Is There Something

I was in my junior year in college when I firts heard this song. We were asked by our Professor to sing in class. My classmate, which happens to be my crush ;;), sang this song. I got curious with the lyrics of the song. It is a very emotional song if I may say so.

Whenever I would hear it now, I remember my junior year in college - my classmates, my classroom, my crush (hehe..) and my experiences in the university as I am a newbie...

Sometimes, whenever I feel confuse, or unsure about certain things in life, I would sing or hum this song. And somehow it makes me feel a little better and relieve. I can feel the message of the song - the uncertainty, unsureness, confusion and letting go.

Here's the lyrics, IS THERE SOMETHING, by Christopher Cross.

Lately I see clouds of sorrow in your eyes
Some deep sadness you can never quite disguise
Now I'm scared to ask what it's leading to
But I'm more afraid of not asking you

Is there something that you want to tell me
Is there something that I ought to know
Are we something that's still worth fighting for
Or should I simply let you go
Is there something I can do to reach you
Are we something more than history
I'll find some way to convince you to stay
If you just tell me honestly
Is there something left of you and me

You've got secrets you've been keeping for too long
And I'm going crazy acting like there's nothing wrong
I can taste the truth every time we kiss
And I can't go on
At least not like this

I don't want to lose you
But what's the use of holding on
I don't really have you
If the feeling's gone

Is there something I can do to reach you
Are we something more than history
If there's no way to convince you to stay
And be the way we used to be
Then there's something that I want to tell you
And I want you to believe it's true
We had something that I'll never forget
Even if I wanted to
'Cause part of me will always be with you
