I remember well the solitude

before there was a me and you.

Friendships ended up misunderstood.

Sometimes I would wake up scared,

the sound of silence in the air.

Mornings never came around too soon.

But nobody heard the songs when I was singing,

and no body felt the words that I was saying.


Until now

I went on wondering,

Until now

Where my path would lead,

   and I reach out for someone to believe.

   But no one heard me call,

  Until now.


Broken hearts and love affairs,

I don’t remember who or where.

You’ve given my life the love, a second chance.

If I ever stand on a concert stage with all the fortunes and the fame,

I’d only see your face out in the crowd.


Cause no body heard the song that I was singing.

And no body read the words that I was saying.

Until now

I went on wondering.

Until now

where my path would lead.


And I reach out for someone to believe.

But no one heard my song,

Until now.

I went on wondering, Until now

Where my path would lead.

And I reach out for someone to believe,

But no one heard me call,

Until now.


I went on wondering

Until now

Where my path would lead and I reach out for someone to believe,

But no one heard my song,

 

Until now.

Talk story about the top photo which I purchased from the person who took it to feature on our site. While spending an evening at  Karaoke with Danny and several others, I was approached by a gal with Many Photo Albums in hand. As I was introduced to her she told me she heard of my plan to do a website and would like to show me her collection. As I thumbed through the photos I came across the one at the top of this page (been there since 2001). (which I had seen before, on Aloha Joe's site) I mentioned this and it was as if electricity spawned her excitement. She did not know it had been featured, nor did she know who Aloha Joe was. After physically taking her to the website she became introduced to Hawaiian Music on the Net for the first time.
