Winters of my life
They've been around so long It's been so cold inside But then again I know I'm all right I'm okay Many roads, many wrong turns No matter where I went My past was always there Used to think all the troubles were meant for me Lots and lots of times When life was hitting harder I never had the strength to stop and say I'm all right I'm okay Many times, many lovers Who never got the chance to love the way I love them Ran away after taking a part of me Many nights, many tears Many dreams, many fears But I came to the end with a smile 'cause I'm all right I'm okay The rains may fall The winds may blow my hopes away But in time I know I can always say I'm all right I'm all right I'm okay |

Bows and flows of angel hair and ice cream castles in the air And feather canyons everywhere, I've looked at clouds that way 활처럼 휜 천사의 머리카락의 흐름 그리고 하늘에 떠있는 아이스크림 성 이곳 저곳으로 날아간 협곡 나는 그렇게 구름을 보고 있었죠 But now they only block the sun they rain and snow on everyone So many things I would have done, but clouds got in my way I've looked at clouds from both sides now From up and down and still somehow 그러나 이제 구름은 태양을 가로 막고 모두에게 비와 눈을 내리게 하는군요 많은 일을 하려 했지만 구름이 앞을 막아 버렸어요 난 구름의 양면을 보았어요 하늘위에서 그리고 땅위에서 It's cloud's illusions I recall I really don't know clouds at all Moons and Junes and ferris wheels the dizzy dancing way you feel As every fairy tale comes real, I've looked at love that way But now it's just another show, you leave 'em laughing when you go And if you care don't let them know, don't give yourself away 하지만 여전히 내가 생각하고 있는 구름은 환상일 뿐 구름이 무엇인지 전혀 알 수 없어요 달과 보석 그리고 수레바퀴가 어지럽게 춤주는 듯 느껴져요 상상의 이야기가 현실이 되듯이 나는 그런식으로 사랑을 생각합니다 하지만 사랑은 또 다른 쇼예요, 당신은 사람을 떠나며 사람을 웃게 합니다 그리고 주의해서 남들이 모르게 하세요. 당신 자신을 내 보내지 마세요 I've looked at love from both sides now From give and take and still somehow It's love's illusions I recall I really don't know love at all Tears and fears and feeling proud, to say, "I love you" right out loud Dreams and schemes and circus crowds, 난 사랑의 양면을 생각하게 되었어요 주고 받는 것에서 그러나 여전히 내가 생각하는 그것은 사랑의 환상입니다 사랑이 무엇인지 진실로 알 수 없어요 눈물과 두려움 그리고 자랑스런 기분, 큰 소리로 "당신을 사랑해요"라고 말하는 것 꿈과 계획 써커스의 군중들. I've looked at life that way But now old friends are acting strange they shake their heads, they say I've changed But something's lost but something's gained in living every day 나는 인생을 그렇게 보고 있어요 그러나 지금 옛 친구들은 이상하게 행동하죠 그들은 머리를 흔들죠 친구들은 내가 변했다고 말해요 그러나 뭔가를 잃었지만 뭔가를 찾았어요 살아있는 나날속에서 I've looked at life from both sides now From win and lose and still somehow It's life's illusions I recall I really don't know life at all. 나는 인생을 양면으로 봅니다 승자와 패자의 면에서 하지만 여전히 내가 돌아보는 인생은 환상이랍니다 인생이 뭔지 정말 모르겠어요 |

Smooth road, clear day
But why am I the only one Trav'ling this way? How strange the road to love should be so easy Can there be a detour ahead? Wake up, slow down Before you crash and break your heart Gullible clown, you fool You're headed in the wrong direction Can't you see the detour ahead? The farther you travel The harder to unravel the web he spins around you Turn back while there's time Can't you see the danger sign? Soft shoulders surround you Smooth road, clear night Oh lucky me, that suddenly I saw the light I'm turning back away from all this trouble Smooth road, smooth road, no detour ahead |

Look at him standing there
All alone in the room It's getting late where's his date Could it be he came alone Elegant, confident, bad as can be If only I could figure why I'm having so much trouble saying Hello haven't I seen you before Just thought I'd say that I want your company A rendezvous for two just me and you C'mon baby talk to me Wish I could tell him what's on my mind What's wrong with me I looked away just to say Goodnight to a friend I turned around but only found Someone else where he had been Mad about losing you So I headed for the door If only I could figure out why He met me on the way and whispered Hello haven't I seen you before Just though I'd say that I want your company A rendezvous for two just me and you C'mon baby talk to me Ooh baby talk to me Will you just talk to me |

