귀에 익숙한 올드 팝 음반이다 싶으면 늘 상 들어있는 BARCLAY JAMES HARVEST의 새로운 앨범 NEXUS. 하모니카를 비롯한 어쿠스틱한 악기들이 들려주는 이번 앨범은, 노래를 들으면 들을수록 묻어나는 편안함과 올드함이 묻어나는 곡들! 반복적인 리프들이 세련미를 느끼게 해줌으로서 앨범 전체의 분위기를 빈틈없이 채워준다. 그 중에서 ‘LOVING IS EASY’는 12곡 중에서도 골수 팬들에게 유독 많은 사랑을 받는 곡으로서 완성도가 아주 높은 곡으로 평가 되고 있다. .... ....
When I was just a child My world it was so small The empty playground swings The corner shop, the penny drinks The backyard walls Of a brave new world And as the years passed by I never thought to try And memorise the dreams The childhood fantasies The backyard walls Of a brave new world
Hey, Suzanne, won't you come out to play? Well the moon is bright and this weather's fine And there's something I've got to say Hey, Suzanne, won't you come out to play? Well my mama told me and I know she's right That the blackest day's when the nations fight Remember to pray when you go to bed For what mama said Bow your head For a brave new world
Now I'm twenty-four My small world's closed the door I feel like I should cry Death's desperation lies on every eye In the brave new world
Hey, Suzanne, won't you come out to play? Well the moon is bright and the weather's fine And there's something I've got to say Hey, Suzanne, won't you come out to play? Well my mama told me and I know she's right That the blackest day's when the nations fight Remember to pray when you go to bed For what mama said Bow your head For a brave new world
Now I'm old and grey And life has passed my way My tears have all run dry I've seen men born to kill and born to die For a brave new world For a brave new world It's such an old, old world
Rain, sea, surf, sand, clouds and sky Hush now baby, don't you cry There's a mocking bird Singing songs in the trees There's a mocking bird Singing songs Just for you and me Rain, sea, surf, sand, clouds and sky Time will see your tears run dry There's a mocking bird Singing songs in the trees There's a mocking bird Singing songs Just for you and me
Rain, sea, surf, sand, clouds and sun Bless the tears of love now gone There's a mocking bird Singing songs in the trees There's a mocking bird Singing songs Singing just for me...
Valley's deep and the mountain's so high If you want to see God you've got to move on the other side You stand up there with your head in the clouds Don't try to fly you know you might not come down Don't try to fly, dear God, you might not come down
Jesus came down from Heaven to earth The people said it was a virgin birth Jesus came down from Heaven to earth The people said it was a virgin birth
He told great stories of the Lord And said he was the saviour of us all He told great stories of the Lord And said he was the saviour of us all
For this they/we killed him, nailed him up high He rose again as if to ask us why Then he ascended into the sky As if to say in God alone you soar As if to say in God alone we fly.
Valley's deep and the mountain's so high If you want to see God you've got to move on the other side You stand up there with your head in the clouds Don't try to fly you know you might not come down Don't try to fly, dear God, you might not come down
The long and winding road that leads to your door Here comes the sun it's alright people shout for more But were you trying to deceive telling me All you need is love to succeed Across the universe one after nine 'o' nine I got a feeling for you blue and I feel fine I tried so hard to make believe that I'd see All you need is love to succeed
CHORUS:
Lady Madonna let it be Something in the way you moved me yesterday All you need is love so they say
Even the bad times are good when you're round Darlin', you kiss away all my blues Even the hard times are easy to face 'Cause I know that your love will come through. You light up my flame, then you drive me insane There ain't nothing that you cannot do Then you grab for my heart, you just tear it apart As I shoot all my love into you: Lovin' is easy with both eyes closed You know that's the best way to feel it Lovin' is easy with both eyes closed Just get a hold and watch how it grows. Now even the bad times are good when you're round Darlin', you kiss away all my blues. Even the hard times are easy to face 'Cause I know that your love will come through. You light up my soul, and then fill up the whole Of your being, your love, your desire Then you grab for my heart you just tear it apart As I shoot all my love in your fire Lovin' is easy
