Because you loved me.
Today was a rather emotionally intense day, I would say. It was Baccalaureate Service for the class of 2009. It practically marked the end for the 2 years of JC life in ACJC especially. So many 'last's took place(some of them yesterday)...
the last time singing for morning ensemble - for real,
the last time going for assembly and trying to be punctual for it,
the last time we get dismissed from the hall to our first class venues,
the last time going for tutorials -whether we enjoyed them or not,
the last time attending lectures marked out on timetables,
the last time sitting with choir in the morning during assembly,
the last time walking from buona vista mrt to school in the morn and walking that road back after a day's lessons with great company,
the last time we had a sit-down-together time with ms Azlina in our base class venue...The service itself was meaningful and got me high instead of feeling down with all the song-singing by the student leaders. Following that, there was all the hustle and bustle of students strutting around school, giving gifts or taking photos for memory's keepsake... My class met at our base class for the very last time and waited for Ms Azlina to come meet us there. She finally came and got these bags filled with her love for the 24 of us. We then slotted in the pre-written notes for each special individual of 2SC6'09. I gave out my giant pocky sticks & heart chocs too. =)
As we later stood up, one by one, to share our thoughts of being in the class the 2 years, there were so many things that really touched my heart. Indeed, 2SC6 is a one special class that may superficially has split into a few cliques here and there. However, I'm sure deep down in everyone, we love each other much and believe in the strength and unity of this class. Deep down inside us, we believe our class is ONE still and that's more important than anyone else? Anyway, after saying my own share, as I heard so many of them speak, this song just popped up in my head. Strangely, it was just 2 days ago I heard it and yesterday, thought of it again. Then today, as it came up, I thought yes, that's the sentiments I have for the class.
Because You Loved Me (Cover by SNSD Taeyeon, SeoHyun) For all those times you stood by me For all the truth that you made me see For all the joy you brought to my life For all the wrong that you made right For every dream you made come true For all the love I found in you I'll be forever thankful baby You're the one who held me up Never let me fall You're the one who saw me through through it all You were my strength when I was weak You were my voice when I couldn't speak You were my eyes when I couldn't see You saw the best there was in me Lifted me up when I couldn't reach You gave me faith 'coz you believed I'm everything I am Because you loved me You gave me wings and made me fly You touched my hand I could touch the sky I lost my faith, you gave it back to me You said no star was out of reach You stood by me and I stood tall I had your love I had it all I'm grateful for each day you gave me Maybe I don't know that much But I know this much is true I was blessed because I was loved by you You were my strength when I was weak You were my voice when I couldn't speak You were my eyes when I couldn't see You saw the best there was in me Lifted me up when I couldn't reach You gave me faith 'coz you believed I'm everything I am Because you loved me You were always there for me The tender wind that carried me A light in the dark shining your love into my life You've been my inspiration Through the lies you were the truth My world is a better place because of you You were my strength when I was weak You were my voice when I couldn't speak You were my eyes when I couldn't see You saw the best there was in me Lifted me up when I couldn't reach You gave me faith 'coz you believed I'm everything I am Because you loved me I'm everything I am Because you loved meThank you SC6, thank you choir as well for teaching me to always seek to bless & not impress. Thank you for loving me. =D