I remember nine
As if it were yesterday I can hear my friends outside of my window Say, "Can you come out and play?" Anna brought a bag of her mama's cooking spoons So we could dig a big hole, to try to reach China And get there by early noon Our imaginations soared on golden wings Across a sky filled with dreams Any child could wear a paper crown And be a king or queen at nine I remember days of playing without a care Then coming home with sniffles and clothes hanging off me With leaves in my hair Everybody's child belonged to the neighborhood You could tell your troubles to old Aunt Savannah Cause she always understood Running endless through a field Of emerald green beneath a broad Open sky I will treasure all my days when I was innocent and free at nine Runnin' and jumpin' and skippin' and laughin' Rollin' and shakin' and jokin' and hidin' Mother may I, Simon says, you're it, you spit Hide and seek, you peeked, no I didn't, yes you did You're not fair, I don't care, I saw Sammy's underwear Double dutch, kick ball, hop scotch, bobby socks Mary Mack all dressed in black Who is that? Can she play jacks? I'm the doctor, you're the nurse Whatchu' mean, I was first Shovin' and pushin' Cryin' and screamin' Dreamin' and beamin' and dancin' in a line You show me yours, I'll show you mine Ah uh I'm going home it's dinner time... nine |

Go on and sing my heart
You know it's spring my heart So why not show it Pretend you're glad my heart Although you're sad my heart He mustn't know it Remember love is not an easy game No two hearts ever beat quite the same Go on and dance my heart Our only chance my heart is to forget it Should you despair my heart He'll know you care my heart And we'll regret it It it's to be we soon shall see and If it's not to be no power on earth Can make it so Pretend it's spring my heart Go on and sing my heart For if you sing he'll never know |

You could smile away the storm clouds
Even fill an empty space And it feels just like sunshine baby When that smile lights up your face I'm so glad we're together I can't dream of a better place That I'd rather be Than right here with you loving me With a smile that makes the angels start to sing La la la la la la... La la la la la la... And I know there's no better place That I'd rather be When you hold me close in your arms I can feel your heart beat inside of me I have found my oasis A treasure island in the sea Waves of love and understanding With a smile that captivated me I will cherish the day That you chased all my storm clouds away With your smile |

After hours
While the whole town is sleeping I find my heart keeping a rendezvous With the ghost of you After hours Haunting all the old places I ask the same faces For any news It's the same old blues Someday somewhere I'll find you And I'll keep searching till then Knowing that when I find you I'll start living again So to bed Though my vigil is ending I'll still keep pretending You're with me the rest of my days For I'll keep loving you After hours and always I'll keep loving you After hours and always Someday somewhere I'll find you And I'll keep searching till then Knowing that when I find you I'll start living again So to bed Though my vigil is ending I'll still keep pretending You're with me the rest of my days I'll keep loving you After hours and always I'll keep loving you After hours and always For days and hours and always |

Some other spring Will my heart awake?

Bows and flows of angel hair and ice cream castles in the air And feather canyons everywhere, I've looked at clouds that way 활처럼 휜 천사의 머리카락의 흐름 그리고 하늘에 떠있는 아이스크림 성 이곳 저곳으로 날아간 협곡 나는 그렇게 구름을 보고 있었죠 But now they only block the sun they rain and snow on everyone So many things I would have done, but clouds got in my way I've looked at clouds from both sides now From up and down and still somehow 그러나 이제 구름은 태양을 가로 막고 모두에게 비와 눈을 내리게 하는군요 많은 일을 하려 했지만 구름이 앞을 막아 버렸어요 난 구름의 양면을 보았어요 하늘위에서 그리고 땅위에서 It's cloud's illusions I recall I really don't know clouds at all Moons and Junes and ferris wheels the dizzy dancing way you feel As every fairy tale comes real, I've looked at love that way But now it's just another show, you leave 'em laughing when you go And if you care don't let them know, don't give yourself away 하지만 여전히 내가 생각하고 있는 구름은 환상일 뿐 구름이 무엇인지 전혀 알 수 없어요 달과 보석 그리고 수레바퀴가 어지럽게 춤주는 듯 느껴져요 상상의 이야기가 현실이 되듯이 나는 그런식으로 사랑을 생각합니다 하지만 사랑은 또 다른 쇼예요, 당신은 사람을 떠나며 사람을 웃게 합니다 그리고 주의해서 남들이 모르게 하세요. 당신 자신을 내 보내지 마세요 I've looked at love from both sides now From give and take and still somehow It's love's illusions I recall I really don't know love at all Tears and fears and feeling proud, to say, "I love you" right out loud Dreams and schemes and circus crowds, 난 사랑의 양면을 생각하게 되었어요 주고 받는 것에서 그러나 여전히 내가 생각하는 그것은 사랑의 환상입니다 사랑이 무엇인지 진실로 알 수 없어요 눈물과 두려움 그리고 자랑스런 기분, 큰 소리로 "당신을 사랑해요"라고 말하는 것 꿈과 계획 써커스의 군중들. I've looked at life that way But now old friends are acting strange they shake their heads, they say I've changed But something's lost but something's gained in living every day 나는 인생을 그렇게 보고 있어요 그러나 지금 옛 친구들은 이상하게 행동하죠 그들은 머리를 흔들죠 친구들은 내가 변했다고 말해요 그러나 뭔가를 잃었지만 뭔가를 찾았어요 살아있는 나날속에서 I've looked at life from both sides now From win and lose and still somehow It's life's illusions I recall I really don't know life at all. 나는 인생을 양면으로 봅니다 승자와 패자의 면에서 하지만 여전히 내가 돌아보는 인생은 환상이랍니다 인생이 뭔지 정말 모르겠어요 |

