All my bags are packed, I'm ready to go
I'm standing here outside your door I hate to wake you up to say goodbye But the dawn is breaking, it's early morn The taxi's waiting, he's blowin' his horn Already I'm so lonesome I could die So kiss me and smile for me Tell me that you'll wait for me Hold me like you'll never let me go 'Cause I'm leaving on a jet plane Don't know when I'll be back again Oh babe, I hate to go There's so many times I let you down So many times I've played around I tell you now, they don't mean a thing Every place I go, I'll think of you Every song I sing, I'll sing for you When I come back, I'll bring your wedding ring So kiss me and smile for me Tell me that you'll wait for me Hold me like you'll never let me go 'Cause I'm leaving on a jet plane Don't know when I'll be back again Oh babe, I hate to go Now the time has come to leave you One more time, let me kiss you Close your eyes, I'll be on my way Dream about the days to come When I won't have to leave alone About the times I won't have to say Oh, kiss me and smile for me Tell me that you'll wait for me Hold me like you'll never let me go 'Cause I'm leaving on a jet plane Don't know when I'll be back again Oh babe, I hate to go But I'm leaving on a jet plane Don't know when I'll be back again Oh babe, I hate to go |

Almost heaven, West Virginia
Blue Ridge Mountains, Shenandoah River Life is old there, older than the trees Younger than the mountains, growing like a breeze Country roads, take me home to the place I belong West Virginia, Mountain Mama Take me home, country roads All my memories gather 'round her Miner's lady, stranger to blue water Dark and dusty, painted on the sky Misty taste of moonshine, teardrop in my eye Country roads, take me home to the place I belong West Virginia, Mountain Mama Take me home, country roads I hear her voice, in the mornin' hour she calls me The radio reminds me of my home far away And drivin' down the road, I get a feelin That I should have been home yesterday, yesterday Country roads, take me home to the place I belong West Virginia, Mountain Mama Take me home, country roads Country roads, take me home to the place I belong West Virginia, Mountain Mama Take me home, country roads Take me home, (down) country roads Take me home, (down) country roads |

Lost and alone on some forgotten highway
Travelled by many remembered by few Lookin' for something that I can believe in Lookin' for something that I'd like to do with my life There's nothin' behind me and nothin' that ties me To somethin' that might have been true yesterday Tomorrow is open and right now it seems to be more Than enough to just be here today And I don't know what the future is holdin' in store I don't know where I'm goin', I'm not sure where I've been There's a spirit that guides me, a light that shines for me My life is worth the livin', I don't need to see the end Sweet, sweet surrender Live, live without care Like a fish in the water Like a bird in the air Sweet, sweet surrender Live, live without care Like a fish in the water Like a bird in the air Lost and alone on some forgotten highway Travelled by many remembered by few Lookin' for something that I can believe in Lookin' for something that I'd like to do with my life There's nothin' behind me and nothin' that ties me To somethin' that might have been true yesterday Tomorrow is open and right now it seems to be more Than enough to just be here today And I don't know what the future is holdin' in store I don't know where I'm goin', I'm not sure where I've been There's a spirit that guides me, a light that shines for me My life is worth the livin', I don't need to see the end Sweet, sweet surrender Live, live without care Like a fish in the water Like a bird in the air Sweet, sweet surrender Live, live without care Like a fish in the water Like a bird in the air Sweet, sweet surrender Live, live without care Like a fish in the water Like a bird in the air Sweet, sweet surrender Live, live without care Like a fish in the water Like a bird in the air |

On the road of experience,
I'm trying to find my own way. Sometimes I wish that I could fly away. When I think that I'm moving, Suddenly things stand still. I'm afraid 'cause I think they alway will. And I'm looking for space, And to find out who I am. And I'm looking to know and understand. It's a sweet, sweet dream. Sometimes I'm almost there. Sometimes I fly like an eagle And sometimes I'm deep in despair. All alone in the universe, Sometimes that's how it seems. I get lost in the sadness and the screams. Then I look in the center, Suddenly everything's clear. I find myself in the sunshine and my dreams. And I'm looking for space, And to find out who I am. And I'm looking to know and understand. It's a sweet, sweet dream. Sometimes I'm almost there. Sometimes I fly like an eagle And sometimes I'm deep in despair. On the road of experience, Join in the living day. If there's an answer, It's just that it's just that way. When you're looking for space, And to find out who you are. When you're looking to try and reach the stars. It's a sweet, sweet, sweet dream. Sometimes I'm almost there. Sometimes I fly like an eagle And sometimes I'm deep in despair. Sometimes I fly like an eagle. Like an eagle I go flying High. |

