Rock And Roll Lullaby

B.J.Thomas- Rock And Roll Lullaby ( Anos 70 )

---

Rock and Roll Lullaby

She was just sixteen and all alone
When I came to be
So we grew up together
My mama child and me
Now things were bad and she was scared
But whenever I would cry
She'd calm my fears and dry my tears
With a rock and roll lullaby

And she would sing sha na na na na na na na...
It will be all right
Sha na na na na na na na ...
Now just hold on tight

Sing it to me mama (mama mama ma)
Sing it sweet and clear, oh!
Mama let me hear that old rock and roll lullaby

Now we made it through the lonely days
But Lord the nights were long
And wed dream of better moments
When mama sang her song
Now I can't recall the words at all
It don't make sense to try
'Cause I just knew lots of love came thru
In that rock and roll lullaby

And she'd sing sha na na na na na na na
It will be all right
Sha na na na na na na na
Now just hold on tight

I can't hear you mama (mama mama ma)
Nothing moves my soul
Like the sound of the good old rock and roll lullaby...

懐かしくかつ心よい青春の思い出

Isn't it time

Boz Scaggs - Isn't It Time (HQ)

Last time this happened
I thought it wouldn't happen anymore
But that was before, and now once again as it happens
Well, why do I listen anymore
Facing the door, I wonder again

(Isn't it time you got the news) Isn't it time you knew
(There's someone else up here with you)
There's someone else, and you can trust in me

Think back and remember
All the disappointments you've been through
Well, I've felt them too and all I can say
Is crazy stories really shouldn't get the best of you
I want you too, so I wouldn't let them

(Isn't it time you got the news) Isn't it time you knew
(There's someone else up here with you)
There's someone else, and you can trust in me

(Isn't it time you got the news) Isn't it time you knew
(There's someone else up here with you)
There's someone else with you
(You can trust in me) It's me

(Isn't it time you got the news) Isn't it time
(There's someone else up here with you)
(You can trust in me) You can trust in me

(Isn't it time you got the news, isn't it time)
(Isn't it time you got the news, isn't it time)
(Isn't it time you got the news, isn't it time)
(Isn't it time you got the news, isn't it time)

 

歌詞は微妙に含みが多すぎて・・

訳しづらいそして「隣には別の男が居るんじゃないか…」
彼女が辛い時を経て、共感できるから、「そういうおかしな話は君らしくないよ。でも…僕のこと信じてもらっていいよ…」なのか…

多分僕をもっと信じて・・・そうすれば・・あんな馬鹿なこと起こることないんだから君を不幸にする昔の話ではないんだよ

一番君にふさわしいのはベストなのは

古い過去の君でなく

君のそばにいるべきは

つまり僕なんだ・・・みたいな感覚なんだと思うけど

この曲のリズムと繰り返される

Isn't it time
You can trust in me

が物語ってる気がします。

僕はなぜだか難解な歌詞以上に心動かされる曲で好きなんです。

僕を信じて・・・婉曲な言い回して

恋心を訴えているボズのバラードのような気がして

何度聞いても心動かされるのです！

Best that you can do

Christopher Cross - Arthur's Theme (Best that you can do)

---

Best that you can do

Once in your life you will find her

一生に一度だけ出会うでしょう

Someone that turns your heart around

心を乱されるような人に

And next thing you know you're closing down the town

気づけば街は夢うつつ

Wake up and it's still with you

目を覚ましてもまだここに

Even though you left her way across town

たとえあの人を遠くに残していても

Wondering to yourself, "Hey, what've I found?

"それで、僕は一体何を見つけたって言うんだ？

When you get caught between the Moon and New York City

ニューヨークと月の間で見つかったら

I know it's crazy, but it's true

あり得ないなんて、言わないで

If you get caught between the Moon and New York City

ニューヨークと月の間で見つかったら

The best that you can do

...... きっと、

The best that you can do is fall in love

きっと、恋に落ちるしかないんだ

Arthur he does as he pleases

アーサー、気の向くままに

All of his life, he's mastered choice

その一生は、ご主人さまの傍で

Deep in his heart, he's just, he's just a boy

でも本当は、ただ、子供なだけ

Living his life one day at a time

昨日でも、明日でもなく、今日という日を生きて

And showing himself a real good time

とびきり楽しいことをしながら

Laughing about the way they want him to be

他人の求める生き方なんて、つまらないから

When you get caught between the Moon and New York City

ニューヨークと月の間で見つかってしまったら

I know it's crazy, but it's true

あり得ないなんて、言わないで

If you get caught between the Moon and New York City

ニューヨークと月の間で見つかってしまったら

The best that you can do

..... きっと、

The best that you can do is fall in love

きっと、恋に落ちるしかないんだ

When you get caught between the Moon and New York City

ニューヨークと月の間で見つかってしまったら

I know it's crazy, but it's true

あり得ないなんて、言わないで

If you get caught between the Moon and New York City

ニューヨークと月の間で見つかってしまったら

The best that you can do

..... きっと

The best that you can do is fall in love

恋に落ちるしかないんだ

昔よく聞きました何だか落ち着くのです。

この曲は・・・たまにはこんな曲も如何？？

我が青春の思い出の曲 ハーベストムーン

Neil Young - Harvest Moon (Live At The Ryman Auditorium)

ニールヤング・・・懐かしくも胸キュンのメロデイ

何年ぶりに聞いたろう・・・青春時代が一瞬蘇る

ギターを抱え夢を持って

お店やライブを、電車で移動していた頃

毎晩の様に曲作りに励んでた・・・・

今は昔の物語

そんな青春の

煌めきを

思い出させてくれる

ニールの

The Glory Of LOVE

Peter Cetera ~ The Glory Of LOVE

 

Tonight it's very clear As we're both lying here.

There's so many things I wanna say.

 I will always love you.

 I would never leave you alone. Sometimes I just forget,

 Say things I might regret. It breaks my heart to see you cryin'.

I don't wanna lose you. I could never make it alone.

I am the man who would fight for your honor.

 I'll be the hero you're dreamin' of.

 We'll live forever Knowing together that we did it all for the glory of love.

You keep me standing tall, You helped me through it all.

I'm always strong when you're beside me. I have always needed you.

I could never make it alone. I am the man who will fight for your honor.

I'll be the hero you been dreamin' of.

We'll live forever Knowing together that we

Did it all for the glory of love.

LIke a knight in shining armor from a long time ago,

Just in time I will save the day,

 Take you to my castle far away.

 I am the man who would fight for your honor.

 I'll be the hero that you're dreamin' of.

 Gonna live forever Knowing together that we

Did it all for the Glory of Love.

 We'll live forever Knowing together that we

 Did it all for the Glory of Love. We did it all for love

We did it all for love. We did it all for love We did it all for love
