here I am, on your photograph
again what kind of place
did you bring me to this time
is it a room so small
but there`s hardly room at all
other peoples rooms are
they cheery are they bright
other peoples lives,
do they always turn out right
do they always look the door
wishing they had someone to open it
for just a little room
of there own and all the music that I play,
is just for the time that
I get to slip away and lost myself
in other peoples rooms.
other peoples rooms,
are they fancy or just plain,
other peoples dreams,
are they really just the same everyone
needs a caller of their won,
everyone needs a place to come home,
just a little room of their own,
and all the music
that I play is just for the times
that I get to slip away,
and lost myself in other peoples rooms
here the music play, in otherf peoples rooms,
all the love
is there, in other peoples rooms,
hear the music play
in other peoples rooms
all the love is there in other peoples rooms

I see her every day but she turns her face away
Her eyes tell me the pain in her heart

Why I ask myself again
"Does she stay with the man who brings her pain?"
But she forgives him just a same

When she cries she comes to me as a friend, just a friend
And I know she loves me as a friend

But if she could know the pain I feel when she goes to him again
The memory still remains

He will greet me with a smile as he does everyday
Questions crying in his eyes I turn away

But comes the night refrain I'll be with her again
Even though I'm just a friend


But comes the night refrain I'll be with you again
Even though I'm just a friend, just a friend

Here I am, on your photograph

Well, I slept last night in the open
Down by a redwood tree
Yes, I slept last night in the open
Just to let, just to let, just to let my soul free

I don't want to know, I don't want to go,
I don't want to go back into the city.
It's just a long long long lonely taxi ride
Going nowhere.

Well, I slept last night in the open
(It gets so hot in the city)
Down by a redwood tree
(It gets so hot in the city)
Yes, I slept last night in the open
Just to let, just to let, just to let my soul free.

I don't want to know, I don't want to go,
I don't want to go back into the city.
It's just a long long long lonely taxi ride
Going nowhere

Lady when you love me I feel home sweet home inside of your
sublime
This garden is sure to grow
You know our love is just like summertime
Parrot's eye the fruit and we make love between a harpsichord
and lutes
Our green limbs intertwine
You know our love is just like summertime
Our souls collide We slip and slide
We feel no pain and where our lives locked together
We weather the wind and rain we flow the farm
We're safe from harm inside this circles of summertime
Both of us know is our love

Love is from the past with poison smiles all pray our love
will never last
But we are trees not vines
You know our love is just like summertime
As the song begins these shipwrecks fade behind a wave of
violins
Vivaldi made us rhyme
You know our love is just like summertime

What I say to my best friend
Can't you see what a mess I'm in
My daddy, he talked me to drink whisky
But my mama, she died from a drinking gin

친구, 내가 무슨 할 말이 있겠어
만신창이가 된 내 꼴을 좀 봐
아버지는 내게 위스키를 마시게 했지
하지만 우리 어머니는 술 때문에 돌아 가셨어

My brother, he works in a coal mine
Works so hard, get his pay
My sister, she believes in sweet Lord Jesus
And she's waiting for redemption day

남동생은 광산에서 일을 해
열심히 일을 해서 급료를 받지
하느님을 믿는 내 여동생은
속죄의 날을 기다리고 있어

What am I living for
Why am I living
Why am I giving all my life
to bring up the family, children and wife
Tell me my friend
Hasn't that been done before

삶의 목적이 뭘까
나는 왜 사는 걸까
자식과 아내를 부양하려
인생을 모두 바치는 이유가 뭘까
친구, 말해 봐
그런 건 이미 다 해왔던 거잖아

I remember my first job
I was singing with the band
Every payday came around
I take my money from the man

첫 직장이 생각나
밴드에서 노래를 불렀지
월급날이 오면
사장한테 가서 돈을 받았어

He said "Now spend it wisely, boy
Or save it while you have the time"
But I could drunk on a stand
And I blew the bag
Now I'm standing
in the unemployment line

사장이 말했어 "돈은 현명하게 써야 해
아니면 기회가 있을 때 저축을 하든가"
하지만 나는 바에서 술에 취했고
지갑을 텅 비우고 말았지
그리고 이제 나는
직장을 구하려 줄을 서 있어

What am I living for
Why am I living
Why am I giving all my life
to bring up the family, children and wife
Tell me my friend
Hasn't that been done before

삶의 목적이 뭘까
나는 왜 사는 걸까
자식과 아내를 부양하려
인생을 모두 바치는 이유가 뭘까
친구, 말해 봐
그런 건 이미 다 해왔던 거잖아

I had me a sweet woman, mine
Until the sun don't shine
I came home one morning early
And I found her with a friend of mine

내게도 여자가 있었어
태양이 비치기 전까진 말이야
어느날 아침 일찍 집에 와보니
그녀가 내 친구와 함께 있더군

It's not so much I needed her
But oh god, how to stay away
Packing my bag and I hit the road
And I've never seen her to this day

그녀를 그토록 원했던 건 아니었어
하지만 어떻게 그녀를 떠나 보낼까
나는 짐을 싸서 길을 떠났고
그 후 다시는 그녀를 보지 못했어

What am I living for
Why am I living
Why am I giving all my life
to bring up the family, children and wife
Listen my friend
It's all been done before

삶의 목적이 뭘까
나는 왜 사는 걸까
자식과 아내를 부양하려
인생을 모두 바치는 이유가 뭘까
친구, 내 말 좀 들어 봐
그런 건 이미 다 해왔던 거잖아
