Long Long Time - Rod Mckuen

섬진강 길가에 벌써 벚꽃이 피어 발길들 북적이게 한다.
누가 그랬다. 옛날에는 꽃이 들어오지 않았는데 어느 날부터 꽃이 피었구나 하고
마음 속에 울컥 하는 것이 생겨나기 시작했다고
젊고 싱싱한 나이에 그래 그 자체가 꽃일진대 꽃이 눈에 밟힐리야
귀밑머리 하얀 나이에 들면 옛날이 그립듯이 꽃도 그러한 것인가.
그럼 나는 뭐냐 나는 옛날부터 일찌기 늙어버렸다는 말인가






Long Long Time - Rod Mckuen

Love will abide, take things in stride
Sounds like good advice but there's no one at my side
And time washes clean love's wounds unseen
That's what someone told me but I don't know what it means

Cause I've done everything I know to try and make you mine
And I think I'm gonna love you for a long long time

Caught in my fears, blinking back the tears
I can't say you hurt me when you never let me near
And I never drew one response from you
All the while you fell all over people you never knew

Cause I've done everything I know to try and make you mine
And I think it's gonna hurt me for a long long time

Wait for the day you'll go away
Knowing that you warned me of the price I'd have to pay
And life's full of flaws
Who knows the cause?
Living in the memory of a love that never was

Cause I've done everything I know to try and change your mind
And I think I'm gonna miss you for a long long time

Cause I've done everything I know to try and make you mine
And I think I'm gonna love you for a long long time.
