Aku tak mengerti … apa yang kurasa,
Rindu yang tak pernah … begitu hebatnya
Aku mencintaimu lebih dari yang kau tahu …
Meski kau tak akan pernah tahu

Aku persembahkan … hidupku untukmu,
Telah kurelakan … hatiku padamu,
Namun kau masih bisu … diam seribu bahasa
Dan hati kecilku bicara …

Reff : Baru kusadari …
Cintaku bertepuk sebelah tangan
Kau buat remuk seluruh hatiku …

Semoga waktu akan mengilhami sisi hatimu yang beku,
Semoga akan datang keajaiban, hingga akhirnya kaupun mau

Aku mencintaimu
Lebih dari yang kau tahu …
Meski kau tak kan pernah tahu …

Composer: Ahmad Dhani, for the album “Cintailah Cinta”.
Lyrics courtesy of the official Dewa website.

I did not intend for my first post in this new blog to be the lyrics of a song that is potentially deemed tear-jerking and emotional. But Pupus is one hell of a song, with great chords, great singing, and great lyrics. I find this song entire album so good, I am not sure how may times it has been playing in my computer already. If you want to hear some honest expression through the voice, melody, harmony, rhythm and lyrics, albeit slightly love-oriented (the album name IS Cintailah Cinta after all), then you must NOT give this album a miss. Have to admit that I discovered this album three years late, but it’s arguably the musical gem that I have discovered for 2005.

Of course, speculation on why I chose the lyrics of this particular song is unnecessary and irrelevant, whether it has anything to do with what’s going on in my life. This is because the universal theme of the album is love anyway, a happy or sad ending notwithstanding.

Baladewa!

Oh, and welcome to my new blog!
