Fall For You, Secondhand Serenade

Fall For You

The best thing about tonight’s that we’re not fighting
It couldn’t be that we have been this way before
I know you don’t think that I am trying
I know you’re wearing thin down to the core

But hold your breath

Because tonight will be the night that I will fall for you
Over again
Don’t make me change my mind

Or I won’t live to see another day
I swear its true
Because a girl like you is impossible to find
You’re impossible to find

This is not what I intended
I always swore to you I’d never fall apart
You always thought that I was stronger
I may have failed
But I have loved you from the start

Oh, but hold your breath

Because tonight will be the night that I will fall for you
Over again
Don’t make me change my mind
I won’t live to see another day
I swear it’s true
Because a girl like you is impossible to find
It’s impossible to find

So breathe in so deep
Breathe me in
I’m yours to keep

And hold onto your words
‘Cause talk is cheap
And remember me tonight when you’re asleep

Because tonight will be the night that I will fall for you
Over again
Don’t make me change my mind
I won’t live to see another day
I swear it’s true
Because a girl like you is impossible to find

You’re impossible to find

Sinatra, Frank

“Fly Me To The Moon (In Other Words)”

Fly me to the moon
Let me play among the stars
Let me see what spring is like
On a-Jupiter and Mars
In other words, hold my hand
In other words, baby, kiss me

Fill my heart with song
And let me sing for ever more
You are all I long for
All I worship and adore
In other words, please be true
In other words, I love you

Fill my heart with song
Let me sing for ever more
You are all I long for
All I worship and adore
In other words, please be true
In other words, in other words
I love you

Bart Howard, 1954

Daydream

IMG_7504

You’re the one I’ll never get the chance to explore.

The little piece of happiness I’ll never complete.

The unspoken obscurity.

The allure that is never going to fade.

The tenderness I get to experience in mere count.

The love I was never meant to recieve.

And believe it or not,

You, sir, are my unattainable reverie.

Far Away

C360_2015-07-01-23-36-15-529

Aku hanya seorang pengagum

Mengucap rindu dari jauh

Bertahan oleh karena waktu

Hilang pun tiada yang tahu

.

Salahkan saja takdir dalam kalbu

Aku mencintaimu barang seribu lagu

Satu kedip jatuhkan hati

Hari berhenti kunjung dinanti

.

Katakan padaku siapa dirimu

Dibalik nama tersimpan malu

Senyum sedikit jatuhkan lagi

Harapan tersirat dalam detik

.

Hempas aku biar terbang tinggi

Jauhkan dari pesona sakti

Karena aku ragu kita kan bertemu

Kata mereka yang tak pernah tahu

That Thing about Waiting

IMG_7622

“Lima tahun lagi?”

“Ya, lima tahun lagi”

Apa yang bisa berubah dalam lima tahun, memangnya?

Lalu suatu pagi aku bangun dan mendapati kau sudah tak disana. Hatiku hancur, seperti bayangan dalam mimpi.

Senyumku hilang arti, tidak utuh. Sementara yang lain bersuara di kehidupan asli.

Aku mencintainya, percayalah.

Tetapi cinta itu buta, dan gelap tak mengenal ujung.

Kau menawarkan penerangan, entah untuk berapa lama.

“Aku butuh kepastian. Kita butuh arti”

“Lima tahun lagi, kita lihat nanti”

Rupa-rupanya waktu tak pernah setia. Matahariku direbut orang dan hatiku tercengkram bulan.

Karena sejujurnya sepuluh tahun lagi bisa jadi tak sampai. Sedang lima tahun lebih pasti.

Dengannya terjadi kesesakan, aku bergulat sendiri.

Tapi denganmu, ada secarik harapan.

Aku mencintaimu, mungkin lima tahun lagi.

Tak terbalas, aku akan sakit.
