in me; Dean for his utmost patience with me, and commitment to making this album the best it could be; Fabian, Kristen and Lilin for going out of their way to support me.

And my late boss Ken Suzuki, whom I had the good fortune to know, but not the privilege to get to know better. This album is dedicated to him and his family, my kind and strong bosstress Malou, and their children Yuka and Tomo.

With love and gratitude, Tay Kewei

All Rights Reserved, National Library Board, Singapore SO IN LOVE 就是在今 天 陽光和藍 天 一 瞬 間 煩惱好遙遠 像電影 上演 忽然間發現 音樂響起 照 亮整個房間

你手 中的 驚喜 讓 我 忘 了呼吸 問 題 已經 感應 迫不 及待想答應你

So in love We are so in love 你在最 完 美這 一 刻 感 動 了 我 Cuz we're so in love Can't control this love 決定從 此 刻跟隨著你給的 快樂結 局 Baby 現在 我 說 I do…

浪 漫的 宣 言 點綴著永遠 頭 一點 絕對不 再改 變 每 一 句 誓言 讓人好依戀 情不自 禁 又想起那 畫 面

All Rights Reserved, National Library Board, Singapore .:

可 不 可以 (THIS TOO SHALL PASS)

我 看起來很好 不 需 要依靠 請別 來打擾 愛 在身邊圍繞 我接收不 到 暫時 不 敢 面 對心裹 空 虛的 一 角

可不 可 以 可不 可 以 可不 可 以 不勇 敢 能 不 能 停止 對愛渴望 可不 可 以 痛 哭 一 場 風雨 過後 會看 見 曙光 This too shall pass 我 堅持這 希 望

雨 淋濕 了 眼眶 悲傷中要 堅 強 是考驗 是成長 風 吹散 了 偽 裝 只 剩 下 迷惘 雷 電交響 放大 了 一個 人的 孤單

終於發現 抵抗會更難 內 心的 呼喚不該 隱藏 所 以擁抱影子 轉身背向陽光 沈淪一分鐘的 絕望 卻 還 堅信 This too shall pass

All Rights Reserved, National Library Board, Singapore CATCH ME I FALLING

I don't know why but when I look in your eyes Catch me I'm falling for you I feel something that seems so right And I don't know what to do You've got yours I've got mine I think I'm losing my mind How can something so wrong? 'Cause I shouldn't feel this way Feel so right all along Catch me I'm falling for you Catch me I'm falling for you How can time be so wrong And I don't know what to do For love to come along? Catch me I'm falling you How can something so wrong Maybe someday I'll see Feel so right all along? Why love did this to me Catch me I'm falling for you 'Cause I can't go along pretending How can time be so wrong That love Isn't here to stay For love to come along? Catch me I'm falling for you Catch me I'm falling for you How can love let it go Catch me I'm falling for you... When it has no place to go And I can't go along pretending And it's wrong for me to feel this way That love isn't here to stay Coz I don't know what to do without you Catch me I'm falling for you ooh ooh I'm falling for you Catch me I'm falling for you If I could just walk away Without you from day to day How can something so wrong? I would die just thinking of you Feel so right all along I know we can never be more than friends you and me Catch me I'm falling for you But why do I feel this way

All Rights Reserved, National Library Board, Singapore CRAZY LOVE

I can hear his heart beat for a thousand miles And the heavens open every time he smiles And when I come to he that's where I belong Yet I'm running to her like a river's song

He give me love, love, love, love, crazy love He give me love, love, love, love, crazy love

He's got a fine sense of humor when I'm feeling low down And when I come to her when the sun goes down Take away my trouble, take away my grief Take away my heartache, in the night like a thief

Yes I need him in the daytime Yes I need him in the night Yes I want to throw my arms around him Kiss him hug him kiss him hug her tight

And when I'm returning from so far away He gives me some sweet lovin' brighten up my day Yes it makes me righteous, yes it makes me feel whole Yes it makes me mellow down in to my soul

All Rights Reserved, National Library Board, Singapore WHERE DO I BEGIN (LOVE STORY)

Where do I begin? To tell the story of how great a love can be The sweet love story that is older than the sea The simple truth about the love he brings to me Where do I start?

