Burt Bacharach [작곡가, 피아니스트]

A chair is still a chair
Even when there's no one sitting there
But a chair is not a house
And a house is not a home
When there's no one there to hold you tight,
And no one there you can kiss good night.

A room is still a room
Even when there's nothing there but gloom;
But a room is not a house,
And a house is not a home
When the two of us are far apart
And one of us has a broken heart.

Now and then i call your name
And suddenly your face appears
But it's just a crazy game
When it ends it ends in tears.

Darling, have a heart,
Don't let one mistake keep us apart.
I'm not meant to live alone. turn this house into a home.
When i climb the stair and turn the key,
Oh, please be there still in love with me.

What's it all about, Alfie?
Is it just for the moment we live?
What's it all about when you sort it out, Alfie?
Are we meant to take more than we give
Or are we meant to be kind?

And if only fools are kind, Alfie
Then I guess it's wise to be cruel
And if life belongs only to the strong, Alfie
What will you lend on an old golden rule?
As sure as I believe there's a heaven above, Alfie
I know there's something much more
Something even non-believers can believe in

I believe in love, Alfie
Without true love we just exist, Alfie
Until you find the love you've missed you're nothing, Alfie
When you walk let your heart lead the way
And you'll find love any day, Alfie
Alfie . . .

I walk along the city streets you used to walk along with me,
And every step i take recalls how much in love we used to be.
Oh, how can i forget you?
When there is always something there to remind me
Always something there to remind me
I was born to love you, and i will never be free
You'll always be a part of me, whoa oh whoa

When shadows fall, i passed a small cafe where we would dance at night
And i can't help recalling how it felt to kiss and hold you tight
Oh, how can i forget you?
When there is always something there to remind me
Always something there to remind me
I was born to love you, and i will never be free
You'll always be a part of me, whoa oh whoa, whoa oh whoa

If you should find you miss the sweet and tender love we used to share
Just come back to the places where we used to go, and i'll be there
Oh, how can i forget you?
When there is always something there to remind me
Always something there to remind me
I was born to love you, and i will never be free
You'll always be a part of me, whoa oh whoa

Never love another baby
I'll never will forget you baby
Oh you'll always be a part of me
Whoa, yessir baby
Never never never baby

Nowhere to go
To find the answer
'Cause there is
No one but you to find it

No world to save
Except the one in your heart
There's no love to lose
You'll lose it

No time to lose
No tears to waste
No world to change
No love to make but yours

I know that things may never ever change
Things will stay the same
But I know love is never far away
Always taking aim

Any day now i will hear you say "goodbye, my love"
And you'll be on your way
Then my wild beautiful bird, you will have flown, oh
Any day now i'll be all alone, whoa-oa-oa-oa-oa

Any day now, when your restless eyes meet someone new
Oh, to my sad surprise
Then the blue shadows will fall all over town, oh
Any day now love will let me down, whoa-oa-oa-oa-oa

Oh my wild beautiful bird, you will have flown, oh
Any day now i'll be all alone

I know i shouldn't want to keep you
If you don't want to stay-ay
Until you go forever
I'll be holding on for dear life
Holding you this way
Begging you to stay

Any day now when the clock strikes "go"
You'll call it off
And then my tears will flow
Then the blue shadows will fall all over town, oh
Any day now love will let me down cuz you won't be around

Don't fly away, my beautiful bird
Don't, don't fly away

Anyone who ever loved
Could look at me and know that I love you
Anyone who ever dreamed
Could look at me and know I dream of you
Knowing I love you, so

Anyone who had a heart
Would take me in his arms and love me too
You couldn't really have a heart
And hurt me like you hurt me
And be so untrue
What am I to do?

Every time you go away
I always say this time it's goodbye dear
Loving you the way I do
I take you back
Without you I'd die dear
Knowing I love you, so

Anyone who had a heart
Would take me in his arms and love me too
You couldn't really have a heart
And hurt me like you hurt me
And be so untrue
What am I to do?

Knowing I love you, so
Anyone who had a heart
Would take me in his arms and love me too
You couldn't really have a heart
And hurt me like you hurt me
And be so untrue
Anyone who had a heart could love me too
Anyone who had a heart would surely take me
In his arms and always love me
Why won't you? , yeah

Anyone who had a heart would love me too, yeah
Anyone who had a heart would simply take me
In his arms and always love me
Why won't you?
Why won't you?

