Menikmati kesalahan ini
Kubiarkan hatiku merasa
Sayang dan cinta yang tak pernah berakhir
Untukmu bukan milikku

Aku tahu kau pun merasakan
Hal yang sama ketika ku di sini
Menahan segumpal harapan

Tuk tetap mencoba
Mencintai dirimu

Sudahlah tak apa bagiku
Semuanya bahagia untukmu
Walau ku tak sanggup menepis bayanganmu
Berharap sesuatu terjadi
Ketika kau tak sendiri lagi
Sayang aku akan selalu menantimu

Menahan segumpal harapan
Tuk tetap mencoba
Mencintai dirimu

Mencintai dirimu

Sudahlah tak apa bagiku
Semuanya bahagia untukmu
Walau ku tak sanggup menepis bayanganmu
Berharap sesuatu terjadi (berharap sesuatu terjadi)

Ketika kau tak sendiri lagi
Sayang aku akan selalu ada untukmu
