Lirik

My hands, your hands


Tied up like two ships
Drifting, weightless
Waves try to break it
I'd do anything to save it
Why is it so hard to save it?

My heart, your heart


Sit tight like bookends
Pages between us
Written with no end
So many words we're not saying
Don't wanna wait 'til it's gone
You make me strong

I'm sorry if I say, "I need you"


But I don't care, I'm not scared of love
'Cause when I'm not with you, I'm weaker
Is that so wrong? Is it so wrong
That you make me strong?

Think of how much


Love that's been wasted
People always
Trying to escape it
Move on to stop their heart breaking
But there's nothing I'm running from
You make me strong

I'm sorry if I say, "I need you"


But I don't care, I'm not scared of love
'Cause when I'm not with you, I'm weaker
Is that so wrong? Is it so wrong?

So, baby, hold on to my heart, oh


Need you to keep me from falling apart
I'll always hold on
'Cause you make me strong

I'm sorry if I say, "I need you"


But I don't care, I'm not scared of love
'Cause when I'm not with you, I'm weaker
Is that so wrong? Is it so wrong?

I'm sorry if I say, "I need you"


But I don't care, I'm not scared of love
'Cause when I'm not with you, I'm weaker
Is that so wrong? Is it so wrong?
That you make me...

I'm sorry if I say, "I need you"


But I don't care, I'm not scared of love
'Cause when I'm not with you, I'm weaker
Is that so wrong? Is it so wrong
That you make me strong?
(from "Five Feet Apart" soundtrack)
I will fight
I will fight for you
I always do until my heart
Is black and blue

And I will stay


I will stay with you
We'll make it to the other side
Like lovers do

I'll reach my hands out in the dark


And wait for yours to interlock
I'll wait for you
I'll wait for you

'Cause I'm not givin' up


I'm not givin' up, givin' up
No not yet
Even when I'm down to my last breath
Even when they say there's nothin' left
So don't give up on...

I'm not givin' up


I'm not givin' up, givin' up
No not me
Even when nobody else believes
I'm not goin' down that easily
So don't give up on me

And I will hold


I'll hold onto you
No matter what this world'll throw
It won't shake me loose

I'll reach my hands out in the dark


And wait for yours to interlock
I'll wait for you
I'll wait for you

'Cause I'm not givin' up


I'm not givin' up, givin' up
No not yet
Even when I'm down to my last breath
Even when they say there's nothin' left
So don't give up on...

I'm not givin' up


I'm not givin' up, givin' up
No not me
Even when nobody else believes
I'm not goin' down that easily
So don't give up on me

Whoa, whoa
Whoa, whoa
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah

I will fight
I will fight for you
I always do until my heart
Is black and blue
I told you
My heart's leaning towards you
A little more
Then I knew something
Was scaring you
Is it too much
Or too fast
Or too forward?

Should I step back and pretend


I don't feel this way?

Well I don't wanna tell a lie


I don't wanna have to hide

It's on the line


I've waited for a sign
I see it in your eyes
I know you really feel the same

I need to know if I should raise or fold


My heart is stuck on hold
I wanna know which way to go

I can't love alone


I can't love alone

I tried not to fall so far for you


Now I can't get away from anything you say
You make me feel nervous and stupid
Whenever I tell you I'm tired of playing games
I don't wanna tell a lie
I don't wanna have to hide

It's on the line


I've waited for a sign
I see it in your eyes
I know you really feel the same

I need to know if I should raise or fold


My heart is stuck on hold
I wanna know which way to go

I can't love alone


Oh I can't stay here wonderin' if you want me
If you don't take me, you should leave

It's on the line


I've waited for a sign
I see it in your eyes
I know you really feel the same

I need to know if I should raise or fold


My heart is stuck on hold
I wanna know which way to go

I can't love alone


I can't love alone
I can't love alone
Lagu atau song dalam bahasa Inggris, adalah gubahan seni nada atau suara dalam
suatu urutan, kombinasi, dan hubungan temporal (biasanya diiringi dengan alat musik) untuk
menghasilkan gubahan musik yang mengandung kesatuan dan kesinambungan Lagu
merupakan salah satu cara untuk mengekspresikan emosi dan perasaan dengan cara yang
menyenangkan. Lagu juga dapat menjadi media untuk menyampaikan kritik tentang situasi
yang ada di masyarakat. Nilai moral biasanya tersirat dalam lirik yang dibuat penulis lagu.

