블루스를 사랑한 기타리스트이자 싱어송라이터 CHRIS REA! 영국의 브루스 스프링스틴이라 불리며 매혹적인 목소리와 에릭 클랩튼과 견줄 정도로 뛰어난 음악성을 갖추며 상당한 매니아 층을 확보한 그가 데뷔 30주년을 기념하여 베스트 앨범으로 다시 돌아왔다. 그를 일약 스타로 만들어준 ‘FOOL’과 뛰어난 기타 선율이 돋보이는 ‘STAINSBY GIRL’등이 수록되어 있는 이 앨범은 화려하지는 않지만 평온하고 감성적인 그의 기타 톤과 블루스적인 색채가 짙게 깔려 있어 그의 팬은 물론 블루스의 향수를 느끼고 싶은 우리 마음을 설레게 하고 있다. .... ....
There's rain on my window But I'm thinking of you Tears on my pillow But I will come through Josephine, I'll send you all my love And every single step I take I take for you Josephine
There's a storm on my radar But I can still fly And you are the reason The blue in my sky Josephine
A life without meaning I was walking away In the coldest of winters Night becomes day Josephine, I'll send you all my love And every single step I take I take for you Josephine
Between the eyes of love I call your name Behind the guarded walls I used to go Upon a summer wind there's a certain melody Takes me back to the place that I know Down on the beach
The secrets of the summer I will keep The sands of time will blow a mystery No-one but you and I Underneath that moonlit sky Take me back to the place that I know On the beach
Forever in my dreams my heart will be Hanging on to this sweet memory A day of strange desire And a night that burned like fire Take me back to the place that I know On the beach
A dying flame, you're free again Who could love and do that to you All dressed in black, he won't be coming back Save your tears, you've got years and years The pains of seventeen's Unreal they're only dreams Save your crying for the day
Fool if you think it's over 'Cos you said goodbye Fool if you think it's over I'll tell you why New born eyes always cry with pain At the first look at the morning sun You're a fool if you think it's over It's just begun
Miss teenage dream, such a tragic scene He knocked your crown and ran away First wound of pride and how you cried and cried But save your tears you've got years and years
Fool if you think it's over 'Cos you said goodbye Fool if you think it's over I'll tell you why (Fool if you think it's over) (Fool if you think it's over)
I'll buy your first good wine We'll have a real good time Save your crying for the day That may not come but anyone Who had to pay would laugh at you and say
Fool if you think it's over 'Cos you said goodbye Fool if you think it's over I'll tell you why
Some girls used to kiss and run And never knew what they had done Some girls always wasted time They keep you hanging on the line Some loved horses and always stayed at home But a Stainsby girl loved the Rolling Stones.
Now some had games that you had to play Making rules along the way Strange attractions newly found Pride and passion kicked around Some girls stole your heart Like most girls do But a Stainsby girl she could break it in two.
And I fell in love, I fell in love I fell in love yeah I fell in love with a Stainsby girl.
Deepest water Stainsby blue Running straight and running true Names and faces fade away Memories here to stay Some girls steal your heart Most still do But a Stainsby girl she could break it in two.
And I fell in love, I fell in love I fell in love yeah I fell in love with a Stainsby girl.
When you sing of the joy only love can bring Heaven knows it's in my heart and my soul Caught in a world full of tears So many bad times and fears So while there's a chance and you're near
Let's dance Let's dance
There's a world far away from the one we see There's a dream I will never let go One thing is certainly true This moment's for me and for you So while there's not a thing that we can do
Someday My peace will come Oh I know My peace will come I will sleep like a child without pain Without fear Like a smile in the afternoon sun Oh someday My peace will come Lord can you hear me Oh I know you know my name It's written in the tears That flow from my pain
Broken hearted broken soul All my life on the run But someday Yeah someday My peace will come Someday My peace will come
Beat up soul Looking to find a smile Ain't nobody here to give you the reason why I need the wings of an angel Need to find me a way to fly
Come on and dance with me baby Dancing my blues away Yeah dance with me baby Dance 'til my blues can't stay Come on and dance with me baby Dancing my blues away
There is something worth knowing Written behind those eyes Well I've got tears by the truckload Let's laugh 'til they all run dry Let's steal the wings from those angels And kiss what we know goodbye
Come on and dance with me baby Dancing my blues away Yeah dance with me baby Dance 'til my blues can't stay Come on and dance with me baby Dancing my blues away
Take care of the way he's smiling You can see so easily The Devil's in him deep deep down Oh that man's got the baddest blood you'll see When he smiles you got to pray He stays that way and don't mad Cos there ain't no good inside him He was born bad
Oh the maddest dog he fears him And his woman she looks so sad She knows he was born bad He was born bad Oh yeah he was born bad
Don't you look for a little piece that's good Thinking you can't save his soul Don't you ever try to trust him Or for sure he'll take control And when he smiles you got to pray He stays that way and don't mad Cos there ain't no good inside him He was born bad
Oh the maddest dog he fears him And his woman she looks so sad She knows he was born bad He was born bad He was born bad
Oh the maddest dog he fears him And his woman she looks so sad She knows he was born bad He was born bad He was born bad
Sometimes there are no words To set you free Sometimes you have to let it go And let it be Sometimes there is only A deep ocean blue And a wave above An endless sea
Take off on your sails And let the wind take you Take you where she pleases Where she goes Sometimes, sometimes, sometimes
Sometimes all you had Seemed lost forever Sometimes nothing you can do can make a change Sometimes all there is, is deep blue ocean One pair of footprints is all that remains
Take off on your sails And let the wind take you Take you where she pleases Where she goes Sometimes, sometimes, sometimes
