Parokya Ni Edgar: Pangarap Lang Kita Lyrics

Mabuti pa sa lotto.. 
May pag-asang manalo... 
Di tulad sayo..impossible... 
Prinsesa ka..ako'y dukha 
Sa TV lang naman kasi may mangyayari 
At kahit mahal kita...wala akong magagawa 
Tanggap ko 'to aking sinta.. 
Pangrap lang kita... 


Ang hirap maging babae 
Kung torpe iyong lalaki 
Kahit may gusto ka...di mo masabi 
Hinde ako iyong tipong nagbibigay motibo 
Conservative ako kaya di maaari 
At kahit mahal kita...Wala ako magagawa 
Tanggap ko 'to aking sinta, pangrap lang kita 


[ From: http://www.metrolyrics.com/pangarap-lang-kita-lyrics-parokya-ni-edgar.html ]

At kahit mahal kita, 
Wala ako magagawa 
Tanggap ko 'to aking sinta, pangrap lang kita 

(Happee's part) 
Suiran wo hen ai ni 
Wo mei fenfa gaosu ni 
Wo xin zhong yi you oh ~ qinai 
Danshi shi wo de ai 

(Chito and Happee's part) 
At kahit mahal kita (da ai ni) 
Wala akong magagawa (wo zhen de mei fanfa) 
Tanggap ko 'to aking sinta 
Pangrap lang kita
