National Day 2008

I don't have much time to post but I'm glad the National Day theme song in 2002 had summed up my thoughts for you. The song is titled: We'll Get There. Written by Dick Lee (You'll remember him as the man who judged in Singapore Idol, he usually speaks first.)


We Will Get There
Music & Lyrics: Dick Lee

Sung by: Stefanie Sun
Remember the days, we set out together with faith?
Remember the times, so fine, when we thought that
Nothing could stand in our way?

Then things weren't the same, the life that we knew had to change
We've struggled through, the darkest storms
We thought we couldn't tame

Together we've tried, as we stood side by side
I knew we'd build a new world
A world of hope for ever after

Chorus:
Deep in my heart I just know
Right from the start, we will grow
Look where we are, we've come so far
And there's still a long, long way to go


With all of my heart, I will care
I'll play my part, I will share
With family and friends, together we'll stand
And in the end, hand in hand
We will get there


So now we begin, working together to win
Believing in trust, it must
Be possible to overcome anything

There's so much to do, there's so much we can contribute
By sharing just a little love
We will start again anew

So why don't we try? If we stand side by side
I know we'll build a new world
A world of hope for ever after


Happy National Day
....and I miss school. (Who is "school" by the way??)
....ok. I miss you, each one of you.
