Prolog: Spring in London


Ada sesuatu yang ingin kukatakan padamu sejak dulu. Sampai sekarang aku belum mengatakannya karena… yah, karena berbagai alasan. Dan alasannya utamanya adalah karena aku takut.
Kalau aku mengatakannya, reaksi apa yang akan kau berikan?
Apakah kau akan menerima pengakuanku?
Apakah kau akan percaya padaku?
Apakah kau masih akan menatapku seperti ini?
Tersenyum padaku seperti ini?
Atau apakah kau justru akan menjauh dariku?
Meninggalkanku?
Tapi aku tau aku harus mengatakannya padamu. Aku tidak mungkin menyimpannya selamanya. Entah bagaimana reaksimu nanti setelah mendengarnya, aku hanya berharap satu hal padamu.
Jangan pergi dariku.Tetaplah disisiku.

Teardrops On My Guitar

Drew looks at me
I fake a smile so he won't see
What I want and I need
And everything that we should be

I'll bet she's beautiful
That girl he talks about
And she's got everything
That I have to live without


Drew talks to me
I laugh 'cause it's just so funny
I can't even see
Anyone when he's with me

He says he's so in love
He's finally got it right
I wonder if he knows
He's all I think about at night

He's the reason for the teardrops on my guitar
The only thing that keeps me wishing on a wishing star
He's the song in the car I keep singing
Don't know why I do

Drew walks by me
Can he tell that I can't breathe?
And there he goes, so perfectly
The kind of flawless I wish I could be

She better hold him tight
Give him all her love
Look in those beautiful eyes
And know she's lucky 'cause
He's the reason for the teardrops on my guitar
The only thing that keeps me wishing on a wishing star
He's the song in the car I keep singing
Don't know why I do

So I drive home alone
As I turn out the light
I'll put his picture down
And maybe get some sleep tonight

'Cause he's the reason for the teardrops on my guitar
The only one who's got enough of me to break my heart
He's the song in the car I keep singing
Don't know why I do

He's the time taken up but there's never enough
And he's all that I need to fall into
Drew looks at me
I fake a smile so he won't see
