They’re back!

Posted on by under Music to the Ears

Yes. They’re back. Woo hoo!

It’s unbelievably hard to love you
But I love you anyway
I’ve been trying too hard not to love you
But I love you anyway
It’s so incredibly hard to love you
But I love you anyway
And every time I try too hard not to love you
I love you anyway

Boyzone – Love You Anyway

Menaruh Harapan

Posted on by under Music to the Ears

I was reading  Utusan Online when I came across two articles written about Zaiton Sameon, entitled Eton Masih Menaruh Harapan and Rintihan Eton Siapa Yang Tahu. Call me lame, but I love, love songs from the 80s. The lyrics were much more straightforward and simple, no beating around the bush or metaphoric kind of thing. Of course, that includes Zaiton Sameon’s Menaruh Harapan. Enjoy!

Sepanjang perjalanan ini
Lembah dan lurah ku lewati
Ketenangan yang ku cari
Belum ku temui

Ku menghimpun doa bertahun
Mencari pepohon yang rimbun
Bertemu dahan yang rapuh
Tempat ku berteduh

Dulu aku sendiri
Kini masih sendiri
Hadapi hidup ini
Susah senang diri ku
Tak bertempat mengadu
Seperti burung kepatahan sayap…
Dihati kecil ku menaruh harapan…

Selagi hidup belum sudah
Aku akan terus melangkah
Ku yakin rahmat buat ku
Di hadapan menunggu…

Calling You

Posted on by under Music to the Ears

There’s something that I can’t quite explain
I’m so in love with you
You’ll never take that away
And if I’ve said it a hundred times before
Expect a thousand more
You’ll never take that away

Well expect me to be
Calling you to see
If you’re OK when I’m not around
Asking “if you love me”
I love the way you make it sound
Calling you to see
Do I try too hard to make you smile?
To make us smile

[Chorus]
I will keep calling you to see
If you’re sleeping, are you dreaming
If you’re dreaming, are you dreaming of me
I can’t believe you actually picked me

I thought that the world had lost it’s sway
It’s so hard sometimes
Then I fell in love with you
Then came you
And you took that away
It’s not so difficult
The world is not so difficult
You take away the old
Show me the new
And I feel like I can fly when I stand next to you
So while I’m on this phone
A hundred miles from home
I’ll take the words you gave me and send them back to you

I only want to see
If you’re OK when I’m not around
Asking “if you love me”
I love the way you make it sound
Calling you to see
Do I try too hard to make you smile?
To make us smile

[Chorus]

Kangen

Posted on by under Music to the Ears

Kut’rima suratmu t’lah kubaca dan aku mengerti
Betapa merindunya dirimu akan hadirnya diriku
Di dalam hari-harimu bersama lagi

Kau tanyakan padaku kapan aku akan kembali lagi
Katamu kau tak kuasa melawan gejolak di dalam dada
Yang membara menahan rasa pertemuan kita nanti
Saat bersama dirimu

Semua kata rindumu semakin membuatku tak berdaya
Menahan rasa ingin jumpa
Percayalah padaku aku pun rindu kamu
Ku akan pulang melepas semua kerinduan yang terpendam

Kau tuliskan padaku kata cinta yang manis dalam suratmu
Kau katakan padaku saat ini ku ingin hangat pelukmu
Dan belai lembut kasihmu tak kan ku lupa s’lamanya
Saat kau ada disisiku

Jangan katakan cinta
Menambah beban rasa
Sudah simpan saja sedihmu itu
Ku akan datang, oh..
