Don't you know what's wrong with me? I'm seeing things I don't want to see. Sniffing things that ain't no good for me. I'm going down fast, won't you say a prayer for me?
It's got to get better in a little while. It's got to get better in a little while. It's got to get better in a little while. It's got to get better in a little while.
The sun's got to shine on my guitar someday.
Revolution all across the land.
Just like sly, you got to take a stand. Please don't hurt nobody, don't knock them down; Give them a helping hand to get off the ground.
Chorus
The sun's got to shine on my guitar someday.
Still one thing that you can do; Fall down on your knees and pray. I know the lord's gonna answer you. Don't do it tomorrow, do it today.
Tell the truth. Tell me who who,s been fooling you ? Tell the truth. Who's been fooling who?
There you sit there, looking so cool While the whole show is passing you by. You better come to terms with your fellow men soon, cause..
The whole world is shaking now. Can,t you feel it ? A new dawn is breaking now. Can,t you see it ?
Chorus
It doesn't matter just who you are, Or where you're going or been. Open your eyes and look into your heart.
The whole world is shaking now. Can't you feel it ? A new dawn is breaking now. Can't you see it ? I said see it, yeah, can't you see it? Can't you see it,yeah, can't you see it ? I can see it , yeah.
Chorus
Hear what i say, 'cause every word is true. You know i wouldn't tell you no lies. Your time's coming, gonna be soon, boy.

Bet you didn't think I knew how to rock 'n' roll Oh, I got the boogie-woogie right down in my very soul There ain't no need for me to be a wallflower 'Cause now I'm living on blues power
I knew all the time but now I'm gonna let you know I'm gonna keep on rocking, no matter if it's fast or slow Ain't gonna stop until the twenty-fifth hour 'Cause now I'm living on blues power
Talking to you, now The boogie's gonna pull me through Keep on, keep on, keep on keeping on Keep on keeping on, keep on keeping on
Have you ever loved a woman So much you tremble in pain? Have you ever loved a woman So much you tremble in pain? And all the time you know She bears another man's name.
But you just love that woman So much it's a shame and a sin. You just love that woman So much it's a shame and a sin. But all the time you know She belongs to your very best friend.
Have you ever loved a woman And you know you can't leave her alone? Have you ever loved a woman And you know you can't leave her alone? Something deep inside of you Won't let you wreck your best friend's home.
I'm drifting and drifting, just like a ship out on the sea. I'm drifting and drifting, just like a ship out on the sea. Well I ain't got nobody in this world to care for me.
If my baby would only take me back again. If my baby would only take me back again. I would feel much better, darling, and at least I'd have a friend.
I give you all my money, tell me what more can I do. I give you all my money, tell me what more can I do. You is a sweet little girl but I swear you won't be true.
I'm drifting and drifting, just like a ship out on the sea. I'm drifting and drifting, just like a ship out on the sea. Because I ain't got nobody in this world to care for me.
If I could reach the stars pull one down for you Shine it on my heart so you could see the truth That this love I have inside is everything it seems But for now I find It's only in my dreams If I can change the world I would be the sunlight in your universe You would think my love was really something good Baby if I could change the world
If I could be king even for a day I'd take you as my queen I'd have no other way And our love will rule in this kingdom we have made 'Til then I'll be a fool wishing for the day If I can change the world I would be the sunlight in your universe You would think my love was really something good Baby if I could change the world Baby if I could change the world
If I can change the world I would be the sunlight in your universe You would think my love was really something good Baby if I could change the world Baby if I could change the world Baby if I could change the world
Would you konw my name if I saw you in heaven? 나를 천국에서 만난다면 내 이름을 알수있겠니? Would it be the same if I saw you in heaven? 나를 천국에서 만난다면 지금과 같은 모습일까? I must be strong and carry on 난 강인하게 삶을 계속 살아 가야겠어 Cause I know I don't belong here in heaven 난 이 천국에 있을 수 없다는 걸 알고 있으니까
Would you hold my hand if I saw you in heaven? 천국에서 널 만나면 내 손을 잡아 주겠니? Would you help me stand if I saw in heaven? 천국에서 널 만나면 내가 버틸 수 있도록 도와주겠니? I'll find my way through night and day 난 언제나 내 길을 찾아나가야 겠지 Cause I know Ijust can't stay here in heaven 난 이 천국에 있을 수 없다는 걸 알고 있으니까
Time can bring you down. Time can bend your knees 세월은 널 굴복시킬 수 있고,무릎 꿇게 할 수도 있어 Time can break your heart Have you Begging please 마음의 상처도 입히고,애원하고 간청하게 할 수도 있지 Begging please 애원하거라
Beyond the door, there's a peace, I'm sure 저 문 밖에는 평화가 있을거라 확신해 And I know there'll be no more tears in heaven 그리고 더이상 천국에서 흘리는눈물도 없을 거라고 Would you konw my name if I saw you in heaven? 내가 너를 천국에서 만난다면 너는 내 이름을 알까? Would it be the same if I saw you in heaven? 내가 너를 천국에서 만난다면 지금과 같을까?
