This is why I need you

I have so many questions, and places to go
There are too many options, far too many unknowns
This is why I need you

(And) everyone talks now, but no one is right
There are too many armies, with no one to fight
This is why I need you

Cause you make the darkness less dark
You make the edges less sharp
You make the winter feel warmer
(And) you make my weakness less weak
You make the bottom less deep
You make the waiting feel shorter
You make my crazy feel normal, every time
You are the who, love is the what, and this is the why

There are so many problems, and no one who cares
There are so many roads, and they all need repairs
This is why I need you

And there's not enough chocolate, there's too many chores
There are so many mountains, that I haven't explored
This is why I need you

You keep the ship moving forward
And you make it easy to try
You make my crazy feel normal, every time
You are the who, love is the what, and this is the why

- Jesse Ruben

Thunder

Musim hujan, di ibukota tercinta. Hujan juga mengguyur kota rantau. Malam ini begitu dingin, tidak seperti biasanya. Aku di rumah dan kamu di kontrakan. Aku di Jakarta, kamu di Surabaya. Baru melepas kurang dari 3 hari, sepertinya, tetapi rindu sudah meronta. Semakin lekat rasanya, semakin ingin kujaga, dirimu. Guntur dan gemericik air hujan yang terdengar, tidak menggangguku mendengarkan lantunan lagu ini. Lagu yang manis, untuk kamu.

Today is a winding road that's taking me

To places that I didn't want to go, whoa

Today in the blink of an eye

I'm holding on to something

And I do not know why I tried

I tried to read between the lines

I tried to look in your eyes

I want a simple explanation

For what I'm feeling inside

I gotta find a way out

Maybe there's a way out

Your voice was the

Soundtrack of my summer

Do you know you're unlike any other?

You'll always be my thunder

I said, your eyes

Are the brightest of all the colors

I don't wanna ever love another

You'll always be my thunder

So bring on the rain

And bring on the thunder

Today is a winding road, tell me where to start

And tell me something I don't know, whoa

Today I'm on my own, I can't move a muscle

And I can't pick up the phone, I don't know

And now I'm itching for the tall grass

And longing for the breeze

I need to step outside

Just to see if I can breathe

I gotta find a way out

Maybe there's a way out

Your voice.....

Yeah, I'm walking on a tightrope

I'm wrapped up in vines, I think we'll make it out

But you just gotta give me time

Strike me down with lightning

Let me feel you in my veins

I wanna let you know how much I feel your pain

Today.....

Oh, baby bring on the pain

And listen to the thunder

I Think I'm In Love With You

Inget beberapa bulan lalu, cuma bisa ngeliatin dari jauh, mengagumi dari dalam hati. Saja. Nggak ngerti sih sebenernya kenapa bisa hahaha. Nggak pernah ada bayangan sama sekali, ngarep aja enggak. Sa-ma se-ka-li. Sumpah. Ini lucu sih sumpah. Temenku sampe pusing sendiri kali ya dengerin aku yang enggak sengaja keceplosan menunjukkan kekagumanku ke kamu. Aku tertarik sama kamu, kamunya ngerasa nggak waktu itu? Temen kamu nyadar, pasti, kalo merhatiin gelagat aku:

Aku yang nggak bisa ngeliat mata kamu kalo lagi papasan, aku yang langsung stay cool padahal nahan malu mampus kalo kamu nyapa, aku yang panjang lebar bales comment kamu di medsos, aku yang jejingkrakan waktu kamu follow dan ngelike foto di instagramku, minta foto juga, aku yang deg-degan waktu kamu nelfon buat bangunin aku, aku yang antusias ndengerin voice note nyanyianmu dan senyam-senyum sendiri setelahnya, aku yang pengen banget bisa foto satu frame sama kamu, aku yang ngeliatin foto kamu abis panitiaan bareng ya secara jadi sie dokumentasi kan, aku yang excited banget waktu tau kamu pergi ke museum yang sama meskipun selang satu hari, aku yang sering banget ngaca di kampus waktu itu sampe temen-temen heran, aku yang jadi semangat nyatet kalo lagi kuliah sampe temen-temen ngeledekin. 

