May Helmet Ka Pa Ba?

We've been playing 90s songs (a playlist from my phone) at the office this week. The beat is so distinct but at times when you listen to it, you're more into dancing than really knowing what the song really means. And yes, The Sign by Ace of Base is soooooooooo 90's but it's only now that I got to really listen to the lyrics. It's a song for those who finally realized that an ex-lover/lover is not worth loving at all (para sa mga natanggal na ang helmet haha). Good good good song I should say. This deserves to have a good cover version. Well, I saw this video on YouTube, it would be better if this will be officially recorded. This is a cover by Nice Peter. Thank heavens for giving me the sign I needed! =P

I got a new life
You would hardly recognize me
I’m so glad
How can a person like me care for you

Why do I bother
When you’re not the one for me
Is enough enough

I saw the sign and it opened up my eyes
I saw the sign
Life is demanding without understanding

I saw the sign and it opened up my eyes
I saw the sign
No one’s gonna drag you up
To get into the light where you belong
But where do you belong?

Under the pale moon
For so many years I’ve wondered
Who you are
How can a person like you bring me joy

Under the pale moon
Where I see a lot of stars
Is enough enough

I saw the sign and it opened up my eyes
I saw the sign
Life is demanding without understanding

I saw the sign and it opened up my eyes
I saw the sign
No one’s gonna drag you up
To get into the light where you belong
But where do you belong?

I saw the sign and it opened up my mind
And I am happy now
Living without you
I’ve left you all alone

I saw the sign and it opened up my eyes
I saw the sign
No one’s gonna drag you up
To get into the light where you belong
I saw the sign and it opened up my eyes
I saw the sign
