Piolo Pascual Lyrics - Panaginip Lamang

Ikaw ay dumating bigla sa 'king mundo
Hindi inaakalang ngitian mo ako
Para akong natunaw sa lambing nito
'Di ka na maalis sa isip ko

Paano na ngayon ako'y litong-lito
Bakit kaya ako nahulog na sa 'yo
Pero mayro'n ka nang ibang minamahal
Hindi naman mahati ang puso

Kaya pag-ibig pinipigilan ko
Pag-ibig na sana ay sa 'yo
'Di bat nararapat sayo pag-ibig na buong-buo
'Di ko makakayang may saktan na iba
Kaya ikaw ay mananatili na lang
Sa damdamin at aking isipan
Iguguhit kita sa alaala
Pagkat tayo ay hanggang panaginip lamang

Paano na ngayon ako'y litong-lito
Bakit kaya ako nahulog na sa 'yo
Pero mayro'n ka nang ibang minamahal
Hindi naman mahati ang puso

Kaya pag-ibig piipigilan ko
Pag-ibig na sana ay sa 'yo
'Di bat nararapat sayo pag-ibig na buong-buo
'Di ko makakayang may saktan na iba
Kaya ikaw ay mananatili na lang
Sa damdamin at aking isipan
Iguguhit kita sa alaala
'Pagkat TAYO AY HANGGANG PANAGINIP LAMANG...

"Maria Mercedes" is a Mexican telenovela starring Thalia, the same actress who played "Marirmar" and "Maria la del Barrio". Rumors has it that Piolo Pascual will play as Maria Mercedes' love interest, who will be played by none other than Angel Locsin.

If this soap pushes through with Piolo Pascual as the leading man, this will be Piolo and Angel's second team up in a soap opera after the very successful "Lobo". "Lobo" topped the July Nutam Ratings. It is hoped that Maria Mercedes will duplicate the success Lobo enjoyed.

Maria Mercedes will star Edu Manzano, Cherie Gil, Nancy Castillogne, and Nina Jose among others. This new soap is expected to be aired in 2009.

Piolo Pascual's New Indie Film, "Manila"

After convincing his handlers to do an indie film, Piolo Pascual is excited with his new but highly unglamorous role in "Manila". This one's a story of druggie rocker who also works as a bodyguard. Piolo's role is a poor drug addict who lives in the slums of Manila.

This new movie is very far from Piolo's matinee idol roles. The setting is dark and his character is shady so expect to see a very different Piolo Pascual. "Manila" is a remake of movie classics "Jaguar" by Lino Broca and "Manila By Night" by Ishmael Bernal.

Piolo will star with Baron Geisler and Alessandra de Rossi in this movie. The movie is written by Raya Martin and Adolf Alix. Piolo Pascual is a co-producer of the movie.

Piolo Pascual - Paano Kita Iibigin Lyrics

Paano ang buhay kong ito?
Ngayong tayo ay magkalayo.
Hindi pa ba sapat, ang aking pag-ibig?
Di ba’t nag sumpaan tayo?

Sino’t ano ang hinahanap mo?
Bakit nagkukubli’t nagtatago?
Ang tunay mong hangarin, ba’t di sabihin sa’kin
Mahirap ba akong mahalin?

Paano kita, iibigin?
Kung di mo ibibigay ang puso mo sa akin
Ano ang pumipigil sa damdamin at sa puso mo?
Maghihintay ako sabihin mong mahal mo na ako.

Paano kita ... iibigin?
(Paano ang buhay kong ito?)
Kung di mo ibibigay ang puso mo sa akin
(Ngayong tayo ay magkalayo)
Ano ang pumipigil sa damdamin at sa puso mo?
(Hindi pa ba sapat... ang aking pag-ibig?)
Maghihintay ako sabihin mong mahal mo na ako.
(’diba’t nag sumpaan tayo?)

Di ko matitiis ang malayo ka
Kung kailan ako nagmahal... mawawala pa
(mawawala pa...)

Paano kita ... iibigin?
(Paano ang buhay kong ito?)
Kung di mo ibibigay ang puso mo sa akin
(Ngayong tayo ay magkalayo)
Ano ang pumipigil sa damdamin at sa puso mo?
(Hindi pa ba sapat... ang aking pag-ibig?)
Maghihintay ako sabihin mong mahal mo na ako.
(’diba’t nag sumpaan tayo?)

Paano kita, iibigin?
Kung di mo ibibigay ang puso mo sa akin
Ano ang pumipigil sa damdamin at sa puso mo?
Maghihintay ako.. (maghihintay ako) na sabihin mong mahal mo rin ako.
