Chorus
Can I get your numbah
Baby girl I want you
We can have so much fun
I tak boleh tahan
Baby Girl I love you
Can I get your numbah
Baby gurl you need me
Go out jalan-jalan
I belanja you makan
I can make you happee
I think this time I did something right,
We’re on the phone all morning and night
I felt we known each other for years and girl
You make me feel all fuzzy inside
I feel alive, my heart flying free
Is this a dream someone come pinch me
I’m just relief I’m done, don’t have to search no more
You are the girl I plan to marry
So after 3 long years of dating
We start to plan our void deck wedding
You want gamelan plus kuda kepang,
You remind me to start job searching
This song I wrote, I hope you listening,
The classifieds I checked everything,
Interview after interview I go,
But Malay guys don’t speak no Mandarin
Go to Chorus
I know you want to start a family,
You see your friends apply HDB
I finally found a job, we gotta take it slow
Because right now I have no money
I’m working hard hey girl cant you see,
I work long hours with zero OT
My boss told me once if I plan to quit
He can replace me with cheaper FT
I gave you money that I just withdrew
To pay some bills that’s long overdue
I was not prepared, the next thing you said
“I had enough. I have to leave you.”
Don’t say that girl, you know its not right
I promise everything gonna be alright
You have to understand, this is Singapore
Listen girl, lets not fight tonite
Go to Chorus
So 5 years past I tried to let go,
But I’m still hurt, how deep, no one knows
My-friend-told me, you married this guy from work
He have cash, career, car and condo
Looking back, sometimes I do ponder
I kept the ink scribbled on paper
I cant believe how happee I was back then,
I cant believe I got your numbah
