Apa yang hendak saya bahas kali ini? Pada tanggal
ini, saya akan membahas tentang lagu “If You’re Not The One”-nya Daniel
Bedingfield. Sebelumnya, saya akan cerita dikit darimana saya dapat lagu ini.
Berawal dari sebuah tragedi (yang menurut saya naas), seorang teman
mendengarkan saya tentang lagu ini.
Sebelum sholat, ia memberikan handphonenya padaku dan berkata, “Tekan tombol
‘play’ sementara aku sholat. Suaranya jangan terlalu besar. Dengarkan sendiri
saja.”
“Untuk apa?” Aku bertanya.
“Sebatas tes grammar. Cuma nge-check apakah kupingmu
dapat menangkap kata-kata bahasa Inggris atau tidak.”
Ia segera berlalu untuk sholat. Test Listening
sebuah lagu. Itukah alasannya? Aku penasaran. Kalek memang unpredictable.
Segera ku tekan tombol ‘play’. Ku dengar lagu itu. Lagu berjudul “If You’re Not
The One”.
===================
If you’re not the one then why does my soul feel
glad today?
If you’re not the one then why does my hand fit
yours this way?
If you are not mine then why does your heart return
my call
If you are not mine would I have the strength to
stand at all
I'll never know whatthe future brings
But I know you're here with me now
We’ll make it through
And I hope you are the one I share my life with
I don’t want to run away but I can’t take it, I
don’t understand
If I’m not made for you then why does my heart tell
me that I am?
Is there any way that I can stay in your arms?
If I don’t need you then why am I crying on my bed?
If I don’t need you then why does your name resound
in my head?
If you’re not for me then why does this distance
maim my life?
If you’re not for me then why do I dream of you as
my wife?
I don’t know why you’re so far away
But I know that this much is true
We’ll make it through
And I hope you are the one I share my life with
And I wish that you could be the one I die with
And I pray in you’re the one I build my home with
I hope I love you all my life
I don’t want to run away but I can’t take it, I
don’t understand
If I’m not made for you then why does my heart tell
me that I am
Is there any way that I can stay in your arms?
‘Cause I miss you, body and soul so strong that it
takes my breath away
And I breathe you into my heart and pray for the
strength to stand today
‘Cause I love you, whether it’s wrong or right
And though I can’t be with you tonight
You know my heart is by your side
I don’t want to run away but I can’t take it, I
don’t understand
If I’m not made for you then why does my heart tell
me that I am
Is there any way that I could stay in your arms

Terimakasih untuk Kalek atas lagu yang diberikan.
Ya. Itulah dia. Aku menceritakan ‘hal’
tersebut kepada Kalek dan saat itu juga dia mendengarkanku sebuah lagu. Apakah
Kalek sudah mengetahuinya sejak awal? Atau bagaimana?
By the way…Menurut saya, lagu If You’re Not The One
itu sangat menyentuh. Mengapa? Silakan terjemahin sendiri2 sambil dengerin
lagunya… hehehe