There's a storm across the valley
Clouds are rolling in The afternoon lies heavy On your shoulders There's a truck out on the four lane A mile or more away And the whining of his wheels Just makes it colder He's an hour away from riding On his prayers up in the sky And ten days on the road Are barely gone Like a fire softly burning Supper's on the stove It's the light in your eyes That keeps him warm Chorus Hey it's good to be back home again Sometimes this old farm Feels like a long lost friend Yes, and hey it's good to be back home again There's all the news to tell him How you've spent your time And what's the latest thing the neighbors say And your mother called last Friday Sunshine made her cry And you felt the baby move just yesterday (Repeat chorus then) (Bridge) And all the time that I can lay this tired old body down To feel your fingers feather soft upon me The kisses that I live for The love that lights my way The happiness that living with you brings me It's the sweetest thing i know of Just spending time with you It's the little things that make a house a home Like a fire softly burning, supper's on the stove And it's the light in your eyes that makes me warm (Repeat chorus then) (Tag) I said hey it's good to be back home again... |

Annie's song
애니를 위한 노래 - John Denver - You fill up my senses. Like a light in the forest. Like the mountains in spring time. Like a walk in the rain. Like a storm in the dessert. Like a sleepy blue ocean. You fill up my senses. Come fill me again. Come let me love you. Let me give my love to you. Let me drown in you laughter. Let me die in your arms. Let me lay down beside you. Let me always be with you. Come let me love you. Come love me again. Let me give my love to you. Come let me love you. Come love me again. You fill up my senses. Like a light in the forest. Like the mountains in spring time. Like a walk in the rain. Like a storm in the dessert. Like a sleepy blue ocean. You fill up my senses. Come fill me again. 당신은 내 마음을 풍요롭게 해 줍니다 숲속에서 맞이하는 밤처럼 봄날의 포근한 산처럼 빗속을 거니는 산책처럼 사막의 폭풍우처럼 잔잔한 푸른 바다처럼 당신은 내 마음을 풍요롭게 해 줍니다 와서 내 마음을 채워 주세요 당신을 사랑하겠어요 내 인생을 당신에게 바치겠어요 당신의 웃음 소리로 내 근심 걱정을 잊고 싶어요 당신의 품 안에서 죽게 해주세요 당신 옆에 몸을 누이고 싶어요 당신과 언제나 함께 있고 싶어요 당신을 사랑하겠어요 그대여 나를 사랑해 주세요 당신에게 나의 사랑을 바치게 하세요. 당신을 사랑하겠어요 그대여 나를 사랑해 주세요 당신은 내 마음을 풍요롭게 해 줍니다 숲속에서 맞이하는 밤처럼 봄날의 포근한 산처럼 빗속을 거니는 산책처럼 사막의 폭풍우처럼 잔잔한 푸른 바다처럼 당신은 내 마음을 풍요롭게 해 줍니다 와서 다시 내 마음을 채워 주세요 |

Lady, are you crying, do the tears belong to me
Did you think our time together was all gone Lady, you've been dreaming, I'm as close as I can be And I swear to you our time has just begun Close your eyes and rest your weary mind I promise I will stay right here beside you Today our lives were joined, became entwined I wish that you could know how much I love you Lady, are you happy, do you feel the way I do Are there meanings that you've never seen before Lady, my sweet lady, I just can't believe it's true And it's like I've never, ever loved before (Chorus) Lady, are you crying, do the tears belong to me Did you think our time together was all gone Lady, my sweet lady, I'm as close as I can be And I swear to you our time has just begun |

It's funny how you sound as if you're right next door
When you're really half a world away I just can't seem to find the words I'm looking for To say the things that I want to say I can't remember when I felt so close to you It's almost more than I can bear And though I seem a half a million miles from you You are in my heart and living there And the moon and the stars are the same ones you see It's the same old sun up in the sky And your voice in my ear is like heaven to me Like the breezes here in old Shanghai There are lovers who walk hand in hand in the park And lovers who walk all alone There are lovers who lie unafraid in the dark And lovers who long for home Oh, I couldn't leave you even if I wanted to You're in my dreams and always near And especially when I sing the songs I wrote for you You are in my heart and living there And the moon and the stars are the same ones we see It's the same old sun up in the sky And your face in my dreams is like heaven to me Like the breezes here in old Shanghai Shanghai breezes, cool and clearing, evening's sweet caress Shanghai breezes, soft and gentle, remind me of your tenderness And the moon and the stars are the same ones we see It's the same old sun up in the sky And your love in my life is like heaven to me Like the breezes here in old Shanghai And the moon and the stars are the same ones we see It's the same old sun up in the sky And your love in my life is like heaven to me Like the breezes here in old Shanghai Just like the breezes here in old Shanghai |

