The lyrics of the song speak of the anticipation of a lovestruck suitor: </p><p>“Wala na akong nagagawa &#x27;pag kaharap ka na<br/>Sana lahat kayang sabihin ito<br/>Nang hindi natatakot sayo<br/>Handa naman akong masaktan<br/>Pero di kasi ako sigurado<br/>Kung gusto pa &#x27;tong mawala<br/>Parang nahulog na rin ata<br/>Handa kong ibigay ang puso ko… &quot;</p><figure class="op-interactive"><iframe height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/BdZegTipksw?enablejsapi=1" width="560"></iframe></figure><div class="iwantbar">Watch more in <a href="//www.iwantv.com.ph/">iWantv</a> or <a href="//tfc.tv/">TFC.tv</a>  <em> Islands Records, MCA Music</em></div><div> </div><p>It is only now that Tabudlo has mustered the courage to reveal his fascination for Soberano. But ultimately it must be shared, like the stories of other artists touched by their chosen muses. </p><p>Tabudlo said he only wishes to thank her for helping him create music. </p><p>“One day I hope Liza would know of this story. If only to be able to thank her, for giving me hope that there is beauty, grace and kindness out there, and that because of her I discovered that I could write beautiful, inspiring and positive songs,” he told ABS-CBN News.</p><figure class="op-interactive"><iframe height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/7B7In1PZ1BY?enablejsapi=1" width="560"></iframe></figure><div class="iwantbar">Watch more in <a href="//www.iwantv.com.ph/">iWantv</a> or <a href="//tfc.tv/">TFC.tv</a></div><p>“Nangangamba” also speaks of finding an ideal love. “When you find love, your Liza, don’t take it for granted and tell them. It is also hoping that every guy will one day find their own Liza,” he said. </p><p>Tabudlo has also been tapped to record “Iyung-iyo”, the Tagalog version of the theme song of a Netflix Thai drama series to be released on Valentine week next month. </p><p>More opportunities are in the pipeline this year for Tabudlo, who is preparing a bigger surprise for Soberano. </p><p>His only wish for now for now is to finally personally meet his muse, who in his own words is the &quot;perfect Filipina.&quot; </p><figure class="op-interactive"><iframe height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/TyTzE8mXrm0?enablejsapi=1" width="560"></iframe></figure><div class="iwantbar">Watch more in <a href="//www.iwantv.com.ph/">iWantv</a> or <a href="//tfc.tv/">TFC.tv</a>   <em> Islands Records, MCA Music </em></div>
