All Alone by Trish Thuy Trang

All alone find a way in your own dream
Looking at you I see the sorrow in your eyes
Here I am been searching for someone
To share my life and dreams
Side by side tenderly fly away with me
Take my hand tell me that your heart is free
Promise me that you'll never go away
You and I we'll build this love together
Forever we'll be as one
Hold me now and touch me now
I'm falling in love with you

*Chorus*
This is the time I wanna say I love you
This is the love I wanna last forever
This is the time to say my love is here to stay
I want forever and ever...you'll be mine
You and I we'll build this love together
Forever we'll be as one
Hold me now and touch me now
I'm falling in love with you

*Chorus* x2

The Chase by Trish Thuy Trang and Cardin lyrics

Why you gotta play it cool like that?I saw you there just looking at meMmm hmmYeah I'm talking to youYou put up a front but I see through you
You must be crazy for thinking like thatCaught you many times for staring at meUh huhYeah I'm talking to youWhy you gotta act like I'm a fool?
Round in the circle so many gamesSooner or later I'll have my way
CHORUSCut to the chase as I show it over and overYou wanna get closer to meAnd you know itSo why don't you just make your moveI got all of my love just waiting for you
All your boys have been telling meYou went and told them that you wanted meUh huhBaby that's a factSo tell me what are you gonna do about that?
Even your friends have been telling meYou went around and asked for meMmm hmmNow that I'm right hereSay what you needBaby I'm all ears
So tell me what are you running for?Give me a sign and then I'll be yours
Repeat Chorus 2X
Round in the circle so many gamesSooner or later I'll have my way
Rewind
Repeat Chorus 2X

Song Analysis #2

The Chase by Trish Thuy Trang and Cardin Nguyen
This song is between two young teenagers. It starts with a guy "talking" to a girl.
The first verse of this song is "Why you gotta play it cool like that? I saw you there just looking at me. Yeah I'm talkin to you. You put up a front but I see through you." This part of the song a guy is singing. This means that the why does she have to play it "cool" meaning "playing" it off like nothing is happening. The guy just happens to see that the girl is looking at the guy. He knows that the girl is looking at, she may think that he can't see her but she can't hide from him. It is too late to hide from him. The second verse of this song is "You must be crazy for thinking like that. Caught you so many times for staring at me. Yeah I'm talking to you. Why you gotta act like I'm a fool?" He thinks that she must be crazy for thinking the way that she does. He has caught her so many times that she has looked at him. Yes, he is talking to her. She is playing it off as though she doesn't hear what he is saying. He is asking as of why she has to act as though he is dumb, a fool. The third verse is "Round in circle so many games. Sooner of later I'll have my way." The two,the girl and the guy is playing it off as though nothing is occurring. The guy likes the girl and sooner or later the guy will get what he wants and what he wants is the girl. The chorus is "Cut to the chase as I show it over and over. You wanna get closer to me. Andyou know it. So why don't you just make your move. I got all of my love just waiting for you." This means that they should stop playing games and just cut to the chase. The guy knows that the girl likes him and the girl knows that the guy likes her but they both won't admit it to eachother. In a way the guy is being arrogant. He "knows" that the girl likes him but she won't admitit to him. He thinks that she should just tell him that she likes him. The guy has all the love thathe wants to offer to the girl. The third verse is sung by the girl. "All your boys have been telling me. You went and told them that you wanted me. Baby that's a fact. So tell me what are you gonna do about that." She is saying that all of his guy friends has as well told her that he likes her. She heard from his guy friends that he likes her. Yes, that is a fact. So what does he have to say now that sheknows that he likes her. The fifth verse is "Even your friends have been telling me. You went around and asked for me.Now that I'm right here. Say what you need. Baby I'm all ears." This means that she has been hearing from the guy's guy friends that the guy likes her. The guy has been going around and asked about the girl, asking what they think of the girl. Now that the girl is in front of him, he should say what he wants to say. She is listening to what he has to say. The sixth stanza is "So tell me what are you running for? Give me a sign and then I'll be yours." So the guy should tell the girl that he likes her. Both of them should come to their senses and get together. This relates to my genre because this is about two teenagers in love. They are both lookingfor love. My genre is Vietnamese-American Teenage Love. This song is in English but sung by two Vietnamese American singers. Their names are Trish Thuy Trang and Cardin Nguyen. They are both in their twenties and are two of the most popular young aged singers in the Vietnamese music industry.

Found Poem

There are ups and downs of a relationship.
Tell me what to do now.
I’ve been looking for someone just like you.
Sight of you makes me weak.
You’re too good to be true.
You’re like Heaven to touch.
You put up a front.
You play so many games.

Voulez Vous

people everywhere
sense of expectation hanging in the air
giving out a spark
across the room your eyes
are glowing in the dark

here we go again
you know the start you know the end
masters of the scene
we've done it all before
but we're back to get some more
you know what I mean...

voulez vous?
take it now or leave it
now is all you get
nothing promised no regrets
voulez vous?
ain't no big decision
you know what to do
la question cest voulez vous

voulez vous?

I know what you think
the girl means business
so I'll offer her a drink
feeling mighty proud
see you leave your table
pushing thru the crowd

I'm really glad you came
you know the rules you know the game
masters of the scene
we've done it all before
and now we're back to get some more
you know what I mean...

"By now you should know me better than that" meaning that the girl should know better than that. That he is willing to go back to the girl. "But no one can stop me now, it's like that" meaning that he is going to make his own decisions. There is no one that can stop him from doing what he wants to do. "When I walk away I will never turn back" meaning that once he leaves he will never come back. She may think that he is going to come back but he is not going to.
