Dulu, menemukan lagu ini tanpa sengaja di YouTube. Dasarnya pengagum Keira, makanya ketika melihat namanya muncul dalam salah satu video yang direkomendasikan di sisi kanan, aku segera memutarnya. Lagunya enak banget. Dan, suaranya lumayan bagus kok―tak bisa dikatakan jelek.

Rupanya, lagu ini merupakan soundtrack dari film Begin Again yang dibintangi Keira Knightley, Mark Ruffalo, dan Adam Levine. Lagu ini juga ada yang versi Adam Levine, tapi aku lebih senang mendengarkan versinya Keira. Judulnya Lost Stars. Liriknya yang keren ditulis oleh Gregg Alexander, Danielle Brisebois, Nick Lashley, dan Nick Southwood.

Di sini niatku memang bukan untuk menulis, hanya ingin sharing lagu. Jadi, tanpa banyak ngomong lagi, langsung simak videonya saja...


Please don’t see just a girl caught up in dreams and fantasies.
Please see me reaching out for someone I can see.
Take my hand, let’s see where we wake up tomorrow.
Best laid plans; sometimes are just a one night stand.
I’d be damned; Cupid’s demanding back his arrow.
So let’s get drunk on our tears and…

God, tell us the reason youth is wasted on the young.
It’s hunting season and this lamb is on the run.
Searching for meaning…
But are we all lost stars trying to light up the dark?

Who are we? Just a speck of dust within the galaxy.
'Woe is me' if we're not careful turns into reality.
Don’t you dare let all these memories bring you sorrow.
Yesterday I saw a lion kiss a deer.
Turn the page; maybe we’ll find a brand new ending.
Where we’re dancing in our tears and…

God, tell us the reason youth is wasted on the young.
It’s hunting season and this lamb is on the run.
We’re searching for meaning…
But are we all lost stars trying to light up the dark?

I thought I saw you out there crying…
I thought I heard you call my name…
I thought I heard you out there crying…
We’re just the same…

God, tell us the reason youth is wasted on the young.
It’s hunting season and this lamb is on the run.
We’re searching for meaning…
But are we all lost stars trying to light up the dark?
Are we all lost stars trying to light up the dark?
