Where are you ? I love you . Where are you ? I love you .
Where are you to keep me warm?

I had a dream of a place far away.
I followed a river where the dead man would play.
And I'm leaving in the morning.
And I'm leaving in the morning.
And I won't die, so don't cry. I'll be home.
Those big black diamonds that lie there for me.
By the tall white mountains which lie by the sea.

And you a man who's as tall as the sky
Followed a river where thousands have died.
He was leaving in the morning.
He was leaving in the morning.
If I come home and my women has flown.
Those big black diamonds that lie there for me
By the tall white mountains which lie by the sea
Oh oh oh oh oh
Say goodbye to auld lang syne (repeat and fade)

Bee Gees - First of May
(가사와 해석)




When I was small, and Christmas trees were tall,
we used to love while others used to play.
내가 어릴 적에는 크리마스 트리가 크게 느껴졌지요.
다른친구들이 놀고 있는 동안 우리는 사랑을 나누곤 했지요.

Don't ask me why, but time has passed us by
someone else moved in from far away.
내게 왜냐고 묻지 마세요. 세월은 우리도 모르는 새 흘러 버렸거든요.
누군가가 저 멀리서 이사를 왔거든요.

Now we are tall, and Christmas trees are small,
and you don't ask the time of day.
이제 우리는 자라서 크리스마스 나무가 작게 느껴지네요.
당신은 그 시절에 대해 묻지 않네요.

But you and I, our love will never die,
but guess who'll cry come first of May.
하지만 그대와 난, 우리의 사랑은 영원할거에요.
오월의 첫날이 오면 누가 눈물짓고 있는지 생각해 주세요.

The apple tree that grew for you and me,
I watched the apples falling one by one.
사과나무는 당신과 나를 위해서 자랐났어요.
난 사과가 나무에서 하나씩 떨어지는것을 보았죠.

And I recall the moment of them all,
the day I kissed your cheek and you were gone.
그리고 난 지난 모든 순간들을 회상해요.
당신의 뺨에 입맞춤 하던 날과 당신은 달아났지요.

Now we are tall, and Christmas trees are small,
and you don't ask the time of day.
이제 우리는 자라서 크리스마스 나무가 작게 느껴지네요.
당신은 그 시절에 대해 묻지 않네요

But you and I, our love will never die,
but guess who'll cry come first of May.
하지만 그대와 난, 우리의 사랑은 영원할거에요.
오월의 첫날이 오면 누가 눈물짓고 있는지 생각해 주세요.

When I was small, and Christmas trees were tall,
do do do do do do do do do...
내가 어릴 적에는 크리마스 트리가 크게 느껴졌지요.

Don't ask me why, but time has passed us by,
someone else moved in from far away.
내게 왜냐고 묻지마세요.세월은 우리도 모르는 새 흘러 버렸거든요.
누군가가 저 멀리서 이사를 왔거든요.

Alons, viens encore, cherie.
J'attendrai patiemment sous la lampe dans la vieille avenue.

Then I may end.
She had things to buy.
I close my eyes.
Yet I don't know why.
I gave her money; said she knew someone.
And she said she won't be long.

Lamplight
keep on burning while this heart of mine is yearning.
Lamplight
keep on burning till this love of yours is mine.

I sat alone with my thoughts and laughed .
Then saw your face in an old photograph.
I didn't think that I could live without you but what am I to do ?

Lamplight
keep on burning while this heart of mine is yearning.
Lamplight
keep on burning till this love of yours is mine
Come home again dear.

I have waited year after year under the lamp in our old avenue.
If all in the world that's laughing, why should it make us cry? Ah...

Who is the girl with the crying face
looking at millions of signs?
She knows that life is a running race,
Her face shouldn't show any line.

Melody Fair won't you comb your hair?
You can be beautiful too.
Melody Fair , remember you're only a woman .
Melody Fair, remember you're only a girl. Ah...

Who is the girl at the window pane,
atching the rain falling down?
Melody, life isn't like the rain
its just like a merry go round.

Melody Fair won't you comb your hair?
You can be beautiful too.
Melody Fair, remember you're only a woman.
Melody Fair, remember you're only a girl. Ah...

Who is the girl with the crying face,
looking at millions of signs?

Her face shouldn't show any lines.

Melody Fair won't you comb your hair?
You can be beautiful too.
Melody Fair , remember you're only a woman.
Melody Fair, remember you're only a girl. Ah ....

Fourteenth of February , eighteen ninety-nine,
The British ship Veronica was lost without a sign.
Baa baa black sheep, you haven't any wool.
Captain Richardson left himself a lonely wife in Hull.

Cherub, I lost a ship in the Baltic sea
I'm on an iceberg running free
Sitting, filing this berg to the shape of a ship
Sailing my way back to your lips
One passing ship gave word that
You have moved out of your old flat
You love the Vicar more then words can say
Tell him to pray that I won't melt away
And I'll see your face again

Odessa,
How strong am I?
Odessa,
How time goes by.

Treasure, you know the neighbours that live next door
They haven't got their dog anymore
Freezing, sailing around in the North Atlantic
Can't seem to leave the sea anymore
I just can't understand why you just moved to Finland
You love that Vicar more then words can say
Ask him to pray that I won't melt away
And I'll see your face again

Odessa
How strong am I?
Odessa
How time goes by.

Fourteenth of February, eighteen ninety-nine,
The British ship Veronica was lost without a sign.

Every dog has his day
Another thirty nine inch thick classic (yeah,yeah,yeah,yeah)
Girl, as i sit here thinking to myself
There is no one for you but me, and i mean that
And i think about all the things we've been through
Like arguing and fighting for example
You know the love we have for each other
It tends to out weigh what do to another
Ya know my granddaddy use to always say
Ya know he used to say it like this

[chorus]
There will be, ups and downs, smiles and frowns
Share with me, fairy tales or make believe
There will be, ups and downs, smiles and frowns
Share with me, fairy tales or make believe
There will be, ups and downs, smiles and frowns
Share with me, fairy tales or make believe

Hanging with my homie from the turf, thats young q-ball
Giving me the word from the street, heres the scoop y'all

[verse]
I used to have a lot broads that i doont fool with
I used to have a lot of homeboys i aint cool with
A lotpeople that a nigga used to go to school with
Happy as hell to see the big dog doin it
But what none of them would believe though (what?)
That i would be bigger the kurtis blow
I guess he was right, these are the breaks
Despite my mistakes and aches, im gettin' cake
To realize your fate through faith, (through faith)
Cause we all gonna get that day (for what)
To see if our lives was straight
And to see if we gonna walk through thosse pearly gates (yeah?)
To see the man upstairs, on some real talk homie
Im tires of being stuck here
If i could i would fly to the moon (zoom)
Y'all probably think im trippin off deeze mushrooms (i know)

[chorus]
There will be, ups and downs, smiles and frowns
Share with me, fairy tales or make believe
There will be, ups and downs, smiles and frowns
Share with me, fairy tales or make believe

Smiles and frowns

Now as i think back to the words my granddaddy used to say
I never seen him in church, but he always had the word
He would always tell me! sometimes you gotta take the good with the bad
You gotta do bad in order to do good