Once in your life you will find her
Someone who turns your heart around
And next thing you know
Yor're closing down the town
Wake up and it's still with you
Even though you left her way across town
Wonderin' to yourself
Hey what have I found

When you get caught
Between the moon and new york city
I know it's crazy but it's true
If you get caught

Between the moon and new york city
The best that you can do
The best that you can do
Is fall in love

Arthur, he does as he pleases
All of his life his master's toys
And deep in his heart he's just
He's just a boy
Living his life one day at a time
He's showing himself a pretty good time
He's laughing about the way
They want him to be

(chorus):
Blue on blue, heartache on heartache
Blue on blue now that we are through
Blue on blue, heartache on heartache
And i find i can't get over losing you

I walk along the street we used to walk
Two by two, lovers pass
And as they're passing by, i could die
'cause you're not here with me
Now the trees are bare
There's sadness in the air
And i'm as blue as i can be

(chorus)

Night after lonely night, we meet in dreams
As i run to your side
You wait with open arms, open arms
That now are closed to me
Through a veil of tears
Your vision disappears
And i'm as blue as i can be

(repeat chorus and fade)

I'll never change you
I'll never try to
I'll never understand love
I'll never get it

I'll never ever change you
I'll never try to
'Cause you're my only
Broken valentine
Just like you are

I'll never understand love
I'll never get it
But can't give it up

I'll never ever change you
I'll never try to
You'll be my only
Broken valentine
Just like you are

I'll never understand love
I'll never get it
But can't give it up

I'll never ever change you
I'll never try to
'Cause you're my only
Broken valentine
Just like you are

Why do birds suddenly apear
Every time you are near?
Just like me
They long to be
Close to you

Why do stars fall down from the sky
Every time you walk by?
Just like me
They long to be

On the day that you were born
And the angels got together
And decided to create a dream come true
So they sprinkled moon dust
In your hair of gold
And starlight in your eyes of blue

That is why
All the girls in town
Follow you all around
Just like me
They long to be

Do you know the way to San Jose?
I've been away so long. I may go wrong and lose my way.
Do you know the way to San Jose?
I'm going back to find some peace of mind in San Jose.
L.A. is a great big freeway.
Put a hundred down and buy a car.
In a week, maybe two, they'll make you a star
Weeks turn into years. How quck they pass
And all the stars that never were
Are parking cars and pumping gas
Do you know the way to San Jose?
They've got a lot of sapce.There'll be a place where I can stay
I was born and raised in San Jose
I'm going back to find some peace of mind in San Jose.
Fame and fortune is a magnet.
It can pull you far away from home
With a dream in your heart you're never alone.
Dreams turn into dust and blow away
And there you are without a friend
You pack your car and ride away
I've got lots of friends in San Jose
Do you know the way to San Jose?
Can't wait to get back to San Jose

Dreams will come
And dreams will go
I'll be there beside you

All the time
And everywhere
Standing there beside you

I'll love you
And you'll love me
Hopefully forever

Dreams will come
And dreams will go
I'll be there beside you

Things fade away
Then it's over
That's what they say

I've been hoping for a better day
It's a long time coming, but I wait anyway
'Til the dark clouds have all blown away
And the sun shines again

I keep trying, I've been holding on
Though the days are empty in a world that's gone wrong
Life's a miracle or a foolish tale
I don't know, go ask Shakespeare

Love's the answer, like I said before
It's the one thing needed, maybe now even more
Love's the secret we've been looking for
'Til the sun shines again

So I keep hoping and I'm holding on
There's a cold wind blowing, but I know love is strong
There will come a day when sorrow is gone
And the sun shines again

I keep hoping for a better day
It's a long time coming, but I wait anyway
Life's a miracle or a foolish tale
I don't know, go ask Shakespeare

Now I have nothing, so God give me strength
'Cause I'm weak in her wake
And if I'm strong I might still break
And I don't have anything to share
That I won't throw away into the air

* That song is sung out
This bell is rung out
She was the light that I'd bless
She took my last chance at happiness
So God give me strength, God give me strength

I can't hold onto god give me strength
When the phone doesn't ring
And I'm lost in imagining
Everything that kind of love is worth
As I tumble back down to the earth

* repeat

God if she'd grant me her indulgence and decline
I might as well wipe her from my memory
Fracture the spell as she becomes my enemy
Maybe I was washed out like a lip-print on his shirt
See, I'm only human, I want him to hurt
I want him
I want him to hurt

Since I lost the power to pretend
That there could ever be a happy ending

* Repeat

The moment I wake up
Before I put on my make-up
I say a little prayer for you
While combing my hair now
And wond'ring what dress to wear now
I say a little prayer for you

Forever
and ever
you'll stay in my heart

★나는당신을위해짧은기도를하고있죠★

아침에눈을뜨자마자
화장을 하기도 전에
나는당신을위해짧은기도를한답니다.
지금, 내머리를빗으면서도,
오늘은어떤옷을입을까생각하면서도
나는당신을위해짧은기도를하고있죠.


