Like You'll Never See Me Again
If I had no more time, no more time left to be here,
would you cherish what we had?
Was it everything that you were looking for?
If I couldn't feel your touch and no longer were you with me,
I'd be wishing you were here
to be everything that I'd been looking for.
I don't wanna forget the present is a gift.
And I don't wanna take for granted
the time you may have here with me.
'Cause Lord only knows another day is not really guaranteed.
So every time you hold me,
hold me like this is the last time.
Every time you kiss me,
kiss me like you'll never see me again.
Every time you touch me,
touch me like this is the last time.
Promise that you'll love me,
love me like you'll never see me again.
How many really know what love is?
Millions never will.
Do you know until you lose it?
That it's everything that we are looking for.
When I wake up in the morning, you're beside me.
I'm so thankful that I found everything that I'd been looking for.

Somewhere Out There
Somewhere out there beneath the pale moonlight,
someone's thinking of me and loving me tonight.
Somewhere out there someone's saying a prayer
that we'll find one another in that big somewhere out there.
And even though I know how very far apart we are,
it helps to think we might be wishing on the same bright star.
And when the night wind starts to sing a lonesome lullaby,
it helps to think we're sleeping underneath the same big sky.
Somewhere out there if love can see us through,
then we'll be together somewhere out there:
out where dreams come true.
flavour of the week
She paints her nails and she don't know
he's got her best friend on the phone.
She'll wash her hair,
His dirty clothes are all he gives to her.
And he's got posters on the wall of all the girls he wished she was.
And he means everything to her.
Her boyfriend, he don't know anything about her.
He's too stoned, Nintendo.
I wish that I could make her see.
She's just the flavour of the week.
It's friday night and she's all alone.
He's a million miles away.
She's dressed to kill but the TV's on,
he's connected to the sound.
And he's got pictures on the wall of all the girls he's loved before.
And she knows all his favourite songs.
Yeah, she's the flavour of the week.
But she makes me weak

…Dan Ketika
by: Malique & d’Essentials
Ketika waktu telah menciptakan cerita tentang kita,
mestinya semua indah kini yang terasa.
Sejujurnya kadang aku pun tak mengerti
peran apa yang kita jalani.
Seindahnya dunia ini tak ‘kan seindah
bila ku milikimu
dan ku milikmu.
Bila memang bukan kita yang tentukan
ke mana arah cinta ini ‘kan membawa.
Berikanlah aku satu jalanMu, Tuhan,
agar aku mengerti apa yang kita jalani.
Bilakah waktu tlah menentukan saatnya.
Saat untuk bersama, saat-saat kita jelang bahagia.
Percayalah, sayang, bukan aku tak sayang
bila cinta tak mampu bertahan.
Seindahnya dunia ini tak ‘kan seindah
bila ku milikimu
dan ku milikmu.
Tetaplah tersenyum,
yakinlah waktu telah tentukan saatnya
aku denganmu.

