Love is good


Written by: Michael Cho
Performed at: Berkeley Home

Lyrics:

Baby baby
How ya feelin’
I’d get the curtain if the sun’s hurting your eyes

Baby baby
I love to call you my baby
I had a dream about you and me last night yeah

The dream was sweet oohh
The dream was good yeah
I had you under my skin for quite a while

Now I turn around
Found you here in my arms
Twisting and turning, fitting your body next to mine

“Oh the air is seething and the tension’s been building all night long
Can’t you feel, oh baby can’t you feel this escalating passion
Oh I need your full attention
‘Cos tonight is the night and the time is right, the tide is high
I’m gonna make everything alright”

Chorus:
Enjoy the ride/ Take your time
I’m ready when you’re ready
It’s synergetic, all-rhythmic, artistic display of our might
You and me,
The two of us together as the universe combined
Baby, the loving was good last night
Yeah the loving’s been good all night


Baby baby
Hope you like this melody
This one’s dedicated to my one and only

My heart’s pounding now
My palm’s sweating now
Your sensual body moving so gracefully

Oh your lips are so tempting and your eyes so seducing
I gotta say you’re the most beautiful thing
Oh the temperature is rising and my hormones are jumping
‘Cos tonight is the night and the time is right, the tide is high
I’m gonna make everything alright

Bridge:

Oh baby you’ve been so fine
I’m so glad that you’re all mine
This thing we’ve had all night
Let’s not make it stop, we will never stop
‘Cos tonight is the night and the time is right, the tide is high
I’m gonna make everything alright

Story in May


Written by: Michael Cho
Performed at: U-Michigan EECS Bash, Feb 05

Lyrics:

The clouds are reaping across
And floating beyond the bright blue sky
And receding and fading into a mellow white

The lights that are shining thro’
Are shaping my shadow
For which I know is my only company today

The trees behind me are shedding their leaves
As I shed my very own tears

And the wind is blowing and whispering
And telling me a story too old, too sad

I heard a new broken heart’s silent cry
And the wicked laughter of the thief who stole her pride
I smelled the scent of hope that love promises to bring
Yet you wouldn’t know till it’s all rotten up inside

And now my love for her
Is crushed beneath all the lies
In this story in May

My eyes are shot by the flash of light
That was meant to bring me home
And far away from the tormented times

My feet are too tired
They won’t carry me any further
On this road I’ve been traveling for too long

My mind’s too empty
My hands’ too filthy
They’re just reflections of what’s left behind

And it seems my life’s like a play
So badly written
In which I must play till I die

My days are numbered
As the curtain comes down
And I shall leave as silently as I’ve come

And it shall spell the end of this story in May

Dark Side of the Road


Written by: Michael Cho
Performed at: U-Michigan EECS Bash, Feb 05

Lyrics:

I’m standing here all alone
Standing on the dark side of the road
Streetlights twinkling before my foggy eyes
In a somewhat disillusion of hope
The past now seems so dead to me
The present now seems too bold
Well I ain’t looking forward to tomorrow
I’ve figured it out long time ago

As I gaze at the diamond sky
In the reminder of that fateful night
Yet the stars now shine a different glow
The shining just ain’t so bright
Well I ain’t putting any blame on anyone
I’ve come to learn that life’s full of these funny turns
Sweet memories fading into aches of scorn
And leaving you alone to burn

So what’s the fuss about all the givin’ and takin’
The way I see it, it’s a matter of disdain
It’ll show you the light but shatter your hope in the end
I open up my heart, end up bleeding endlessly

Sorrow’s the name given to me
From the cradle to the grave
Nothing in this world really amazes me
All the killin’ and fightin’ end in vain
Well friend don’t get me misunderstood here
I’m not saying you treated me unkind
And what kind of difference would it make
You and I are on the same boat anyway

We’re born with eyes that betray our own senses
Born with ears that can’t really hear
Bloody hands glorified in victories
Empty hearts cryin’ out in guilt and sins

So I’ll just go on with my lonesome stroll
Don’t worry about me, it’s not that cold
Against the wind I’ve got my feather coat
But it’s really the pain in here that chills my soul
Well I’ve more or less said what I wanted to
Done almost everything I ought to do
So would you even notice if I ever disappear
But then again, I’m on the dark side of the road
But then again, I’m on the dark side of the road

I'd be your boy


Title: I'd be your boy
Written by: Michael Cho
Performed at: Freight & Salvage, Oct 05

Lyrics:

I’d be your yellow when you feel so blue
I’d be your rainbow when it rains
I’d be the sun in your secret garden
I’d be your joy everyday of our lives

I’d be your prince in your magic kingdom
I’d be your pillow on your bed
I’d be your ice in the scorching summer
I’d be your everything

Well you’ve got me
And I’ve got you
That makes the most beautiful song
Cos this love
Is 10 years in the making
And I can’t wait for more

Chorus:
I’d be your boy for this chance of a lifetime
I’d be your boy everyday
I’d be your boy for this love’s overflowing
I’d be your boy everyday of our lives

I’d be the ring on your forth finger
I’d be your carrot cake
I’d be your song in your lonesome hours
I’d be your everything

I’d lay this kiss on your head
And I’d whisper in your ear
I’d hold you in my arms
And I’d sing this lullaby for you

For you…