I must be strong and carry on 난 강인하게 삶을 계속 살아 가야겠어 Cause I know I don't belong here in heaven 난 이 천국에 있을 수 없다는 걸 알고 있으니까 Would you hold my hand if I saw you in heaven? 천국에서 널 만나면 내 손을 잡아 주겠니? Would you help me stand if I saw in heaven? 천국에서 널 만나면 내가 버틸 수 있도록 도와주겠니?
It's late in the evening She's wondering what clothes to wear She puts on her makeup And brushes her long blonde hair And then she asks me Do I look all right And I say yes, you look wonderful tonight
We go a party And everyone turns to see This beautiful lady That's walking around with me And then she asks me Do you feel all right And I say yes, I feel wonderful tonight
I feel wonderful Because I see the love light in your eyes And the wonder of it all Is that you just don't realize How much I love you
It's time to go home now And I've got an aching head So I give her the car keys She helps me to bed And then I tell her As I turn out the light I say my darling, you were wonderful tonight Oh my darling, you were wonderful tonight
What'll you do when you get lonely And nobody's waiting by your side You've been running and hiding much too long You know it's just your foolish pride Layla you've got me on my knees Layla I'm begging darling please Layla darling won't you ease my worried mind I tried to give you consolation When your old man had let you down Like a fool I fell in love with you Turned my whole world upside down Layla you've got me on my knees Layla I'm begging darling please Layla darling won't you ease my worried mind Let's make the best of the situation Before I finally go insane Please don't say we'll never find a way And tell me all my love's in vain Layla you've got me on my knees Layla I'm begging darling please Layla darling won't you ease my worried mind
Thinkin' 'bout the times you drove in my car. Thinkin' that I might have drove you too far. And I'm thinkin' 'bout the love that you laid on my table.
I told you not to wander 'round in the dark. I told you 'bout the swans, that they live in the park. Then I told you 'bout our kid, now he's married to Mabel.
Yes, I told you that the light goes up and down. Don't you notice how the wheel goes 'round? And you better pick yourself up from the ground Before they bring the curtain down, Yes, before they bring the curtain down.
Talkin' 'bout a girl that looks quite like you. She didn't have the time to wait in the queue. She cried away her life since she fell off the cradle.
Bet you didn't think I knew how to rock 'n' roll. Oh, I got the boogie-woogie right down in my very soul. There ain't no need for me to be a wallflower, 'Cause now I'm living on blues power. I knew all the time but now I'm gonna let you know: I'm gonna keep on rocking, no matter if it's fast or slow. Ain't gonna stop until the twenty-fifth hour, 'Cause now I'm living on blues power. First Verse Talking to you, now. The boogie's gonna pull me through. Keep on, keep on, keep on keeping on. Keep on keeping on, keep on keeping on
Get up; get your man a bottle of red wine. Get up; get your man a bottle of red wine. I can't get up out of bed With this crazy feeling in my head. Get up; get your man a bottle of red wine.
Get up; get your man a bottle of red wine. Get up; get your man a bottle of red wine. You hear what I say? Gonna love you anyway. Get up; get your man a bottle of red wine.
I went to an all-night get together And everyone I knew was there. Had the love that would last forever. Everywhere I looked, I saw you standing there.
Get up; get your man a bottle of red wine. Get up; get your man a bottle of red wine. I can't get up out of bed With this crazy feeling in my head. I said get up right now, oh oh. I said get up right now. Feel so bad this morning; got a terrible headache in my head. Do me a favor, baby, do me a favor please. Please get up; get your man a bottle of red wine. Get up, get up; get your man a big big bottle of red wine.
에릭 클랩턴의 The Cream of Clapton이라는 제목의 베스트 앨범 수록곡.
크림부터 시작해서 이런 저런 밴드할 때의 곡들을 간추려 나온 건데
길게 말하면 입 아픈 곡들만 잔뜩 있다.
White room은 예전에 일본 영화 식스티 나인 때 인상적으로 나왔던 곡인데
그 때 한참 듣다가 안 들었다. 오늘 힘 쓰는 일 좀 하다가 들었더니...
에릭 클랩턴의 완전 소중한 앨범인 461 Ocean Boulevard 수록곡.이 앨범 정말 좋은데. 몇 장 없는 에릭 클랩턴 씨디 중 하나인데이걸 얼마전에 친구 차 안에서 듣고 있다가(참고로 그 친구 취향은 마룬5)이 곡 진짜 좋지 않냐~ 이랬다가 째림 당했다. ㅎㅎ정말 좋은데. 하핫.원래 내 기억으로는 주중에 올라온 사연에 있...
말이 필요없는 에릭 클랩턴이 로버트 존슨에게 경의를 표하는 뜻에서 만든 앨범Me and Mr.Johnson 수록곡.요즘 나는 이렇게 됐다. 흑인 음악과 팝을 접고70-80년대 록앤롤 밴드들과 블루스 음악을 들이파기 시작했다.그러니까 재즈로 흘러갔다가 다시 또 이렇게 됐네.그러다 보니 항상 손에 걸리는 것은 에릭 클랩턴.어딜...