Most of this week!
- Nothing Last Forever [Maroon 5]. “It is so easy to see dysfunction between you and me. We must free up these tired souls before the sadness kills us both.I tried and tried to let you know I love you but I'm letting go. It may not last but I don't know, just don't know. If you don't know then you can't care. And you show up but you're not there.
But I'm waiting and you want to. Still afraid that I will desert you. A bed that's warm with memories can heal us temporarily.The misbehaving only makes the ditch between us so damn deep. Built a wall around my heart, I’ll never let it fall apart. But strangely, I wish secretly, it would fall down while I'm asleep. Though we have not hit the ground, it doesn't mean we're not still falling. I want so bad to pick you up but you're still too reluctant to accept my help. What a shame, I hope you find somewhere to place the blame.But until then the fact remains… Everyday, with every worthless word we get more far away. The distance between us makes it so hard to stay. But nothing lasts forever, but be honest babe, it hurts but it may be the only way.” - Back at Your Door [Maroon 5].
- Munajat Cinta [The Rock]. “..Tuhan, kirimkanlah aku kekasih yang baik hati yang mencintai aku apa adanya..”
- No Distance left to Run [Blur].
- Doing Just Fine [Boys II Men]. “ There was a time when I thought life was over and out. When you went away from me, my dying heart made it hard to breathe. Would sit in my room because I didn't want to have to go out and see you walking by. One look and I'd break right down and cry. Now you say that you made a big mistake. Never meant to take your love away. But you can save your tired apologies cause it may seem hard to believe. I'm doing just fine; getting along very well without you in my life. I'm doing just fine. Time made me stronger, you're no longer on my mind. You were my earth, my number one priority. Gave my love to only you. Anything you'd ask of me I would do. But somewhere down the road. You feel a change in the weather and told me that you have to journey on. A kiss in the wind and your love was gone. Now you say you never meant to play your games. Boy, don't you know it's far too late because you let our love just fall apart. You no longer have my heart. When you said goodbye I felt so all alone. There were times at night I couldn't sleep. My heart was much to weak to make it on my own. Baby, after all the misery and pain you put me through.So unfair to me. You're no longer my world and I ain't missing you at all."
- Back at One [Bryan McKnight].
- Unintended [Muse].
- Terlalu Cinta [Rossa].
- Satu Jam Saja [Audy]. “Jangan berakhir aku tak ingin berakhir. Satu jam saja, ku ingin diam berdua mengenang yang pernah ada. Jangan berakhir karena esok tak ‘kan lagi. Satu jam saja hingga kurasa bahagia mengakhiri segalanya. Tapi kini tak mungkin lagi. Katamu semua sudah tak berarti. Satu jam saja, itu pun tak mungkin, tak mungkin lagi. Jangan berakhir, ku ingin sebentar lagi. Satu jam saja, izinkan aku merasa rasa itu pernah ada.”
- Better That We Break [Maroon 5]. "I never knew perfection ‘til I heard you speak. And now it kills me just to hear you say the simple things. Now waking up is hard to do and sleeping is impossible too. Everything is reminding me of you. What can I do? It's not right, not OK. Say the words that you say. Maybe we're better off this way? I'm not fine, I'm in pain. It's harder everyday. Maybe we're better off this way? It's better that we break. A fool to let you slip away. I chase you just to hear you say. You're scared and that you think that I'm insane. The city look so nice from here. Pity, I can't see it clearly while you're standing there, it disappears. It disappears. So you sitting all alone. You're fragile and you're cold, but that's all right. Life, these days, is getting rough. They've knocked you down and beat you up. But it's just a rollercoaster anyway."
Back at Your Door
From the moment the lights went off,
everything had changed.
Lie awake in an empty room,
in my head, it all feels the same.
Like the taste of the day you left
that still lingers on my breath.
And the dampness of tears that left
a stain where you had wept.
All alone with the negligee
that still hangs off of my bed.
I keep meaning to give it away
but I just leave it there instead.
No need to cry about it,
I cannot live without it;
every time I wind up back at your door.
Why do you do this to me?
You penetrate right through me
every time I wind up back at your door
Three more days 'til I see your face
I’m afraid it’s far too much.
Cook a meal and fix up the place;
dial your number, hang it up.
If I took you for granted,
I apologize for acting tough.
You’re my reason for living
and there’s no way I’m giving up.
Now every evening is a bitter fight
and I’m eating home alone on a Friday night.
I know what your friends say,
“You’re just wasting your love and time.”
I will never let you change your mind.
No need to cry about it,
I cannot live without it;
every time I wind up back at your door
Why do you do this to me?
You penetrate right through me
every time I wind up back at your door.
No need to cry about it,
I may just die without it;
every time I wind up back at your door.
Why do you do this to me?
You penetrate right through me
every time I wind up back at your door.
Munajat Cinta
Malam ini ku sendiri,
tak ada yang menemani
seperti malam-malam yang sudah-sudah.
Hati ini selalu sepi,
tak ada yg menghiasi
seperti cinta ini yang selalu pupus.
Tuhan, kirimkanlah aku
kekasih yang baik hati;
yang mencintai aku
apa adanya.
Mawar ini semakin layu,
tak ada yg memiliki
seperti aku ini semakin pupus.

Hadapi dengan Senyum
Semua yang terjadi biar terjadi.
Hadapi dengan tenang jiwa.
Semua `kan baik-baik saja.
Bila ketetapan Tuhan sudah ditetapkan,
tetaplah sudah.
Tak ada yang bisa merubah
dan tak `kan bisa berubah.
Relakanlah saja ini
bahwa semua yang terbaik.
Terbaik untuk kita semua.
Menyerahlah untuk menang.
Larut
Mungkin aku pernah juga merasakan cinta.
Tapi tak pernah seindah ini.
Mungkin aku juga pernah merasakan rindu.
Tapi tak pernah sedalam ini.
Mungkin kamu takkan pernah percaya
bahwa sesungguhnya aku telah terjatuh.
Kuakui aku telah larut.
Larut ke dalam kamu yang ku cintai.