Aku iya aku yang salting nggak karuan waktu kamu ajak aku ketemu, aku yang gelapan mau bersikap kayak gimana pake baju apa pake sepatu apa, aku yang khawatir muka aku kucel apa enggak atau rambut aku yang lepek atau enggak atau kantong mata lagi kayak panda atau enggak dan yang hasilnya aku enggak bisa mikir dan memutuskan untuk apa adanya saja, aku yang berkaos plus cardigan hitam andalan ditambah sepatu flat maroon kesayangan dengan rambut terurai. Dah. Itu aja. Juga... Aku yang mati gaya waktu kamu pakein helm ke kepala aku. Mati adek, bang! Eh... Mati mbak, dek! Ya semenjak hari-hari itu... Harapan dan doa mulai ada di hati.

Pas denger lagu ini... Ya ketawa aja jadinya hahaha

If you got an eerie feeling after hanging up the phone
Sort of happy feeling but you’re not sure what it’s called

If you’re haunted by his face whenever you’re asleep at night
And think you hear his silly voice just calling out your name

Oh, no! I think I’m in love with you..
Oh, no! I’m hoping you’ll want me too
So, please..don’t let me down!

Just can’t help but talk about him in every conversation
Till your friends are sick and tired of that same old crap

If you start wearing make up even when you go to bed
Crying like a baby when you hear a mellow song
- Mocca

Dekat di Hati

Dering telfonku membuatku tersenyum di pagi hari
Kau bercerita semalam kita bertemu dalam mimpi
Entah mengapa aku merasakan hadirmu di sini
Tawa candamu menghibur saat ku sendiri

Aku di sini dan kau di sana
Hanya berjumpa via suara
Namun ku selalu menunggu
Saat kita akan berjumpa

Meski kau kini jauh di sana
Kita memandang langit yang sama
Jauh di mata namun dekat di hati

Dering telfonku membuatku tersenyum di pagi hari
Kau bercerita semalam kita bertemu dalam mimpi
Entah mengapa aku merasakan hadirmu di sini
Tawa candamu menghibur saat ku sendiri

Aku di sini dan kau di sana
Hanya berjumpa via suara
Namun ku selalu menunggu
Saat kita akan berjumpa

Meski kau kini jauh di sana
Kita memandang langit yang sama
Jauh di mata namun dekat di hati

Aku di sini dan kau di sana
Hanya berjumpa via suara
Namun ku selalu menunggu
Saat kita akan berjumpa

Meski kau kini jauh di sana
Kita memandang langit yang sama
Jauh di mata namun dekat di hati

Jarak dan waktu takkan berarti
Karena kau akan selalu di hati
Bagai detak jantung yang ku bawa
Kemanapun ku pergi oh oh oh

Meski kau kini jauh di sana
Kita memandang langit yang sama
Jauh di mata namun dekat di hati

Unintended

You could be my unintended
Choice to live my life extended
You could be the one I'll always love
You could be the one who listens to my deepest inquisitions
You could be the one I'll always love

I'll be there as soon as I can
But I'm busy mending broken pieces of the life I had before

First there was the one who challenged
All my dreams and all my balance
She could never be as good as you

You could be my unintended
Choice to live my life extended
You should be the one I'll always love

I'll be there as soon as I can
But I'm busy mending broken pieces of the life I had before

I'll be there as soon as I can
But I'm busy mending broken pieces of the life I had before

Before you

Anniversary

I know that I'm awake,
but I'm dreaming all the same.
I know that you are scared,
but baby don't be.
cause It's one thing to say everything will be okay.
and quite another thing to believe.

I know that sometimes things can get so rough.
and I know that sometimes words are not enough.
and I know it's been a hard year,
being apart,
but It was better than the one before.

I know that we're okay,
but I worry all the same.
I know that you are strong,
but you don't always have to be.
cause it's one thing to say everything will be okay
and quite another thing to believe.

