21 Lagu Sedih Barat yang Enak Didengar, Cocok Buat yang Lagi Galau

8. Someone Like You – Adele

Ini adalah lagu sedih barat yang bisa dibilang benar-benar menyakitkan. Kisah di lagu ini berbicara tentang kisah Adele (penulis lagu) yang tiba-tiba harus bertemu mantan terindahnya.

Layaknya hubungan percintaan, kisah tersebut harus berakhir karena Adele dan mantannya tidak menemukan kecocokan satu sama lain.

Namun, sepertinya perpisahan itu disesali. Karena setelah ia berpisah Adele baru sadar bahwa mantannya itu sangat berarti dalam hidupnya. Penyesalan memang tidak pernah datang di awal.

Untuk mengekspresikan kehilangannya, Adele pun kemudian menulis lagu sedih barat ini.

Lirik lagu Someone Like You:

I heard that you’re settled down
That you found a girl and you’re married now.
I heard that your dreams came true.
Guess she gave you things I didn’t give to you.

Old friend, why are you so shy?
Ain’t like you to hold back or hide from the light.

I hate to turn up out of the blue uninvited
But I couldn’t stay away, I couldn’t fight it.
I had hoped you’d see my face and that you’d be reminded
That for me it isn’t over.

Never mind, I’ll find someone like you
I wish nothing but the best for you too
Don’t forget me, I beg

I’ll remember you said,
“Sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes it hurts instead,
Sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes it hurts instead”

You know how the time flies
Only yesterday was the time of our lives
We were born and raised
In a summer haze
Bound by the surprise of our glory days

I hate to turn up out of the blue uninvited
But I couldn’t stay away, I couldn’t fight it.
I’d hoped you’d see my face and that you’d be reminded
That for me it isn’t over.

Never mind, I’ll find someone like you
I wish nothing but the best for you too
Don’t forget me, I beg

I’ll remember you said,
“Sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes it hurts instead.”

Nothing compares
No worries or cares
Regrets and mistakes
They are memories made.
Who would have known how bittersweet this would taste?

Never mind, I’ll find someone like you
I wish nothing but the best for you
Don’t forget me, I beg
I’ll remember you said,
“Sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes it hurts instead”.

Never mind, I’ll find someone like you
I wish nothing but the best for you too
Don’t forget me, I beg

I’ll remember you said,
“Sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes it hurts instead,
Sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes it hurts instead.”

Lirik lagu The Scientist:

Come up to meet you, tell you I’m sorry
You don’t know how lovely you are

I had to find you
Tell you I need you
Tell you I set you apart

Tell me your secrets
And ask me your questions
Oh, let’s go back to the start

Running in circles
Coming up tails
Heads on a science apart

Nobody said it was easy
It’s such a shame for us to part
Nobody said it was easy
No one ever said it would be this hard

Oh, take me back to the start

I was just guessing
At numbers and figures
Pulling the puzzles apart

Questions of science
Science and progress
Do not speak as loud as my heart

Tell me you love me
Come back and haunt me
Oh, and I rush to the start

Running in circles
Chasing our tails
Coming back as we are

Nobody said it was easy
Oh, it’s such a shame for us to part
Nobody said it was easy
No one ever said it would be so hard

I’m going back to the start

Oh

10. Jealous – Labrinth

Lagu sedih barat ini bercerita tentang rasa pilu yang dirasakan seseorang, ketika kekasih yang pergi meninggalkannya akhirnya menemukan kebahagiaan.

Kesan melankolis makin kuat melalui nuansa minimalis dalam musik yang ada di lagu ini. Sebab di sini lebih banyak menonjolkan denting piano dan gesekan biola.

Lirik lagu Jealous:

I’m jealous of the rain
That falls upon your skin
It’s closer than my hands have been
I’m jealous of the rain

I’m jealous of the wind
That ripples through your clothes
It’s closer than your shadow
Oh, I’m jealous of the wind

‘Cause I wished you the best of all this world could give
And I told you when you left me
There’s nothing to forgive

But I always thought you’d come back
Tell me all you found was heartbreak and misery
It’s hard for me to say
I’m jealous of the way
You’re happy without me

I’m jealous of the nights
That I don’t spend with you
I’m wondering who you lay next to
Oh, I’m jealous of the nights

I’m jealous of the love
Love that was in here
Gone for someone else to share
Oh, I’m jealous of the love

‘Cause I wished you the best of all this world could give
And I told you when you left me
There’s nothing to forgive

But I always thought you’d come back
Tell me all you found was heartbreak and misery
It’s hard for me to say
I’m jealous of the way
You’re happy without me

As I sink in the sand
Watch you slip through my hands
Oh, as I die here another day
‘Cause all I do is cry behind this smile

I wished you the best of all this world could give
And I told you when you left me
There’s nothing to forgive

But I always thought you’d come back
Tell me all you found was heartbreak and misery
It’s hard for me to say
I’m jealous of the way
You’re happy without me

It’s hard for me to say
I’m jealous of the way
You’re happy without me
