melangkahlah, sayang
turuti kakimu
penuhi asamu
ia akan tahu di mana kau 'kan temukan 'ku

buang ragumu, sayang
kita pasti bertemu
karena 'ku masih menunggu
tanpa ragu

menolehlah, sayang
saat kau sadari aku menanti di seberang

tersenyumlah, sayang
kelak tatap kita bertemu
jangan kau buang

Pada Suatu Hari Nanti - Sapardi Djoko Damono

Pada suatu hari nanti,
Jasadku tak akan ada lagi,
Tapi dalam bait-bait sajak ini,
Kau tak akan kurelakan sendiri.

Pada suatu hari nanti,
Suaraku tak terdengar lagi,
Tapi di antara larik-larik sajak ini.

Kau akan tetap kusiasati,
Pada suatu hari nanti,
Impianku pun tak dikenal lagi,
Namun di sela-sela huruf sajak ini,
Kau tak akan letih-letihnya kucari.

The Icarus Account - The Subway Song

On the train, on my way to the city
you step on
I'm amazed, I have never seen such beauty
You don't hear, you don't care
Or maybe you're just too busy
who's to say
i go unnoticed by you every day

I take my time, making eyes,
even planing out the line
thinking through
cause All that's on my mind today is you

But the stop is too soon
And I'm too shy to make a move
today it wasn't made for me and you

Why is my heart breaking and breaking?
When it was never yours for the taking
And why is my head spinnin' and spinnin'?
When you don't even know I'm existing

Another day, another chance, another opportunity
Should I sing, should I dance
Will you ever notice me
I lean in for a kiss
Then I wake up to a pinch
Today wasn't made for me and you

Why is my heart breaking and breaking?
When it was never yours for the taking
And why is my head spinnin' and spinnin'?
When you don't even know I'm existing
(x2)

And I don't even know your name
But I'm hoping that somehow you feel the same
'Cause I'm going so insane
Wondering, always wondering
If today will be our day
And I don't even know your name
But I'm hoping that you feel the same
And I don't even know your name
Wondering, always wondering
If today will be our day

Why is my heart breaking and breaking?
And why is my head spinnin' and spinnin'?

Why is my heart breaking and breaking?
When it was never yours for the taking
And why is my head spinnin' and spinnin'?
When you don't even know I'm existing
(x2)

And on the train, on my way to the city
When I hear someone speak
I feel my heart pumping every beat
I look up to your face
And I ask you for your name
Today was surely made for you and me

I am wanting to see you everyday,
instead of desperately longing to see you
day by day

I am wanting to see you in the morning
as I open my eyes
I am wanting to caress your greasy dark hair,
kiss you good morning,
and lean on your chest before kicking off the day

I am wanting to daydream about you
after lunch break,
I am wanting to kiss you welcome home after work
I am wanting to lurk under you arms in my sleepless nights

I am wanting you
I am wanting you to obsess with me
as I do with you