Like a summer rain That cools the pavement with a patent leather shine He came into my life and made the living fine And gave a meaning to this empty world of mine He fills my heart

He fills my heart with very special things With angels' songs, with wild imaginings He fills my soul with so much love That anywhere I go, I'm never lonely With him along, who could be lonely I reach for his hand, it's always there

How long does it last? Can love be measured by the hours in a day? I have no answers now, but this much I can say I'm going to need him till the stars all burn away And he'll be there

All Rights Reserved, National Library Board, Singapore SUPERMAN (IT'S NOT EASY)

I can't stand to fly Up up and away away from me I'm not that naive Well it's all right I'm just out to find You can all sleep sound tonight The better part of me I'm not crazy or anything

I'm more than a bird I can't stand to fly I'm more than a plane I'm not that naive I'm more than some pretty face Men weren't meant to ride Beside a train With clouds between their knees And it's not easy to be me I'm only a man in a silly red sheet I wish that I could cry Digging for kryptonite on this one way street Fall upon my knees Only a man in a funny red sheet Find a way to lie Looking for special things inside of me About a home I'll never see Inside of me, inside of me, yeah It may sound absurd but don't be naive Inside of me, inside of me Even heroes have the right to bleed I may be disturbed but won't you concede I'm only a man in a funny red sheet Even heroes have the right to dream? I'm only a man looking for a dream And it's not easy to be me I'm only a man in a funny red sheet And it's not easy, it's not easy to be me

All Rights Reserved, National Library Board, Singapore PLASTIC MANNEQUIN LOVE SAY WHAT YOU WANT

I'm writing a song for the universe Twenty seconds on the back time I'm sending it out to space I feel you're on the run If there was a boy who could hear my thoughts Never lived too long to make right Across the street in the window display I see you're doing fine

I'm writing a song for the universe And when I get that feeling To rescue me someday I can no longer slide I never had the chance to tell my love I can no longer run ah no no I loved him since that suit in grey And when I get that feeling I can no longer hide I'm sailing, sailing For it's no longer fun ah no no In this great pacific garbage patch My love for you is forever Well, you can say what you want Nothing will break me down But it won't change my mind I'm sailing, sailing I'll feel the same about you You are nowhere to be found And you can tell me your reasons I believe one day you'll join me But it won't change my feelings And we'll sail round and round, round and round I'll feel the same about you

I'm singing this song for our planet earth What I am is what you want of me Where green and blue collide Yeh, now that I'm not there But the jungles are concrete and the sea's disguised I took the tables away from you By all the stuff that got us by It's turned that I don't care

I'm singing this song for our planet earth I've said goodnight To keep in sight and keep in mind Try to sleep tight The trash that you owned, that you just threw out Ah just dream of me Is still here singing out loud Go close your eyes Cause I've closed mine Oh is that you I see The sun will shine from time to time Illusions they keep haunting me oh tragedy Oh, when you dream of me, yeh

All Rights Reserved, National Library Board, Singapore COME CLOSER

Come closer to me now baby I know you want me now You know that you want me so bad You can hesitate, take your time You're head over heels in love with me now But you're the one who'll be alone tonight I can tell from the way that you stare I can be your dream come true Maybe so- Don't just think you'll get me sitting there You gotta come up to me and say hello I know you know what I'm saying I'm really friendly now don't be so scared I know you dig my style You never know you never know till you try I have already taught you how Boy you've got no excuses now Do you know what I'm saying Do you want some more of me Do you know dig my style I know you can't enough of me Do you need me to teach you how Come closer to me now baby I'm sure it's what you've been dreaming about Come closer to me now baby Do you want some more of me Come closer to me I know you can't get enough of me Come closer to me Come closer to me now baby Come closer to me now baby Come close come close now Come closer to me I know you want me now Come closer to me

Don't just slip away silently You're missing out you know Just cuz you don't know what to say to me Just take a deep breath Buy me a drink, iced tea, butterscotch or baileys Something sweet, just a treat And you're one step closer to me

All Rights Reserved, National Library Board, Singapore All Rights Reserved, National Library Board, Singapore SOMEBODY

I want somebody to share I want somebody who cares Share the rest of my life For me passionately Share my innermost thoughts With every thought Know my intimate details With every breath Someone who'll stand by my side Someone who'll help me see things And give me support In a different light And in return All the things I detest He'll get my support I will almost like He will listen to me I don't want to be tied When I want to speak To anyone's strings About the world we live in I'm carefully trying to steer clear of And life in general Those things Though my views may be wrong But when I'm asleep They may even be perverted I want somebody He'll hear me out Who will put their arms around me And won't easily be converted And kiss me tenderly To my way of thinking Though things like this In fact she'll often disagree Make me sick But at the end of it all In a case like this He will understand me I'll get away with it And I.... And in a place like this I'll get away with it And I.... I want somebody