Generic structure of song (struktur lagu) Beberapa struktir dari sebuah lagu dalam
bahasa Inggris pada umumnya sebagai berikut:

Intro, bagian awal lagu yang belum terdengar suara penyanyinya hanya instrumen
saja.

Verse atau bait, bagian pengantar ke chorus Bridge, digunakan untuk


menjembatani anatara bagian-bagian lagu. Seperti anatara chorus dengan verse atau
chorus dengan chorus yang modulasi. Nada yang dimainkan pada bridge umumnya sangat
berbeda dengan verse dan chorus.

Chorus, inti pesan atau cerita pada lagu. Menggunakan pola nada yang berbeda
dan lebih enak dibandingkan verse.

Reffrein atau reff hampir sama dengan chorus. Reff biasanya lebih sederhana
dibanding Chorus. Reff bermakna pengulangan. Coda merupakan bagian akhir lagu dengan
nada dan syair menutup lagu.

Berbeda dengan brigde, coda mengambil beberapa lirik dan nada yang sudah ada
sebelumnya.

Struktur tersebut tidak bersifat kaku, jadi tidak semua lagu memiliki struktur yang
tersusun seperti itu. Tapi setiap lagu secara umum pasti memiliki verse, chorus, dan bridge.

Language features of song (ciri kebahasaan lagu) Song atau lagu juga punya ciri
kebahasaan, sebagai beirkut:

Imagery (perumpamaan atau imajinasi) Describes about feelings and emotions,


artinya sebuah lagu biasanya berusaha menggambarkan perasaan yang dirasakan si
penulis.

Rhythm (ritem) Ritme disini digunakan untuk menciptakan mood. Misalnya, apabila
kita sedang bersedih dan mendengarkan lagu dengan ritme slow, maka kita akan terbawa
suasana dengan lagu tersebut. So, rhythm creates mood! Figures of speech (kata kiasan)
Beberapa kata kiasan yang digunakan dalam sebuah lagu misalnya: Metaphor (metafora)
Sekilas memang kedua hal yang dibandingkan tidak berkaitan, tetapi sebenarnya ada
kesamaan antara dua hal tersebut, contohnya:
Time is a thief (waktu adalah pencuri) atau Her hair was silk (rambutnya seperti
sutra).
Simile (kiasan) Suatu hal digambarkan dengan hal yang mirip dengan
menggunakan kata ‘like’ atau ‘as’, contohnya: My love is like a red rose (cintaku seperti
sebuah mawar merah) Hyperbole (hiperbola) Suatu hal digambarkan secara berlebihan,
terkadang menggelitik karena terlalu berlebihan. Misalnya: That math homework took me 8
million years to finish.

Try Again
( Westlife )
[Verse 1] Hush now don't you cry There will be a better day I promise you We can
work it out But only if you let me know What's on your mind

[Pre-Chorus] Baby, you thought it was forever Through any kind of weather But
someday you will find what you're searching for

[Chorus] Try again Never stop believing Try again Don't give up on your love
Stumble and fall Is the heart of it all When you fall down (down) Just try again

[Verse 2] Smile now, let it go Hey, you will never be alone I promise you If you can't
fight the feeling (Oh yeah) Surrender in your heart Remember love will set you free

[Pre-Chorus] Baby, you thought it was forever You would always be together But
someday you will find what you're searching for

[Chorus] Try again Never stop believing Try again Don't give up on your love
Stumble and fall Is the heart of it all When you fall down (down) Just try again

[Bridge] Baby, when a heart is crying Its sometimes feels like dying The teardrops
fall like rain Baby, you thought it was forever You would always be together But someday
you will find what you're searching for
[Chorus] Try again (ooh yeah) Never stop believing (oh no) Try again Don't give up
on your love (don't give up on your love baby) Try again (just try again) Never stop believing
Try again Don't give up on your love Stumble and fall Is the heart of it all When you fall down
Just try again