I am an endangered species
But I sing no victim's song I am a woman I am an artist And I know where my voice belongs I am a woman I exist I shake my fist but not my hips My skin is dark my body is strong I sign of rebirth no victim's song I am an endangered species But I sing no victim's song I am a woman I am an artist And I know where my voice belongs They cut out my sex they bind my feet Silence my reflex no tongue to speak I work in the fields I work in the store I type up the deals and I mop the floors I am an endangered species But I sing no victim's song I am a woman I am an artist And I know where my voice belongs My body is fertile I bring life about Drugs, famine, and war, take them back out My husband can beat me his right they say And rape isn't rape you say I like it that way I am an endangered species But I sing no victim's song I am a woman I am an artist And I know where my voice belongs I know where my soul belongs I know where I belong |

I remember nine
As if it were yesterday I can hear my friends outside of my window Say, "Can you come out and play?" Anna brought a bag of her mama's cooking spoons So we could dig a big hole, to try to reach China And get there by early noon Our imaginations soared on golden wings Across a sky filled with dreams Any child could wear a paper crown And be a king or queen at nine I remember days of playing without a care Then coming home with sniffles and clothes hanging off me With leaves in my hair Everybody's child belonged to the neighborhood You could tell your troubles to old Aunt Savannah Cause she always understood Running endless through a field Of emerald green beneath a broad Open sky I will treasure all my days when I was innocent and free at nine Runnin' and jumpin' and skippin' and laughin' Rollin' and shakin' and jokin' and hidin' Mother may I, Simon says, you're it, you spit Hide and seek, you peeked, no I didn't, yes you did You're not fair, I don't care, I saw Sammy's underwear Double dutch, kick ball, hop scotch, bobby socks Mary Mack all dressed in black Who is that? Can she play jacks? I'm the doctor, you're the nurse Whatchu' mean, I was first Shovin' and pushin' Cryin' and screamin' Dreamin' and beamin' and dancin' in a line You show me yours, I'll show you mine Ah uh I'm going home it's dinner time... nine |

I see them smile through faces of people I don't know
I hear them in the music on my radio Wisdom of the winds Faces in the clouds Rhythm of the rains Old mountains standing proud They prepare me for a special place Tell me I've no time to waste Challenge me to face my life's request Encourage me to do my best Everywhere I go in everything I see Flying in the air speaking truth through me I am a curious spirit child Who fell to earth through a crack of lightening But God so kind and merciful sent old souls to guide me home A vow that all betray Old souls walked this land with dignity and grace Consecrated earth it was a sacred place A perfect balance of nature a gift to all the world Still I throw away the oyster just to wear the pearl In my darkest deep depression They give counsel to my soul They open up new meaning And God's power takes control I am a curious spirit child Who fell through a crack of lightening But God so kind and merciful sent old souls to guide me home |

