Answer
Dear Raqs,

The first song is called IS IT OVER by RONNIE MILSAP from his 1983 album KEYED UP. The second is SOMEONE by EL DeBARGE from his 1986 self-titled solo debut album. The third is TELL ME THAT YOU LOVE ME by TERRI GIBBS from her 1980 album SOMEBODY'S KNOCKIN'.

And lasatly, here's the lyrics:

PLEASE DON'T STOP REMEMBERING / RANDY EDELMAN

I try over and over again
Keepin' on till the day when it ends
But there doesn't seem to be any answer left for me
I go over and over it all
Every detail I don't need recall
But there doesn't seem to be any answer left for me
Just the day and the night
And the thought of what we used to be.

Never knew a day could be so long
Never knew a love could be so wrong
Never guessed to find such joy could come as hurt
So I take to a road paved in green
I'll return when I wake from this dream
But the pain doesn't leave, the distance makes it grow
All I have are the ashes
One small spark from your glow.

Chorus 1:
(Oh) Please don't stop remembering
Even though I'm not there
My mind knows you've gone
But my heart doesn't care
Oh please don't stop remembering
Though time fades away
(But) The love still lives on
And your memories stay.

Now I live in a place by the sea
It took time that I set myself free
And I'm starting to feel that I'm not such a fool
Cause I know that I tested the ldge
I almost fell over the edge
But life is worth so much so I go home
With the day and the night
And the dream, I still got my song.
(Repeat Chorus 1)

Chorus 2:
(Oh) Please don't stop remembering
Even though I'm not there
My mind knows you've gone
But my heart doesn't care
And if by chance you see me
Well, I'll smile and say hi
You'd think I look fine
But I'm breakin' inside.
(Repeat 1st 4 lines of Chorus 2)

Coda:
Oh please don't stop remembering
Though years may go by
The love still lives on
And the memories fly.
(Repeat Chorus 2)

Maraming salamat po!!