Usually in the morning
I'm filled with sweet belonging And Everything is beautiful to see Even when it's raining The sound of heaven singing Is simply joyful music to me Sometimes I feel like a sad song Like I'm all alone without you So many different places A million smiling faces Life Is so incredible to me Especially to be near you And how it is to touch you Oh, paradise was made for you and me Sometimes I feel like a sad song Like I'm all alone without you I know that life goes on just perfectly Everything is just the way that it should be Still there are times when my heart feel like breaking And anywhere is where I'd rather be Oh, and in the nighttime I know that it's the right time To hold you close and tell you I love you so To have someone to share with And someone I can care with And that is why I wanted you to know Sometimes I feel like a sad song Like I'm all alone without you Without you. |

Of course we have our differences You shouldn't be surprised It's as natural as changes In the seasons and the skies Sometimes we grow together Sometimes we drift apart A wiser man than I might know The seasons of the heart And I'm walking here beside you In the early evening chill A thing we've always loved to do I know we always will We have so much in common So many things we share That I can't believe my heart When it implies that you're not there Love is why I came here in the first place Love is now the reason I must go Love is all I ever hoped to find here Love is still the only dream I know So I don't know how to tell you It's difficult to say I never in my wildest dreams Imagined it this way But sometimes I just don't know you There's a stranger in our home When I'm lying right beside you Is when I'm most alone And I think my heart is broken There's an emptiness inside So many things I've longed for Have so often been denied Still I wouldn't try to change you There's no one that's to blame It's just some things that mean so much And we just don't feel the same Love is why I came here in the first place Love is now the reason I must go Love is all I ever hoped to find here Love is still the only dream I know True love is still the only dream I know Words and music by John Denver |

I caught a ride on the dreamland express last night,
I was sailing on an ocean of blue. When right there by my side, much to my surprise was you. I said, come on over here baby, let me look in your eyes, let me see the very heart of you. And I couldn't believe it, to conceive that my dream would come true. Cause you said, hey there, sweet daddy, everything is all right. For miles there's not a telephone line. There's not a soul to disturb us, don't be nervous, just come and be mine. You said, let me be the end of your rainbow, let me be the stars up above. Let me be the one that you long for, darling, let me be the one that you love, oh, let me be the one that you love. And now it's four in the morning, honey, I can't sleep. I can't seem to get you out of my mind. I keep tossing and turning, yearning for the sun to shine. I'd like to send you a ticket on the dreamland express, and take you far away with me. I've got a vision of heaven and you're living there with me. Honey, let me be the end of your rainbow, let me be the stars up above. Let me be the one that you long for, darling, let me be the one that you love, oh, let me be the one that you love. |

Perhaps love is like a resting place, a shelter from the storm
It exists to give you comfort, it is there to keep you warm And in those times of trouble when you are most alone The memory of love will bring you home Perhaps love is like a window, perhaps an open door It invites you to come closer, it wants to show you more And even if you lose yourself and don't know what to do The memory of love will see you through Love to some is like a cloud, to some as strong as steel For some a way of living, for some a way to feel And some say love is holding on and some say letting go And some say love is everything, and some say they don't know Perhaps love is like the ocean, full of conflict, full of pain Like a fire when it's cold outside, thunder when it rains If I should live forever, and all my dreams come true My memories of love will be of you Love to some is like a cloud, to some as strong as steel For some a way of living, for some a way to feel And some say love is holding on and some say letting go And some say love is everything, and some say they don't know |

There are children raised in sorrow
On a scorched and barren plain There are children raised beneath the golden sun There are children of the water And children of the sand And they cry out through the universe Their voices raised as one I want to live I want to grow I want to see I want to know I want to share what I can give I want to be I want to live Have you gazed out on the ocean Seen the breaching of a whale? Have you watched the dolphins frolic in the foam? Have you heard the song the humpback hears five hundred miles away Telling tales of ancient history of passages and home? I want to live I want to grow I want to see I want to know I want to share what I can give I want to be I want to live For the worker and the warrior the lover and the liar For the native and the wanderer in kind For the maker and the user and the mother and her son I am looking for my family and all of you are mine We are standing all together Face to face and arm in arm We are standing on the threshold of a dream No more hunger no more killing No more wasting life away It is simply an idea And I know its time has come I want to live I want to grow I want to see I want to know I want to share what I can give I want to be I want to live |

Sunshine on my shoulders makes me happy
Sunshine in my eyes can make me cry Sunshine on the water looks so lovely Sunshine almost always makes me high If I had a day that I could give you I'd give to you the day just like today If I had a song that I could sing for you I'd sing a song to make you feel this way Sunshine on my shoulders makes me happy Sunshine in my eyes can make me cry Sunshine on the water looks so lovely Sunshine almost always makes me high If I had a tale that I could tell you I'd tell a tale sure to make you smile If I had a wish that I could wish for you I'd make a wish for sunshine for all the while Sunshine on my shoulders makes me happy Sunshine in my eyes can make me cry Sunshine on the water looks so lovely Sunshine almost all the time makes me high Sunshine almost always... |

