Dedication for Friends

Saya bukan penggemar dari penyanyi ini, saya juga tidak tertarik nonton film dimana lagu ini dijadikan soundtrack. Tapi saya suka lagunya, touchy, dan liriknya kuat, apalagi sekarang-sekarang ini. Setelah memilih suatu keputusan yang menggemparkan beberapa teman saya, dan saya rasa kalau semakin banyak yang tahu, semakin bertambah lagi kegemparan ini, lagu ini terdengar sangat pas. Tema utamanya sih love/cinta, tapi kalau dilihat, liriknya bukan cinta-cintaan yang menye. Bukan cinta yang memabukkan atau membuat kita melayang-layang dan kehilangan kesadaran akan dimana kita berada. Tapi cinta yang konstruktif, yang memberi harapan, dan liriknya lebih condong ke arah pihak yang menerima cinta itu, dan dia sangat berterima kasih untuk itu.

Yah, mungkin saat ini saya hanya bisa mengapresiasi sejauh terima kasih saja, sulit untuk memenuhi harapan yang saat ini ditanggungkan kepada saya. Love you all friends, and I'm so thankful. But really sorry...At least, you, all of you, strengthen me up to face the path that I'll walk into. Mmmm...secara grammar, betulkah tulisan barusan??



Lyrics by Dianne Warren:
For all those times you stood by me
For all the truth that you made me see
For all the joy you brought to my life
For all the wrong that you made right

For every dream you made come true
For all the love I found in you
I'll be forever thankful, baby

You're the one who held me up
Never let me fall
You're the one who saw me through
Through it all

You were my strength when I was weak
You were my voice when I couldn't speak
You were my eyes when I couldn't see
You saw the best there was in me

Lifted me up when I couldn't reach
You gave me faith 'cause you believed
I'm everything I am
Because you loved me, ooh, baby

You gave me wings and made me fly
You touched my hand I could touch the sky
I lost my faith, you gave it back to me
You said no star was out of reach

You stood by me and I stood tall
I had your love, I had it all
I'm grateful for each day you gave me

Maybe, I don't know that much
But I know this much is true
I was blessed because
I was loved by you

You were my strength when I was weak
You were my voice when I couldn't speak
You were my eyes when I couldn't see
You saw the best there was in me

Lifted me up when I couldn't reach
You gave me faith 'cause you believed
I'm everything I am
Because you loved me

You were always there for me, the tender wind that carried me
The light in the dark shining your love into my life
You've been my inspiration through the lies you were the truth
My world is a better place because of you

You were my strength when I was weak
You were my voice when I couldn't speak
You were my eyes when I couldn't see
You saw the best there was in me

Lifted me up when I couldn't reach
You gave me faith 'cause you believed
I'm everything I am
Because you loved me

You were my strength when I was weak
You were my voice when I couldn't speak
You were my eyes when I couldn't see
You saw the best there was in me

Lifted me up when I couldn't reach
You gave me faith 'cause you believed
I'm everything I am
Because you loved me

I'm everything I am
Because you loved me
