HOW CAN I NOT LOVE YOU (ANNA AND THE KING, 1999)



"Most people do not see the world as it is. They see it as they are."
- Anna Leonowens

A non-musical retelling of the 1950's classic The King & I, Anna And The King is the story of Anna Leonowens (Jodie Foster), an English schoolteacher who came to Siam and influences the lives that everything she meets including the stern King Mongkut of Siam played by Chow Yun-Fat. The theme was nominated in the Golden Globe for best original song.


HOW CAN I NOT LOVE YOU
sung by: Joy Enriquez

Cannot touch
Cannot hold
Cannot be together
Cannot love
Cannot kiss
Cannot love each other

Must be strong and we must let go
Cannot say what our hearts must know

How can I not love you
What do I tell my heart
When do I not want you
Here in my arms
How does one walks away
From all of the memories
How do I not miss you
When you are gone

Cannot trip
Cannot share sweet and tender moments
Cannot feel how we feel
Must pretend it's over
Must be brave and we must go on
Must not say
What we no longer long

How can I not love you
What do I tell my heart
When do I not want you
Here in my arms
How does one walks away
From all of the memories
How do I not miss you
When you are gone
How can I not love you

Must be brave and we must be strong
Cannot say what we no longer long
How can I not love you
What do I tell my heart
When do I not want you
Here in my arms
How does one walks away
From all of the memories
How do I not miss you
When you are gone

How can I not love you
When you are gone
