1975년 팝,컨트리 보컬리스트인 GLEN CAMPBELL은 그의 커리어에 있어 가장 큰 성공을 거둔 첫 번째 미국 1위곡 'Rhinestone Cowboy' 로 국제적인 명성을 얻게 되었다. 2년 후, 그는 또 다른 골드 앨범이자 두 번째 미국 1위 싱글 음반인 'Southern Nights'로 또 한 번의 큰 성공을 거둔다. 오랫동안 만나 볼 수 없었던 이 뛰어난 앨범은 Jimmy Webb, Brian Wilson, Neil Diamond 그리고 흥미를 자아내는 가수이자 작곡가이며 Campbell의 다음 번 앨범 전체를 작곡하는 Michael Smotherman 등에 의해 작곡되엇다. 본 음반은 잘 알려진 중요한 70년대 앨범을 하나의 디스크로 담았다는 점과 Paul Williams의 'Another Fine Mess' 등과 같이 싱글로부터 세 곡의 보너스 트랙을 담았다는 점에서 주목할 만 하다.(AMG ★★★★☆)
This is what I wanna live for This is where I wanna live To give my life to you and to this feeling That's alive today And never let it go away No matter what this is
This is, and how can I deny it This is, and will not be denied And you don't have to give an explanation For the way you feel I only wanna know it's real No matter what this is
To give my life to you and to this feeling That's alive today And never let it go, never let it go away No matter what this is No matter, no matter what this is It's everything that is
I may not always love you But long as there are stars above you You never need to doubt it I'll make you so sure about it God only knows what I'd be without you
If you should ever leave me Life would still go on, believe me The world could show nothing to me So what good would living do me? And God only knows what I'd be without you
And God only knows what I'd be without you If you should ever leave me Life would still go on, believe me The world could show nothing to me So what good would living do me? God only knows what I'd be without you
God only knows what I'd be without you (repeat to fade)
Sunflower, good morning You sure do make it like a sunny day Sunflower, fair warning I'm gonna love you if you come my way
Now, if there's a chance that romance can find you Better not find you looking the other way Now, isn't it time you finally take it Make it so real it steals your breath away Hey hey hey
Sunflower, good morning You sure do make it like a sunny time Sun morning, good morning And someday, child, I'm gonna make you mine
Well, if there's a chance that romance will find you Better not find you looking the other way Isn't it time you finally take it Make it so good it steals your breath away Hey hey hey
Sunflower, good morning You sure do make it like a sunny time Sunflower, sweet morning For every time I'm gonna make you mine
Moonlight and roses are the goin' thing Champagne, a little love, and a weddin' ring But every time she leaves it's gonna break your heart It's happened before, don't come to me, I don't want no part
Let go, it ain't worth it if it hurts you Let go, you don't need it if-a she don't care Like a good old wine or rock 'n' roll If it feels real good let it move your soul But if it hurts to say her name, baby let go
First time for both of you makes for urgent love It gives a feel that it's all unreal, it's from up above Tellin' some small secrets, dreamin' dreams by phone And terrified there'll be a time she won't be alone
Well let go, it ain't worth it if it hurts you Let go, you don't need it if-a she don't care Like a good old wine or rock 'n' roll If it feels real good let it move your soul But if it hurts to say her name, baby let go
Walk away, leave well alo-one, you know you should To be in love has as much that's bad as it has it's good To counsel friends ain't wise but you sure need to see You should know that before you, she di-id the same to me
Well let me tell ya, let go, it ain't worth it if it hurts you And let go, you don't need it if-a she don't care Like a good old wine or rock 'n' roll If it feels real good let it move your soul But if it hurts to say her name, baby let go
Like a good old wine or rock 'n' roll If it feels real good let it move your soul But if it hurts to say her name, baby let go Like a good old wine or rock 'n' roll If it feels real good let it move your soul But if it hurts to say her name, baby let go, oh-oh (fade)
I have to admit That no-one could love me like you did And there were more laughs Than tears any day Like children at play But somewhere and somehow We lost each other
How high did we go When we loved each other How high did we go When we said we care-hare-are-hared For the first time I'm scared
I have no regrets Lookin' back I hold nothing against you 'Cause I learned to love And that's more than most ever know And I just can't believe That we've lost each other
How high did we go When we loved each other How high did we go When we said we care-hare-are-hare-ared For the first time I'm scare-ared
How high did we go ho ho When we loved each other How high did we go When we said we care-hare-are-hared
Well you can take all of the money that you made and put it in the jar Drag out a map that will show you, is Heaven very far? You take all of the medicine you need 'til ya find out who you are Maybe you can figure why that woman wanna be so cruel But ya, ya just can't forget her, can you fool?
Well those winter nights and the city lights and the crying of the train Everyday is a shade of gray, every memory's a fade And then ya finally use the sense God gave ya to come out of the rain Still you can't figure why that man is got to be so cruel But ya just can't forget him, can you fool?
Oh, love is long and love is hard Love brings lots of pain She was here, now she's gone Lord, bring her back again
Well you can take all of the money that you made and put it in the jar Drag out a map that will show you, is Heaven very far? And you can take all of the medicine you need 'til ya find out who you are Still you can't figure why that man he got to be so cruel But ya just can't forget him, can you fool? No, you just can't forget her, can you fool? Aww, can you fool?
I know you've been in love before I know it some times seems like war but i just want to show you there's no use to hold up those scars anymore
cuz honey im gonna love you and I'm gonna take care of you and i'm gonna love you all our lives you will be needed all your words of wisdom headed and i'm gonna love you all our lives
They say it's pretty in the snow maybe we'll find out if its so we can take a photograph and write underneath the places we wanted to go
If the one you'd think is true ever turns his back on you You've still got a place in my heart If every road you take proves you made a big mistake Baby you've still got a place in my heart If I'm a fool to pray that you'll return some day Well then I'll know of million fools that love has made that way If the years should make you cry don't go on and live a lie Baby you've still got a place in my heart [ strings ] If the years should make you cry...
