Lyrics
Originally written on September 15, 2004 and compiled in My Book Project, “Kaya Naisulat ’to” captures the warmth of first love and the quiet inspiration it brings. A nostalgic OPM ballad told through heartfelt lyrics and soft acoustic textures, it reflects the simple yet profound moments that move us to write — when one person becomes the reason every song exists.

Verse 1
Malala ang tama,
pagbigyan ang nadarama.
’Di maiwasan sa bawat oras
na ika’y nakikita. (ohhh… ahhh…)
Malakas ang trip!
kinakarir ang pagsulat,
ng mga awiting ihahandog,
lahat ay para sa ’yo.
Chorus
Gumagaan ang pakiramdam,
lalo’t ikaw ang nasa isip.
(Gumagaan, gumagaan)
Bawat minutong nauubos,
’di namamalayan, lumilipas ang araw.
(ahhh… ohhh… araw… araw…)
Verse 2
Ganyan lang talaga,
kapag minsang nababato.
Sa bawat sandali ay napapatulala,
walang ibang iniisip kundi ikaw. (hmm-hmm, ohhh… ikaw…)
Buong araw ba nama’y
ikaw ang bukambibig.
Ikaw ang laman ng isip
tuwing naririnig ang tinig mo. (tinig mo… ohhh…)
Chorus
Gumagaan ang pakiramdam,
lalo’t ikaw ang nasa isip.
Bawat minutong nauubos,
’di namamalayan, lumilipas ang araw.
(ahhh… ahhh… ohhh… araw, araw…)
Bridge
Sa gabi’y ’di nakakatulog,
tugtugin ay ikaw ang alaala.
(alaala… la-la-la…)
Buong magdamag nakatitig,
sa kalawakang nagniningning.
(oohhh… shining, shining stars…)
Outro
Hindi ko na mahintay ang bukas,
ayoko ring matapos ang ngayon.
(hindi ko na… ayoko ring…)
Ikaw ang gabay, ikaw ang bituin,
sa bawat awitin, sa bawat damdamin.
(oohhh… ahhh… ikaw, ikaw… bituin…)
Fade out
(hmm-hmm-hmm… ohhh…)
