Jose Mari Chan pic=28,223

Jose Mari Chan composed and sang many hit songs that made waves in Philippine music industry during the early 70s. He's best known for his "Jingle Style" music composition. I remember vividly this song "Refrain" as it was being played by FM DJs during rainy days in Manila many years ago. Most of his inspirational love songs are now considered timeless.

To Mr Jo Mari Chan, thank you very much for the music that now resides in our hearts.

God Bless You

Refrain
Jose Mari Chan
(words & music: Jose Mari Chan)



I look out and I see the rain
As it falls on my window pane
And the music that's in my heart
Is a sad refrain.

Endless traffic of sounds and sights
Midst the glitter of neon lights
Still the music that's in my heart
Is the same sad refrain.

Mem'ries of you follow everywhere I go
Down the high and by-ways of my days
Music of your laughter fills my every dream
Like a love song from long ago

Never ending streams of faces come and go
Million diff'rent people all around
No use searching for I'll never find you there
For you are far beyond compare.

La la la la la la la la...
La la la la la...
No use searching for I'll never,
No use searching for I'll never find you there
For you are far beyond compare.

Take a jet to a hideaway,
from the humdrum of everyday
Yet the music that's in my heart
Is a sad refrain.

Fluctuations in the market scene
Fill my Dow Jones with every beam
And the music that's in my heart
Is the same sad refrain.