He was born in the summer of his 27th year
Coming home to a place he'd never been before He left yesterday behind him, you might say he was born again You might say he found a key for every door When he first came to the mountains, his life was far away On the road and hanging by a song But the string's already broken and he doesn't really care It keeps changin' fast and it don't last for long It's the Colorado Rocky Mountain high I've seen it raining fire in the sky The shadows from the starlight are softer than a lullaby Rocky Mountain high (Colorado) Rocky Mountain high (high in Colorado) He climbed cathedral mountains, he saw silver clouds below He saw everything as far as you can see And they say that he got crazy once and he tried to touch the sun And he lost a friend but kept the memory Now he walks in quiet solitude, the forests and the streams Seeking grace in every step he takes His sight is turned inside himself to try and understand The serenity of a clear blue mountain lake And the Colorado Rocky Mountain high I've seen it raining fire in the sky Talk to God and listen to the casual reply Rocky Mountain high (high in Colorado) Rocky Mountain high (high in Colorado) Now his life is full of wonder but his heart still knows some fear Of the simple things he cannot comprehend Why they try to tear the mountains down to bring in a couple more More people, more scars upon the land In the Colorado Rocky Mountain high I've seen it raining fire in the sky I know he'd be a poorer man if he never saw an eagle fly Rocky Mountain high The Colorado Rocky Mountain high I've seen it raining fire in the sky Friends around the campfire and everybody's high Rocky Mountain high (high in Colorado) Rocky Mountain high (high in Colorado) Rocky Mountain high (high in Colorado) Rocky Mountain high (high in Colorado) Rocky Mountain high (high in Colorado) Rocky Mountain high (high in Colorado) |

To sail on a dream on a crystal clear ocean
To ride on the crest of a wild raging storm To work in the service of life and the living In search of the answers to questions unknown To be part of the movement and part of the growing Part of beginning to understand Aye, Calypso, the places you've been to The things that you've taught us, the stories you tell Aye, Calypso, I sing to your spirit The men who have served you so long and so well Like the dolphin who guides you, you bring us beside you To light up the darkness and show us the way For though we are strangers in your silent world To live on the land we must learn from the sea To be true as the tide and free as the wind swell Joyful and loving in letting it be Aye, Calypso, the places you've been to The things that you've shown us, the stories you tell Aye, Calypso, I sing to your spirit The men who have served you so long and so well Aye, Calypso, the places you've been to The things that you've shown us, the stories you tell Aye, Calypso, I sing to your spirit The men who have served you so long and so well |

Artist: John Denver
Album: The Best of John Denver Song: On The Wings Of A Dream Yesterday I had a dream about dying About laying to rest and then flying How the moment at hand is the only thing We really own And I lay in my bed and I wonder After all has been said and is done for Why is it thus we are here And so soon we are gone Is this life just a path to the place That we all have come from Does the heart know the way And if not, can it ever be found In a smile or a tear or a prayer Or a sigh or a song And if so, then I sing for my father And in truth you must know I would rather He were here by my side We could fly on the wings of a dream To a place where the spirit would find us And the joy and surrender would bind us We are one anyway Anyway we are more than we seem There are those who will lead us Protect us each step of the way From beginning to end For each moment forever each day Such a gift has been given It can never be taken away (Instrumental) Though the body in passing must leave us There is one who remains to receive us There are those in this life Who are friends from our heavenly home So I listen to the voices inside me For I know they are there just to guide me And my faith will proclaim it is so We are never alone From the life to the light From the dark of the night to the dawn He is so in my heart He is here he could never be gone Though the singer is silent There still is the truth of the song In the song Yesterday I had a dream about dying About laying to rest and then flying How the moment at hand is the only thing We really own And I lay in my bed and I wonder After all has been said and is done for Why is it thus we are here And so soon we are gone Oh, why is it thus we are here And so soon we are gone |

This old guitar taught me to sing a lovesong,
showed me how to laugh and how to cry, introduced me to some friends of mine, and brightened up some days, it helped me make it through some lonely nights, oh, what a friend to have on a cold lonely night. This old guitar gave me my lovely lady, it opened up her eyes and ears to me, it brought us close together, I guess it broke her heart, but it opened up the space for us to be, what a lovely place, a lovely space to be. This old guitar gave me my life my living, and all the things I know I love to do, to serenade the stars that shine from a sunny mountain side, most of all to sing my songs for you, ooh, I love to sing my songs for you, yes I do,Lord, I love to sing my songs for you. |
