Cat Stevens--Father And Son Lyrics

it's 12 p.m, still wake up after watching 'radio pirate'@hbo...this song is one of the soundtracks...its a film with full of friendship art :)

Father
It's not time to make a change,
Just relax, take it easy.
You're still young, that's your fault,
There's so much you have to know.
Find a girl, settle down,
If you want you can marry.
Look at me, I am old, but I'm happy.

I was once like you are now, and I know that it's not easy,
To be calm when you've found something going on.
But take your time, think a lot,
Why, think of everything you've got.
For you will still be here tomorrow, but your dreams may not.

Son
How can I try to explain, when I do he turns away again.
It's always been the same, same old story.
From the moment I could talk I was ordered to listen.
Now there's a way and I know that I have to go away.
I know I have to go.

Father
It's not time to make a change,
Just sit down, take it slowly.
You're still young, that's your fault,
There's so much you have to go through.
Find a girl, settle down,
If you want you can marry.
Look at me, I am old, but I'm happy.

(Son-- Away Away Away, I know I have to
Make this decision alone - no)

Son
All the times that I cried, keeping all the things I knew inside,
It's hard, but it's harder to ignore it.
If they were right, I'd agree, but it's them They know not me.
Now there's a way and I know that I have to go away.
I know I have to go.

(Father-- Stay Stay Stay, Why must you go and
Make this decision alone?)

lewat 37 tahun

3 juli kmaren 37 tahun umurku sudah...lengkaplah kehilangan teman terbaik lainnya yg dipanggil menghadapnya dg sakit yang hanya 5 hari...tiba2 panas tinggi minggu pagi, masuk HCU dg gangguan nafas berat, masuk ICU senin pagi, kamis siang wafat.

Terlibat penelusuran penyebab kematian bapak 61 tahun itu...banyak belajar darinya untuk berteman dengan penjahat sadis sampe orang idealis...suatu ketika dia bertanya kenapa kamu mau berteman dg saya, pdhl saya kan bajingan...aku cuma bilang kadar kemanusiaan orang itu gak keliatan dr penampilan, tapi dari kebaikan yang disemai...aku termasuk yg dapat semaian kebajikan itu.

Dia lah tebengan paling setia, yang bisa antar jemput aku pas hamil, anter belanja sampe liputan ke pelosok, sampe cek bukaan ke rumah sakit...kalo hari hujan, motor dititip, jadilah nebeng sampe rumah di mobilnya...

Sulit mengungkapkan kebaikannya padaku, hanya tuhan bisa membalasnya dg jalan lempang di alam barzah n akhirat...

Sedih...sampe akhirnya perasaan tragis terasa pas tau dia ada kontak dg unggas 4 hari sblm sakit...ikut melepaskan burung2 gereja sbg simbol seremoni sosialisasi KB di sebuah stasiun kereta...begitu tamparan itu dibuat...sejak akhir 2005, terlibat isu flu burung nyatanya tak bisa menolong teman baiknya sendiri hik hiikkksss

Gak ada guna menyesal. Semua udah takdir memang. Cuma berjanji menhgembalikan budi baiknya kepada anak2 n istrinya sekarang.

Ulang tahun setahun ini kehilangan 2 orang berharga dalam hidup. Mengingatjan hidup hanya 'mampir ngombe'. Jadi musti buru2 meluruskan hal prinsip bekal akhirat...

Hubby dengan surprise-nya memastikan mau beli rumah di depok, supaya kami bisa bersama2 terus. Karena hidup ini singkat, kesibukan hubby bertambah. Kasian badan kalo musti. Nyetir bolal balik saban akhir pekan.

Dia bilang rumah itu hadiah buat ultahku kali ini. Semoga jadi awal barengan terus setiap hari. Jadi berkah. Amiin.
