Heartshield

Chapter 1

Gue menekan tuts-tuts berwarna hitam dan putih itu. Alunan nada mulai terbentuk.

Last night I heard my own heart beating

Sounded like footsteps on my stairs

Six months gone, I’m still reaching

Even thought I know, you’re not there

Rasa sesak itu datang menghampiri gue. Enam bulan Vander pergi, tapi gue masih suka nyari dia. Berharap dia ada di balkon sebrang kamar gue.

I was playing back a thousand memories baby

Thinking ‘bout everything we’ve been through

Maybe I’ve been going back to much lately

When time stood still, and I had you

Kenangan itu berputar dengan jelas di kepala gue. Seperti rangkaian film lama yang ngga akan pernah bosan untuk gue liat. Kenangan saat gue masih memiliki dia.

Come back come back come back to me here like

You would you would if this was a movie

Kembali, Van. Kembali. Gue ngga mau lu pergi dari gue.

Tapi sayang, hanya di film dalam kenangan gue, lu akan kembali.

Standing in the rain outside till I came out

Ayo, Van. Muncul lagi di bawah balkon gue saat hujan. Waktu lu minta maaf atas segala masa lalu lu.

Come back come back come back to me like

You could you could if you just said you’re sorry

Balik lagi ke sini, Van. Balik kayak waktu lu minta maaf ke gue!

I know that we could work it out somehow

But if this was a movie you’d be here by now

Kalo cuma di film lu akan kembali, gue berharap selamanya tinggal di dunia film, Van.

I know people change and these things happen

But I remember how it was back then

Locked up in your arms and our friends were laughing

Cause nothing like this ever happened to them

Now I’m pacing down the hall, chasing down your street

Flashback to the night when you said to me

Tiap hari, Van. Tiap hari gue kepikiran sama apa yang lu katakan ke gue. Semua itu udah jadi kenangan abadi di memori gue.

Nothings gonna change not for me and you

Not before I knew how much I had to lose

Come back come back come back to me like

You would you would if this was a movie

Standing in the rain outside till I came out

Come back come back come back to me like

You could you could if you just said you’re sorry

I know that we could work it out somehow

But if this was a movie you’d be here by now

If you’re out there, if you’re somewhere, if you’re moving on

I’ve been waiting for you ever since you’ve been gone

Mau dimanapun lu sekarang, gue masih nunggu lu. Gue masih di sini nunggu ada keajaiban supaya lu balik ke sisi gue, Van.

I just want it back the way it was before

And I just wanna see you back at my front door

Gue mau semua kembali. Semuanya. Tanpa terkecuali.

And I say

Come back come back come back to me like

You would before you said it’s not that easy

Before the fight, before I locked you out

But I’d take it all back now

Come back come back come back to me like

You would you would if this was a movie

Standing in the rain outside till I came out

Come back come back come back to me like

You could you could if you just said you’re sorry

I know that we could work it out somehow

But if this was a movie you’d be here by now

You’d be here by now

Gue menghapus air mata yang sedari tadi turun membasahi pipi gue dengan kasar. Gue memeluk diri gue sendiri.

Bahkan seorang playgirl dan heartbreaker sejati kayak gue bakalan tetep kalah sama sebuah lagu dan masa lalu.