If
then why cant I paint you?
The words will never show the you I've come to know.
If a face could launch a thousand ships,
then where am I to go?
There's no one home but you.
You're all thats left me too.
And when my love for life is running dry,
you come and pour yourself on me.
If a man could be two places at one time;
I'd be with you.
Tomorrow and today,
beside you all the way.
If the world should stop revolving;
spinning slowly down to die,
I'd spend the end with you.
And when the world was through;
then one by one the stars would all go out,
then you and I would simply fly away.

You Make My Life So Colourful
Morning sun shines in our room,
now that gloom will back in two.
Autumn start just ‘day with a smile
and last on my beautiful love one
who’s lying besides me.
You’re so far away in your sleep.
Who can tell what dream you may dream.
You don’t know that I was drawing with my finger
on your sweet young face;
makes a meaning words
You make my world so colorful.
I’ve never had it so good.
My love, I thank you for all the love
you gave to me.
Like a summer breathe so soft.
Like a rose you bring me near.
And I kiss your lips so sweet,
soft like a rain and gentle winds
the morning dew in May.
Though they said that I was wrong
but thank God my will is strong.
I got you in the part of my hand
every day they try to put me on.
But I love that those who try
to heard our love.

It Might be You
Time, I’ve been passing time watching trains go by,
all of my life.
Lying on the sand, watching sea birds fly.
Wishing there would be someone waiting home for me.
Something’s telling me it might be you.
It’s telling me it might be you,
all of my life.
Looking back as lovers go walking past,
all of my life.
Wonderin’ how they met and what makes it last.
If I found the place, would I recognize the face.
Something’s telling me it might be you.
It’s telling me it might be you.
So many quite walk to take, so many dreams to wake,
and with so much love to make.
I think we’re gonna need some time.
Maybe all we need is time.
And it’s telling me it might be you,
all of my life.
I’ve been saving love songs and lullabies.
And there’s so much more no ones ever heard before.
Something’s telling me it might be you.
Yeah, it’s telling me it must be you.
And I’m feeling it’ll just be you,
all of my life.
It’s you, it’s you,
I’ve been waiting for all of my life.
But for Now
Sure, I know you’d like to have me talk about my future
and a million words or so to fill you in about my past.
Have I sisters or a brother, when’s my birthday, how’s my mother.
Well my dear, in time, I’ll answer all those things you ask.
But for now, I’ll just say I love you.
Nothing more seems important somehow.
And tomorrow can wait come whatever.
Let me love you forever but right now,
right now..
Some fine day when we go walking,
we’ll take time for idle talking,
sharing every feeling as we watch each other smile.
I’ll hold your hand, you’ll hold my hand.
We’ll say things we never had planned.
Then we’ll get to know each other in a little while.
But for now, let me say I love you.
Later on, there’ll be time for so much more.
But for now, meaning now and forever.
Let me kiss you, my darling, then once more,once more..
But for now, let me say I love you.
Later on, I must know much more of you.
But for now, here and now, how I love you.
As you are in my arms, I love you.
I love you...
I love you...
Bright Lights
He got out of town on a railway New York bound.
Took all except my name, another alien on Broadway.
There're some things in this world, you just can't change.
Something you can't see until it gets too late.
Baby, baby, baby,
when all your love is gone,
who will save me from all I'm up against out in this world?
Maybe, maybe, maybe.
You'll find something that's enough to keep you
but if the bright lights don't receive you.
You should turn yourself around
and come on home.
I got a hole in me now.
I got a scar I can talk about.
He keeps a picture of me in his apartment in the city
Some things in this world, man, they don't make sense.
Some things you don't need until they leave you.
And they're things that you miss.
Let that city take you in, *come on home*
Let that city spit you out, *come on home*
Let that city take you down.
*God's sake turn around*

Jauh Mimpiku
Berdua jalani certa
Kau ciptakan mimpiku
Jujurku hanya sesalkan diriku
Kau ciptakan mimpiku
Dan itu hanya sesalkan diriku
Ku harus lepaskanmu
Melupakan senyummu
Semua tentangmu tentangku hanya harap
Jauh ku jauh mimpiku dengan inginku
[Peterp*n]