I know that sometimes things can get so rough.
and I know that sometimes words are not enough.
and I know it's been a hard year,
being apart,
but It was better than the one before.

Take Me With You

Please forgive me if I seem forward

But I've never been in front of anything like you
Its the last place I ever thought I'd be
When I woke up this morning
Is it true?
And that you're always this breathtaking
And your smart and you're willing
My God this is killing me

Tell me all the things you never said
We can lie here and talk for hours in my bed

I don't have anything to hide
I don't have anything
Everything is not for certain
I don't have anything to hide
I don't have anything
Everything is not for certain

You started to see right through me
And I'm loving every minute of it
Its like I'm born again
Every time I breath in so,
If you're curious,
My favorite color's blue
And I like to sing in the shower
If you like, I'll sing to you

Tell me all the things you never said
We can lie here and talk for hours in my bed

I don't have anything to hide
I don't have anything
Everything is not for certain
I don't have anything to hide
I don't have anything
Every thing is not for certain

Tell me all of your hopes,
All of your dreams
I want you to take me there (take me there)
Tell me all of your hopes,
all of your dreams
I want to take you there (take you there)
Tell me everything
Every breath, I want you to know I'll be there
There's just one more thing,
One request
I want you to take me with you

Take me with you
I will never let you down
I will love you now and forever

- Secondhand Serenade

When We Say

Somethin bout the way
Somethin bout the way you look
In my eyes
You make everything so damn easy
So easy that I don't got to worry bout a thing

And baby when we touch
All I can see is the image of us
Sitting by the ocean
Just before the dusk
Sippin on a juice box and
Sand between our toes

This is the part when we say were in love
And the part where we have our first kiss
But this ain't a movie
I know you can't come with me
You got your life
He better be treatin you right

Just tell me you don't love me
Tell me you don't feel the same way that I do
Tell me I don't make you smile
Like I do when you walk in the room
You're so hard to let go

This is the part when we say were in love
And the part where we say it's forever
But this ain't a fantasy
I know you can't come with me
You got your life
He better be treatin you right
You got your life
He better be treatin you right

This hurts so much to know that you're
With someone else when you should be with me
It's just hard to accept that I can't be around
He better be treatin you good
I'm no Einstein but I know a sign
When I see one
And I know you love me too
And I know you love me too

This is the part when we say were in love
And the part where we have our first kiss
But this ain't a movie
I know you can't come with me
You got your life
He better be treatin you good
You got your life
He better be treatin you right

Take Me Away

Take me away to January
I'm done with this year, I'm tired of everyone here
I just need some time alone
Before I'm ready to come back home
There's gotta be something else out there for me
I could feel it in my heart the day I started to dream
There's more than this Midwestern town
I can't let this place keep me down

So I tell myself

"There's a girl out on the coast of California,
There's a world out there and it's waiting for you."
And I can hear them calling my name tonight.

Take me away, I need the sand and the waves
The sunset and let's not forget those warm autumn days
I just need to get out of here
And visit the coast just to see her
There's gotta be something else out there for me
I could feel it in my heart the day I started to dream
There's more than this Midwestern town
I can't let this place keep me down

So I tell myself

"There's a girl out on the coast of California,
There's a world out there and it's waiting for you."
And I can hear them calling my name tonight.

Take me away to January
I'm done with this year, I'm tired of everyone here
I just need some time alone
Before I'm ready to come back home

Bukan Pujangga

Aku mungkin bukan pujangga
Aku mungkin tak selalu ada
Ini diriku apa adanya

Aku mungkin bukan pujangga
Aku mungkin tak selalu ada
Ini diriku apa adanya

Mungkin aku bukan pujangga
Yang pandai merangkai kata
Ku tak selalu kirimkan bunga
Untuk ungkapkan hatiku

Mungkin aku takkan pernah
Memberi intan permata
Mungkin aku tak selalu
Ada di dekatmu

