Jennylyn Mercado (born May 15, 1987) is a Filipino actress, singer and songwriter. She gained fame as the winner of the first season of the reality talent competition StarStruck. Mercado is most known for receiving much critical acclaim at her young age for her acting performances on television and film. She has released three albums from GMA Records and Viva Records which have several popular singles such as "Sa Aking Panaginip", "Moments Of Love" collaboration with Janno Gibbs, "Maybe This Time" and "Kahit Sandali".
Mercado was born on May 15, 1987, to a mother who was a duty-free store beauty consultant. Mercado had opened up about her stepfather who abused her as a child. He burned her skin with cigarette butts. Her mother, who was working in Dubai at that time, immediately flew back to the Philippines not to help her daughter, but to bail out Mercado's stepfather, who was in jail for abusing his four-year-old daughter. After the incident, her aunt took her away from them and raised her, eventually adopting Jennylyn as her legal daughter.
Bakit ba hindi ko mapigilan ang
Nadarama ng puso ko
Kahit pa alam kong meron kang iba
Hindi pa rin magbabago and damdamin ko
Kaya kong ialay ang lahat sa iyo
Kahit ako'y di mo gusto
Nais lang na minsa'y makapiling ka
At minsa'y madama na akin
[CHORUS:]
Kahit Sandali
Pag-ibig mo sana'y maramdaman man lang
Mayakap ako at mahagkan kahit di mo mahal
Ang pag-ibig ko'y sa iyo lamang
Di ako aasa at maghihintay
Sa pag-ibig ng tulda mo
Tama na na minsay'y makapiling ka
At madam ang init nang pagmamahal mo
Kaya kong ialay ang lahat sa iyo
Kahit ako'y di mo gusto
Nais lang na minsa'y makapiling ka
At minsa'y madama na akin
[REPEAT CHORUS]