Most of this week!
August 12th, 2007
My room [14:21]
1. Bright Lights [Matchbox 20]. “...Some things in this world you just can’t change, something you can’t see until it gets too late. Baby, baby, baby. When all your love is gone, who will save me from all I’m up against up against out in this world. Maybe, maybe, maybe, you’ll find something that’s enough to keep you. But if the bright lights don’t receive you, you should turn yourself around and come on home. I got a hole in me now. I got a scar I can’t talk about... But some things in this world, man, they don’t make sense. Some things you don’t need until they leave you, and they’r things that you miss..”
2. Nothing Lasts Forever [Maroon 5]. It is so easy to see dysfunction between you and me. We must free up these tired souls before the sadness kills us both. I tried and tried to let you know. I love you but I'm letting go. It may not last but I don't know, just don't know, if you don't know then you can't care. And you show up but you're not there. But I'm waiting and you want to. Still afraid that I will desert you. Everyday, with every worthless word we get more far away. The distance between us makes it so hard to stay. But nothing lasts forever, but be honest babe. It hurts but it may be the only way. A bed that's warm with memories can heal us temporarily. The misbehaving only makes the ditch between us so damn deep. Built a wall round my heart. I’ll never let it fall apart. But strangely I wish secretly, it would fall down while I'm asleep… Tough we have not hit the ground. It doesn't mean we're not still falling. I want so bad to pick you up but you're still too reluctant to accept my help. What a shame, I hope you find somewhere to place the blame. But until then the fact remains…”
3. Move Over (Generation Next) [Spice Girls]
4. Tender [Blur]. “Tender is the night lying by your side. Tender is the touch of someone that you love too much. Tender is the day the demons go away. Lord, I need to find someone who can heal my mind. Tender is the ghost, the ghost I love the most. Hiding from the sun, waiting for the night to come. Tender is my mind who through in out my lies. Lord, I need to find someone who can heal my mind. Come on, come on, come on, get through it. Come on, come on, come on, love’s a greatest thing. Come on, come on, come on, get through it. Come on, come on, come on, love’s a greatest thing that we have. I am waiting for that feeling, waiting for that feeling, waiting for that feeling, to come. Oh my baby, oh my baby. Oh why, oh my..”
5. Untukku [Chrisye]. “...Saat lautan kau sebrangi, janganlah ragu bersauh. Ku percaya hati kecilku, kau tak ‘kan berpaling... Di mana engkau berada, di sana cintaku. Walau ke ujung dunia, pasti akan kunanti. Meski ke tujuh samudera, pasti ku ‘kan menunggu..”
6. What’s Up [4 Non Blondes].
7. Don’t Dream It’s Over [Sixpence None The Ritcher]. “...But you'll never reach the end of the road while you're traveling with me. Hey now, hey now, don't dream it's over. Hey now, hey now, when the world comes in. They come, they come, to build a wall between us. We know they won't win... My possessions are causing me suspicion but there's no proof... And I'm counting the steps to the door of your heart. Only shadows ahead barely clearing the roof. Get to know the feeling of liberation and relief..”
8. Disguse [Lene Marlin]. “Have you ever felt somekind of emptiness inside, you will never measure up to those people of you. Must be strong, can’t show them that you’re weak. Have you ever told someone something that’s far from the truth. Let them know that you’re okay, just to make them stop all the wondering phases they may have... Have you ever seen your face in the mirror, there’s a smile, but inside you’re just a mess. You feel far from good. Need to hide cause they will never understand. Have you ever had this wish, being somewhere else. To let go off your disguise, all your worries to. From that moment, then you see things clear... Are you waiting for that day when your pain will disappear; when you know that it’s not true... I am okay, I really am now. Just needed some time to figure things out. Not telling lies, I’ll be honest with you. Still, we don’t know what’s yet to come.”
9. Something Kinda Funny [Spice Girls]. “...It’s you, I knew, that I have got to feel. Don’t take from me mor than you really need... It’s you, I knew, that I have got to feel. Take from me what you feel that you need... We’ve got something kinda funny going on... I’ll make that easy..”
10. Selamat Tinggal [Indra Lesmana & Gilang Ramadhan]. “Seringkali bertanya saat bahagia hadir, akankah ada akhir, akankah tuk slamanya. Seringkali bertanya adilkah hidup ini kala sedih melanda, meruntuhkan rasa di jiwa. Tak mudah untuk di hati. Tak mudah untuk dihadapi. Saat harus mengucap selamat tinggal. segala tentang cinta buat hati terlena membawa kedamaian, menyejukkan dunia. Segala tentang sesal membuat hati kecewa, membawa air mata, meruntuhkan rasa di jiwa. Kadang ingin jauh berlari bila diri bertemu realita.”

