25 Minutes

Boy I've missed your kisses all the time but this is
Twenty five minutes too late

Sudah jadi ‘ritual’ setiap hari Rabu pagi untuk stay tune di @motion975fm. Kurang lebih sama rasanya dengan selalu sarapan di warung nasi uduk yang sama. Bukan apa-apa, kalau bukan soal rasa mana mau saya datang kembali, over and over. Hal itulah yang membuat ‘ritual’ pagi ini selalu penuh arti *halah. Radioshow #SapaPagi bertajuk #GURIH975 alias ‘Lagu Perih’ yang bertagline: lagu-lagu penuh isi yang membuat kosong selalu sukses membuat Rabu pagi menjadi slowly moving. 

Saya suka radioshow ini karena memutarkan lagu-lagu perih yang hits dan favorit. Contoh, sebut saja ‘Right Here Waiting’, ‘Heaven Knows’, ‘How Do You Heal a Broken Heart’, bahkan ‘Tenda Biru’ sekalipun. I love how memories find a way to be remind as a past glorious moment.
 

Belakangan, saya perhatikan bahwa lagu jagoan dari Michael Learns To Rock yang judulnya “25 Minutes” (siapa sih yang gak kenal ini lagu? *angkatan tua*) selalu masuk playlist. Barangkali, lagu ini adalah lagu kenangan yang punya banyak makna bagi beberapa orang. Sehingga, maklum saja kalau ’25 Minutes’ selalu main setiap Rabu pagi.

Untuk saya, ’25 Minutes’ ini adalah sebuah lagu untuk keterlambatan yang berujung pada penyesalan. Kalau kata Kahitna: “kau datang, mengapa terlambat? Saat aku baru jadi dengannya...”. So, if you love somebody, please tell her your feelings. Don’t wait until the time passed. Don’t wait until she standing in front of the church. 

Once upon a time, i used to feel this way. I can deeply feel how’s the feeling of the poor boy. To see her in front of the church. To hear her crying by saying a note of goodbye. To deeply broken when realized that it was too late to tell her. It happened when I saw her standing in front of the wedding stage. With her man, of course! No other words than “She looks so happy in her wedding dress.” That’s been my facebook status for the day.
 

I can still hear her say... Gimana gak perih coba?

 

25 Minutes

After some time 

I've finally made up my mind
She is the girl and I really want to make her mine
I'm searching everywhere to find her again
To tell her I love her
And I'm sorry 'bout the things I've done

I find her standing in front of the church
The only place in town where I didn't search
She looks so happy in her wedding dress
But she's crying while she's saying this

Boy I've missed your kisses all the time but this is
Twenty five minutes too late
Though you traveled so far boy I'm sorry your are
Twenty five minutes too late

Against the wind I'm going home again
Wishing me back to the time when we were more than friends

But still I see her in front of the church
The only place in town where I didn't search
She looked so happy in her wedding dress
But she cried while she was saying this

Boy I've missed your kisses all the time but this is
Twenty five minutes too late
Though you traveled so far boy I'm sorry your are
Twenty five minutes too late

Out in the streets
Places where hungry hearts have nothing to eat
Inside my head
Still I can hear the words she said

Boy I've missed your kisses all the time but this is
Twenty five minutes too late
Though you traveled so far boy I'm sorry your are
Twenty five minutes too late

I can still hear her say.......
