Luha by Rivermaya

One reason I like listening to Rivermaya is that there's always an old song that I can suddenly relate to when I listen to their albums. Listening to it intently, you'll notice that the vocals are overdubbed, Bamboo and Rico, Rivermaya's greatest vocalist in duet with Nathan and Mark Escueta's tight rhythm section in the background. Some songs just don't get better than this.


Wag mo nang ipilit,
'wag mo nang piliting lumapit
Ako'y iyong limutin,
Baka pa ang langit magalit

Balikan mo ang dati,
Isipin kung saan ka nagkamali
Nar'yan ka pa ba
Nagluluksa sa dilim?

Ubos na ang luha

Bago na ang tinig,
Bago na ang ihip ng hangin
Ubos na ang luha
Sa langit at lupang atin

Alaala inaamag
Na sa isipan
Nar'yan ka pala,
Nagdurusa sa dilim

Ubos na ang luha,
Sa langit at lupa