Childhood's Soundtrack
August 5th, 2007.
Recently, I like to remember my childhood song. It was full with Spice Girls’, Backstreet Boys’, 5ive’s, Boyzone’s, 911’s. My cousin, Astari, introduced me with these kind of musics. From the moment I heard Spice Girls cassette played in her car, I fell for it rght away. I did fancy Gery Halliwell—ginger spice—who later chose to get out from this magnificent girlband.
You know what, my cousins and I made a vocal group, named Paradise, which had ever sang live in Lapangan Banteng. We sang Spice Girls’ songs: four songs in total. Spice up your life, Say You’ll Be There, Mama, and Wannabe. Whoaaa... It was truly embarassing and fascinating also. Hahahaha.
My favourite Spice Girls’ songs are Two Become One and Love Thing. Gery is absolutely charming and beautiful in Two Become One video. OMG, what a woman!
Two Become One
By: Spice Girls
Album: Spice Girls [Track 3]
Candle light and soul forever,
a dream of you and me together
Say you believe it, say you believe it
Free your mind of doubt and danger
Be for real, don’t be a stranger
We can achieve it, we can achieve it.
Come little bit closer, baby
Get it on, get it on
‘Cause the night is the night
When two become one
I need some of love like I never need a love before
*wanna make love to you, baby*
I had a little love, now I’m beg for more
*wanna make love to you, baby*
Set your spirit free, it’s the only way to be
Silly games that you were playing
Empty words we both were saying
Let’s work it out, boy. Let’s work it out, boy
Once again if we endeavour,
love can bring us back together
Take it or leave it, take it or leave it
Are you as good as I remember, baby?
Get it on, get it on
‘Cause the night is the night
When two become one
Be a little bit wiser, baby
Put it on, put it on
‘Cause the night is the night
When two become one...
Love Thing
By: Spice Girls
Album: Spice Girls [Track 4]
*You know I don't wanna know*
Don't wanna know about that love thing
Give me what I'm needing
You know what I'm dreaming of
Don't wanna know about that love thing
Been broken hearted before
but that's the last time it happens to me
I keep on giving still you're asking for more
Too much emotion, baby, why can't you see
I am not afraid of your love
Why can't you see I've had my share of that
You're what I want, boy
You know you got to, boy
You gotta want me, it's just what I need
I am not that easy as a matter of fast
There's no room for loving
Stop that push and shoving
*Don't wanna know about that love thing*
Give me what I'm needing
You know what I'm dreaming of
*Don't wanna know about that love thing*
Now don't go wasting my time
You're not the only thing I got on my mind
My friends are with me when you ain't been around
Your precious words and promises
They bringin me down
I've got some living to do
But don't assume I'm gonna be with you
Denying
By: Spice Girls
Album: Spice World
You think you're quick but I'd like to see you keep it up with me
You think you're slick but I'd like to see you pull a trick on me
You think you're so cool, hey big man, you're old school
You think you're smart but who the hell d'ya think you're talking to?
Everyone can see who you are
Take a look at yourself
Tell me, why keep on denying
Everything you say, denying
Everything you do
So be a fool to yourself forever more,
Trying any kind of move, tell me
So what's it gonna prove
You ain't foolin' nobody,
You ain't foolin' nobody,
But yourself
I know you're sweet but I know you don't want to be seen that way
Admit defeat, win or lose, who cares? It's just a game you play
I know you need me, if you stay that way it's never gonna be
You've got your style but I know what you really want from me
Check yourself but don't forget yourself 'cause you're denying
You get everything you are and even everything you need,
that's life, come on, check yourself!
And at that time, I think, BSB was being a boyband phenomenon. I did hope that every member of Spice Girls would end to marry every member of BSB or Boyzone. It was proven a while by Emma Bunton and Stephen Gately’s affair, until Gately’s proven that he’s a gay. Hahaha.
My favorite person in BSB is Bryan. He’s very funny. His voice is deeply touching. He’s very charming!!! Maybe the second place is Kevin when he has a haircut lie in the second album videos [I Want It That Way, Show Me The Meaning of Being a Lonely, Larger Than Life]
As long as u luv me
By: Backstreet Boys
Although loneliness has always been a friend of mine
I'm leaving my life in your hands
People say I'm crazy and that I am blind
Risking it all in a glance
And how you got me blind is still a mystery
I can't get you out of my head
Don't care what is written in your history
As long as you're here with me
I don't care who you are
Where you're from
What you did
As long as you love me
Who you are
Where you're from
Don't care what you did
As long as you love me
Every little thing that you have said and done
Feels like it's deep within me
Doesn't really matter if you're on the run
It seems like we're meant to be
I've tried to hide it so that no one knows
But I guess it shows
When you look into my eyes
What you did and where you are comin' from
I don't care, as long as you love me, baby.
