About the song
Sempat is about being completely in love and refusing to say it out loud. It opens with a meeting under a late afternoon sun, and a feeling that keeps growing while it is being held back. The chorus gives the game away: distracted, blushing, unable to keep a straight face, wanting to say something charming and not managing a word. In between, the song turns into a kind of prayer, asking for the doubt to lift and for enough courage to walk over and speak. The questions keep coming. Is this real? Does she feel it too? The Moonless never answer. That is the joke of the song, and also what makes it lovable.
Lyrics
Lama tak jumpa
Sejak pertama
Bertemu di bawah surya
Senja
Menahan rasa
Beban di dada
Perlahan timbul rasa
Asmara
Oh Tuhan hilangkanlah ragu di dalam diriku
Ya Tuhan berikanlah rasa percaya diriku agar bisa mendekatinya
Sempat terganggu
Sempat tersipu
Melihatmu ku tak kuasa
Menahan
Rasanya
Ingin merayu
Menjadikanmu kekasihku
Hilangkan raguku
Apakah cinta
Terasa nyata
Disaat kita duduk
Berdua
Apakah ada
Rasa di dada
Yang timbul juga pada
Dirinya
Oh Tuhan jadikanlah dia kekasih setia
Apakah masih ada sisa harapan untuk ku berikan jalan di hatinya
Sempat terganggu
Sempat tersipu
Melihatmu ku tak kuasa
Menahan
Rasanya
Ingin merayu
Menjadikanmu kekasihku
Hilangkan raguku
Sempat terganggu
Sempat tersipu
Melihatmu ku tak kuasa
Menahan
Rasanya
Ingin merayu
Menjadikanmu kekasihku
Hilangkan raguku
