Come away with me in the night
Come away with me
And I will write you a song

Come away with me on a bus
Come away where they can't tempt us
With their lies


Hujan. Turun seraya menyalakan lagu bernada pure melankolis ciptaan Tuhan. Sambil mengingatkan keterbatasan kita dibanding yang diatas, Hujan ato Rain selalu menciptakan suasana sendu yang membuat kita sadar akan kebutuhan kita akan kehangatan. Gak heran kalo banyak orang yang bilang Hujan itu romantis. Dari Rhytm of the Rain nya Jason Donovan, Blame it on the Rainnya Milli Vanilli, November Rain nya Guns N' Roses sampe Gentle Rainnya Diana Krall.

Di luar kamar gue masi hujan. Tidak deras juga tidak gerimis. Just nice to set a romantic setting. Sementara di dalem kamar, Norah Jones mendesah dengan lirik lirik romantisnya. Gue lebih milih kata mendesah dibanding menyanyi saking melankolisnya si Norah Jones ini nyanyiin lagu lagunya. Coba aja denger Come Away With Me dari album yang titelnya sama. Pelan, sendu, dengan nada yang cenderung datar sepanjang lagu. Norah sendiri punya kualitas suara yang bener bener cocok ama lagu begini. Suaranya pelan seperti mendesah, pasrah memohon pada cintanya.

I want to walk with you
On a cloudy day
In fields where the yellow grass grows knee-high
So won't you try to come


Come away with me and we'll kiss
On a mountaintop
Come away with me
And I'll never stop loving you


Liriknya sederhana dan gak seperti omong kosong gombal (macem lagu Boyband) yang rasanya kaya Milo di kasi gula sakarin sampe manis banget. Sederhana tapi nada nada jazz yang dicampur sedikit soul itu ngasih kekuatan "menghangatkan" pada liriknya. Perhatikan deskripsi Norah pada dua suasana romantis yang dia ceritakan di dua bait lirik. Bayangkan sambil dengerin nada yang ngalun dari piano di lagu. MMm it would be not on a mountain top tapi top of the world. Especially when you do a slow dance with someone that you care so much.

And I want to wake up with the rain
Falling on a tin roof
While I'm safe there in your arms
So all I ask is for you
To come away with me in the night
Come away with me


Deskripsi berikutnya lebih menghangatkan suasana. Seperti banyak orang yang menggunakan rain sebagai penambah elemen romantis, Norah juga menggunakan deskripsi hujan untuk memberi kesan butuh akan "safe feeling". A simple romantic lyrics combine with a music that blends elements of jazz, soul, country, and folk-pop in a warm, unselfconscious amalgam, and erases musical boundaries in the process. Wow. A perfect song to provide the romantic feeling needed by anyone.