Ku ingin kau tahu isi di hatiku
Ku tak akan lelah dengan hati ini
Hingga dunia tak bermentari

Satu yang kupinta
Yakini dirimu hati ini milikmu
Semua yang kulakukan untukmu
Lebih dari sebuah kata cinta untukmu

Good Song

`Today I realize that there is a very good song lyrics. Songs from Dream Theater, Answer Lies Within entitled`

Look around

Where do you belong
Don't be afraid
You're not the only one

Don't let the day go by
Don't let it end
Don't let a day go by in doubt
The answer lies within

Life is short
So learn from your mistakes
And stand behind
The choices that you make

Face each day
With both eyes open wide
And try to give
Don't keep it all inside

Don't let the day go by
Don't let it end
Don't let a day go by in doubt
The answer lies within

You've got the future on your side
You're gonna be fine now
I know whatever you decide
You're gonna shine

Don't let the day go by
Don't let it end
Don't let a day go by in doubt
You're ready to begin
Don't let a day go by in doubt
The answer lies within.

Yellow

Look at the stars,
Look how they shine for you,
And everything you do,
Yeah, they were all yellow.

I came along,
I wrote a song for you,
And all the things you do,
And it was called "Yellow."

So then I took my turn,
Oh what a thing to have done,
And it was all "Yellow."

Your skin
Oh yeah, your skin and bones,
Turn into something beautiful,
You know, you know I love you so,
You know I love you so.

I swam across,
I jumped across for you,
Oh what a thing to do.

Cos you were all "Yellow,"
I drew a line,
I drew a line for you,
Oh what a thing to do,
And it was all "Yellow."

Your skin,
Oh yeah your skin and bones,
Turn into something beautiful,
And you know for you,
I'd bleed myself dry for you,
I'd bleed myself dry.

It's true, look how they shine for you,
Look how they shine for you,
Look how they shine for,
Look how they shine for you,
Look how they shine for you,
Look how they shine.

Look at the stars,
Look how they shine for you,
And all the things that you do.

- Coldplay

Ku Bahagia

Kita bermain-main

Siang-siang hari senin

Tertawa satu sama lain

Semua bahagia semua bahagia

Kita berangan-angan

Merangkai masa depan

Di bawah kerindangan dahan

Semua bahagia semua bahagia

Matahari seakan tersenyum

Walau makan susah
Walau hidup susah
Walau ‘tuk senyumpun susah
Rasa syukur ini karena bersamamu juga susah dilupakan

Oh ku bahagia
Oh ku bahagia

Kita berlari-lari
Bersama mengejar mimpi
Tak ada kata ‘tuk berhenti
Semua bahagia semua bahagia

Oh ku bahagia oh ku bahagia
Oh ku bahagia
Oh ku bahagia
Oh ku bahagia

- Sherina

Plain White T's - Write You A Song

I don't know how to make lots of money
I got debts that I'm trying to pay
I can't buy you nice things, like big diamond rings
But that don't mean much anyway

I can't give you the house you've been dreaming
If I could I would build it alone
I'd be out there all day, just hammering away
Make us a place of our own

I will write you a song
That's how you'll know that my love is still strong
I will write you a song
And you'll know from this song that I just can't go on without you

I don't know that I'd make a good soldier
I don't believe in being violent and cruel
I don't know how to fight, but I'll draw blood tonight
If somebody tries hurting you

I will write you a song
That's how you'll know that my love is still strong
I will write you a song
And you'll know from this song that I just can't go on without you

Now that it's out on the table (it's out on the table)
Both of us knew all along (knew all along)
I've got your loving and you've got my song

I don't know how to make lots of money
I don't know all the right things to do
I can't say where we'll go, but the one thing I know
Is how to be a good man to you
Until I die that's what I'll do

I will write you a song
That's how you'll know that my love is still strong
I will write you a song
And you'll know from this song that I just can't go on without

I will write you a song (I will write you a song)
That's how you'll know that my love is still strong (love is still strong)

I will write you a song
And you know from this song that I just can't go on without you