Let me sigh, let me cry
When I'm blue Let me go away from my lonesome town Won't be long till my song will be through And I know I'm on my last go round All the love I could steal, beg or borrow wouldn't ease all of this pain in my soul What is love? But a prelude to sorrow With a heartbreak ahead for your goalHere I go Now you know why I'm leaving Got the blues What can I lose? GoodbyeAll the love I could steal, beg or borrow couldn't ease all of this pain in my soul What is love? But a prelude to sorrow With a heartbreak ahead for your goalHere I go Now you know why I'm leaving Got the blues What can I lose? Goodbye내가 울적할 때면 아쉬움에 눈물 흘리게 해주오 이 외로운 도시를 떠나겠어요 조금 있으면 이 노래는 끝이 나요 지금 이 노래가 마지막이에요내가 얻고, 간청하고, 빌렸던 사랑도 이 모든 영혼의 아픔을 달래지 못해요 사랑? 사랑은 결국 상심으로 다가오는 슬픔의 전주곡일 뿐이에요내가 떠나는 이유를 당신도 이제는 알 거에요 울적한 마음 뿐이에요 더 이상 잃을 것도 없어요 잘 있어요내가 얻고, 간청하고, 빌렸던 사랑도 이 모든 영혼의 아픔을 달래지 못해요 사랑? 사랑은 결국 상심으로 다가오는 슬픔의 전주곡일 뿐이에요내가 떠나는 이유를 당신도 이제는 알 거에요 울적한 마음 뿐이에요 더 이상 잃을 것도 없어요 잘 있어요 |

I've told some dark truths
And I can't keep on lying 'Cos one day I'll find I'm not your hero It's so nice That someone thinks you're special Treat them right That trust in you is precious All the same We make mistakes I've used up a few lives Now I'm afraid of dying 'Cos one day I'll find You're not forgiving It's so nice There's someone to rely on Treat them right That trust in you is precious All the same All the same We make mistakes And I've used up a few lives Oh... |

Tonight you're mine completely
You give your love so sweetly Tonight the light of love is in your eyes But will you still love me tomorrow Is this a lasting treasure Or just a moment's pleasure Can I believe the magic of your sighs Will you still love me tomorrow Tonight with words unspoken You say that I'm the only one But will my heart be broken When the night meets the morning sun I'd like to know that your love Is the love that I can be sure of So tell me now and I won't ask again Will you still love me tomorrow So tell me now and I won't ask again Will you still love me tomorrow Will you still love me tomorrow Will you still love me tomorrow |

Love, I get so lost sometimes
Days pass and this emptiness fills my heart When i want to run away I drive off in my car But whichever way i go I come back to the place you are All my instincts they return And the grand facade so soon will brun Without a noise,witout my pride I reach out from the inside *In your eyes The light the heat I am complete In your eyes I see the doorway to a thousand churches your eyes The resolution of all my fruitless searches I see the light and the heat Oh,I want to be that complete I want to touch the light and The heat i see in your eyes Love, I don't like to see so much pain So much wasted and this moment keeps slipping away I get so tired of working so hard for our survival I look to te time with you to keep me awake and alive And all my instincts,they return And the grand facade,so soon will burn Without a noise,without my pride I reach out from the inside *Repeat In your eyes,In your eyes. |

[Incomprehensible]
It's coming on Christmas They're cutting down trees Putting up reindeer Singing songs of joy and peace Oh I wish I had a river, I could skate away on But it don't snow here, it stays pretty green I'm gonna make a lot of money Then I'm gonna quit this crazy scene I wish I had a river, I could skate away on I wish I had a river so long, I'd teach my feet to fly Wish I had a river, I could skate away on I made my baby cry, he tried hard to please me You know, he put me at ease And he loved me so naughty Made me weak in the knees I need a river, I could skate away on You see I'm so hard to handle I'm selfish and I'm sad Now I've lost the best baby that I, that I ever had Oh, I wish I had a river, I could skate away on Wish I had a river so long, I'd teach my feet to fly Oh, oh oh wish I had a river, I could skate away on My baby said goodbye [Incomprehensible] Oh oh [Incomprehensible] It's coming on Christmas They're cutting down trees Putting up reindeer Singing songs of joy and peace I need a river, I could skate away on Oh Oh oh Oh oh oh |

Dream of a land my soul is from
I hear a hand stroke on a drum Elegant boy Beautiful girl Dancing for joy Elegant whirl Shades of delight Cocoa hue Rich as the night Afro blue Two young lovers dance face to face With undulating grace They gently sway Then slip away To some secluded place Shades of delight Cocoa hue Rich as the night Afro blue Whispering trees Echo their sighs Passionate pleas Tender replies Lovers in flight Upward they glide Burst at the height Slowly subside Shades of delight Cocoa hue Rich as the night Afro blue And my slumbering fantasy assumes reality Until it seems it's not a dream The two are you and me Shades of delight Cocoa hue Rich as the night Afro blue Oh shades of delight Cocoa hue Rich as the night Afro blue |