영원히, 당신은내맘속에머물거에요.
영원히 당신만을사랑하겠어요.
영원토록, 우리는절대로헤어지지않을꺼에요.
둘이서영원토록함께하는것,
그것이바로운명일꺼에요.
당신없이혼자산다는건,
내겐가슴찢어지는슬픔일뿐이에요.

버스를타려고달려가죠.
버스를타고서도, 난우리생각을한답니다.
그리고당신을위해짧은기도를 하죠.
일하는동안에도, 간신히시간을내어
커피한잔하는휴식시간동안에조차도
나는당신을위한 짧은기도를되뇌인답니다.

I have to say that we should finish it now
Before we weaken 'cause we already know this is wrong
I could give in, sometimes I think that I will
Despite the temptation I try to be very strong
In my reluctance seems a surprise
It's not 'cause I don't want you

But I just
Know I must... hesitate

Because I still have that other girl
In my head
I still have that other girl in my head

There may be ugly rumors that
I have been lying
There may be angry tears, but
They're never worth the crying

That is why
Sometimes I... hesitate

Because I still have that other girl
In my head
I still have that other girl in my head
I still have that other girl in my head

I have to say that we should finish it now
Before we weaken 'cause we already know this is wrong
I could give in, sometimes I think that I will
Despite the temptation I try to be very strong
In my reluctance seems a surprise
It's not 'cause I don't want you

But I just
Know I must... hesitate

Because I still have that other girl
In my head
I still have that other girl in my head

There may be ugly rumors that

There may be angry tears, but

In my head

Knowing when to leave
Go while the going is good
Knowing when to leave may be the smartest thing anyone can learn.
Go!
I'm afraid my heart isn't very smart.
Fly while your still have your wings
Knowing when to leave will never let you reach the point of no return.
Fly!
Foolish as it seems, i still have my dreams
So i keep hoping, day after day, as i wait for the man,
And night after night as i wish for a love that can be
Though i'm sure that no one can tell when a wish is a hope,
Somehow i feel there is happiness waiting for me.
When someone walks in your life, you'd just better be sure he's right.
`cause if he's wrong there's are heartaches and tears you must face.
Keep both of your eyes on the door and never let it get out of sight
Just be prepared when the time comes and you went away
Sail when the wind starts to blow
But like a fool i don't know when to leave.

make it easy on yourself
Oh, breaking up is so very hard to doVerse 1:
If you really love him
And there's nothing i can do
Don't try to spare my feelings
Just tell me that we're through 1:
And make it easy on yourself

Can't compare to his caress
No words of consolation
Will make me miss you less

So run to him

And make it easy on yourself
Make it easy on yourself
'cause breaking up is so very hard to do
Verse 2:And if the way i hold you
Can't compare to his caress
No words of consolation
Will make me miss you less
My darling, if this is goodbye
I just know i'm gonna cry
So run to him
Before you start crying tooOh, baby, it's so hard to do

I just got out my little red book
The minute that you said goodbye
I thumbed right through my little red book
I wasn't gonna sit and cry
And I went from A to Z
I took out every pretty girl in town
They danced with me and as I held them

* All I did was talk about you
Hear your name and I'd start to cry
There's just no getting over you... oh, no...

There ain't no girl in my little red book
Who could ever replace your charms
And each girl in my little red book
Knows you're the one I'm thinkin' of
Oh won't you please come back
Without your precious love I can't go on
Where can love be I need you so much

*Repeat

Oh won't you please come back
Without your precious love I can't go on
It's haunting me I need you so much

All I did was talk and talk about you
Hear your name and I'd start to cry
There's just no getting over you
All I did was talk and talk about you
There's just no getting over you... oh no

I just got out my little red book
The minute that you said goodbye
I thumbed right through my little red book
I wasn't gonna sit and cry

I went from A to Z
I took out every pretty girl in town
They danced with me and as I held them

All I did was talk about you
Hear your name and I'd start to cry
There's just no getting over you, oh no

There ain't no girl in my little red book
Who could ever replace your charms
And each girl in my little red book
Knows you're the one I'm thinkin' of

Oh won't you please come back
Without your precious love I can't go on
Where can love be I need you so much

All I did was talk about you
Hear your name and I'd start to cry
There's just no getting over you, oh no

Oh won't you please come back
It's haunting me I need you so much

All I did was talk about you
Hear your name and I'd start to cry
There's just no getting over you, oh no

So many times
Said it was forever
Said our love would always be true
Something in my heart always knew
I'd be lying here beside you
On my own
On my own
On my own

