Based on the film, May Minamahal, the song is about a love you lose, one that makes you wish you're gone as well. The film could not be farther from the mood of the song. The film was a delightful romantic comedy but it does end in the death of the patriarch. This song is from the point of the view of the matriarch who spends the movie trying her best to keep afloat.
lyrics
what's the plan
now that you're gone
scattered around
like birds under the sun
flying under the radar
under the shadow
i found someone to love
just my luck that i lose it
right after it has
proven to be true
where are you
can you take me
can god let me
borrow you
where's the fun
like bullets from a gun
dream turned to a nightmare
coffin from a chair
pulled from right under me
i found someone to love
just my luck that i lose it
right after it has
proven to be true
where are you
can you take me
can god let me
borrow you
so what's next
what's next for us
there has to be a finish line
there has to be a happy ending
there has to be a happy ending
i found someone to love
just my luck that i lose it
right after it has
proven to be true
where are you
can you take me
can god let me
borrow you
