That's All

I can only give you love that lasts forever,
And a promise to be near each time you call.
And the only heart I own
For you and you alone
That's all,
That's all...

I can only give you country walks in springtime
And a hand to hold when leaves begin to fall;
And a love whose burning light
Will warm the winter's night
That's all,
That's all.

There are those I am sure who have told you,
They would give you the world for a toy.
All I have are these arms to enfold you,
And a love even time can't destroy.

If you're wondering what I'm asking in return, dear,
You'll be glad to know that my demands are small.
Say it's me that you'll adore,
For now and evermore
That's all,
That's all.

Itulah lagu yang menginspirasi Utami (Tami) istri Pepeng untuk memberi judul bukunya yang berjudul sama, "That's All". Konon lagu ini selalu didengarkan pasangan ini setiap pagi. Bagi Tami lagu ini merupakan bentuk ketulusannya merawat Pepeng yang terserang multiple sclerosis (MS) sejak 2005.
Ia ingin meyakinkan Pepeng bahwa tidak ada yang ia inginkan, kecuali berada di sampingnya, hanya itu (that's all).
Itulah yang saya tangkap setelah menyaksikan mereka di Kick Andy Malam ini.