So many promises never should be spoken
Now I know what loving you cost
Now we're up to talking divorce
And we weren't even married
On my own
Once again now
One more time
By myself

No one said it was easy
But it once was so easy
Well I believed in love
Now here I stand
I wonder why

I'm on my own
Why did it end this way
On my own
This wasn't how it was supposed to be

On my own
I wish that we could do it all again

So many times
I know I should have told you
Losing you it cut like a knife
You walked out and there went my life
I don't want to live without you
On my own
On my own
On my own
Chorus repeat

This wasn't how it was supposed to end
I wish that we could do it all again
I never dreamed I'd spend one night alone
On my own, I've got to find where I belong again
I've got to learn how to be strong again
I never dreamed I'd spend one night alone
By myself, by myself
I've got to find out what was mine again
My heart is saying that it's my time again
And I have faith that I will shine again
I have faith in me
On my own
On my own
On my own

Such a picture of loveliness
Didn't you notice the resemblance?
Doesn't it look like she could speak?
Those eyes I tried to capture
They are lost to me now forever
They smile for someone else

Funny, how looks can be deceiving
But she's not easily
Painted from memory

You'd think that I would know by now
Those eyes I tried to capture
They are lost to me now forever
They smile for someone else

And so this had to be
Painted from memory

She is gone, and I must accept it
She is lost to me now
But I can't look away just yet though
She smiles for someone else

And so this had to be
Painted from memory

Funny, now I can see
How looks can be deceiving

And so this had to be
Painted from memory

Funny, now I can see
How looks can be deceiving

Such a picture of loveliness
Didn't you notice the resemblance?
Doesn't it look like she could speak?
Those eyes I tried to capture
They are lost to me now forever

Painted from memory

You'd think that I would know by now

How looks can be deceiving

And so this had to be
Painted from memory

How looks can be deceiving

There was a song
I remember
Said “What the world needs now…”

Where is the love
Where did it go
Who broke our hearts
Cause we need to know
Where are the dreams
That we once knew?
Please explain
Please explain

Where is the love
Where did it go
Who broke our hears
Cause we need to know
Where are the dreams
That we once knew?
Please explain
Please explain

The sun and the moon are crying
The stars and our hearts
Crying
Please explain
The fathers and mothers crying
Sisters and brothers crying
Please explain
Please explain

The sun and the moon are crying
The stars and our hears
Crying

If I got on my knees and I pleaded with you
Not to go but to stay in my arms
Would you walk out the door
Like you did once before

This time be different
Please stay don't go

If I call out your name like a prayer
Would you leave me alone with my tears
Knowing I need you so
Would you still turn and go
This time be different in some way
Don't go please stay

You took me away from the rest of the world
When you taught me to love you like this
Now I hang my head when I think how you lied
But I still can be saved by your kiss

I loved you before I even knew your name
I wanted to give you my heart
But when you came back after leaving me one time
Oh I knew, yes I knew that the heartaches would start

If I told you my life was a song
That was written for you, you alone
Would you hurt all my pride
Oh, till I cry this time be different
Please stay
Oh, this time be different in some way
Don't go please stay

I'm all through with promises, promises now
I don't know how I got the nerve to walk out
If I shout, remember I feel free
Now I can look at myself and be proud
I'm laughing out loud

Oh, promises, promises
This is where those promises, promises end
I don't pretend that what was wrong can be right
Every night I sleep now, no more lies
Things that I promised myself fell apart
But I found my heart

Oh, promises, their kind of promises, can just destroy a life
Oh, promises, those kind of promises, take all the joy from life
Oh, promises, promises, my kind of promises
Can lead to joy and hope and love
Yes, love!!

Every night I sleep now, no more lies
Things that I promised myself fell apart
But I found my heart

Oh, promises, their kind of promises can just destroy a life
Oh, promises, those kind of promises take all the joy from life
Oh, promises, promises, my kind of promises
Can lead to joy and hope and love
Yes, love!!

Raindrops keep fallin'on my head,
and just like the guy whose
feet are too big for his bed,
Nothin'seems to fit those
raindrops are fallin'on my head
They keep fallin'

So I just did me some talkin'to the sun,
And I said I didn't like the
way he got things done
sleepin'on the job those
raindrops are fallin'on my head
They keep fallin'

But there's one thing,I know.
The blues they send to meet me
won't defeat me
It won't be long till happiness
steps up to greet me.

Raindrops keep fallin'on my head,
but that doesn't mean my
eyes will soon be turnin'red
Cryin'not for me'cause
I'm never gonna stop the
rain by complainin'

Because I'm free
nothin' worryin' me
